What does the RF need to do? Stay silent, but arrange to have their titles stripped, with the PM, or another public representative, making that announcement. No appearance at the Coronation. No titles for their children, as MM would simply hijack them to her advantage.
It is untenable to have British titled RF members going around the world trashing Britain's Head of State, the Royal Family, Britain's Constitutional Monarchy, the British people, the Commonwealth (SA is furious), and disrespecting British military codes of conduct.

Let's get something really straight. Hillary Clinton's not gong to the rust belt or anywhere else had very little to do with her loss. She lost the election because she was highly unsuitable to be president. She lost because she is corruption personified. She lost because she's incapable of debating issues, instead resorting to personal, vicious attacks against her opponents. She lost because she is a compulsive liar. She lost because she created the worst mess ever in the Middle East. She lost because she should have been charged with recent criminal offences: setting up a private server, over which confidential and classified material was transmitted; lying to congress about her server, emails and Benghazi; tampering with and destroying subpoenaed evidence. She lost because she confused unethical Rules for Radicals with principled goals. She lost because she enabled a serial, sexual abuser for years, as she saw him as her ticket to her ambitions and was too cowardly to go it alone. She lost because the Clinton Foundation was nothing but a greedy, corrupt, illegal, pay-for-play scheme. She lost because she has serious health issues. Etc. And now we know she accused President Trump of doing exactly what she was doing: colluding with the Russians in the centre of a devious, traitorous, criminal plot to bring him down, while President Trump has done nothing wrong. A highly unethical, dishonest, liar and distasteful woman. Pray that she never rises from her deep pile of ashes.

Harry conveniently missed out that, at the time, he and Meghan wanted to be half in, continuing to represent the British Head of State, while enjoying all the royal perks and benefits, and half out working on unacceptable commercial endeavors (that turned out to be trashing the Royal Family). Given Harry's royal background, he should have been fully aware that such a proposal would be totally unacceptable and anathema to any role representing the Head of State.
He said Meghan cried when he told her it was a no-go. On the surface that makes no sense whatsoever. She hated the Royal Family, mocked the traditions and wanted to do it her way, so why would she cry at the prospect of being fully out? Because, in my view, she did not want to lose royal perks, glory, and admiration, but in her own way.
That scenario would also explain her vitriolic hatred of the Royal Family and her nasty, side-angled, passive-aggresive, smiling mockery and disdain for them.
A very troubled duo on a fast track to the bottom.

Africa is undoubtedly beautiful, but the continent is being destroyed with corrupt leaders, civil war, poverty and overpopulation. You can guarantee, when Harry visits Africa, he stays in the most luxurious hotels or safari lodges, protected from the troubles of Africa. Yes, he has his Lesotho charity, but you can be sure he doesn't hunker down overnight in a dung-walled, earthen-floored, thatched roof hut, as millions in Africa do. By the way, when was Harry's last visit to Lesotho? Too expensive for him to pay his own way there, or actually do the work to run a charity that others did for him when he was a royal prince?
This couple is devoid of self-awareness. Apparently unable to grasp how inappropriate it is for him (with no credentials) to speak at the UN. As they were escorted into the building, his wife's body language oozed look at me. That's what they are really all about. Harry doesn't understand it is all about her; that she is using him.

Hillary Clinton, with her dangerous, naive, regime-change policy, without a clue about actual dynamics on the ground, was the most instrumental (more than France) in bringing, chaos, fractional divisions, civil war, death, destruction and collapse to Libya, the consequences of which have been manifested in the most serious crisis in Europe since WW2, following people smuggling and a slave trade out of Libya and into Europe.

@shirleybiggers10 We are always shouting for transparency, directness and honesty from our elected officials. That is exactly what the world got with President Trump. He said it as it is. Those who were exposed threw ridicule, slander, libel, epithets, lies, sedition & bullying his way. The uninformed or extreme-left parroted the slew of ridicule from a deeply troubling, corrupt media. How ironic that pretty well everything President Trump said is turning out to be entirely accurate. Everything the left threw at him, turning out to be conspiracy theory and outright lies. How ironic that Obama, a master of eloquent speech, turned out to head the most corrupt administration in US history.
President Trump, with his business acumen, delivered the best economy in the US EVER for all groups (African Americans, Black Youth, Hispanics, White Westerners, and Women (for women the best in 75 years). He increased manufacturing, jobs (the lowest unemployment rates for all those groups), Faught tooth-and-nail to end exploitative outsourcing/insourcing of cheap labor that keeps wages down, destroys jobs, decimates cities, with pushback from Democrats at every turn. They, along with their colluding CEOs want the status quo: cheap labor to fill their already bulging bank accounts. He dramatically reduced taxes and eliminated needless, wasteful bureaucratic regulations, giving business a huge boost and filling consumers' pockets with their own hard-earned money. I could go on and on about President Trump's successes, his honesty and courage, the details of the plot against him; however, it won't be necessary. Intelligent people who supported Biden for whatever misguided reason are WAKING UP. Dysfunctional democracy always turns to smack uninformed voters.

I have to admit that I, a long-time supporter of the British monarchy, started having doubts, as Meghan Markle appeared. I watched a woman curtsey to her and was chilled. My doubts about MM started from the beginning. She is an uninformed, woke political activist. She had publicly slandered the leader of Britain's greatest ally, not with any evidence or substantiation, but echoing CNN epithets, such as racist and misogynist, without any proof whatsoever. It was, then, astounding to me that the Royal Family/Queen would have allowed the marriage to proceed with a job of representing Britain's head of state attached. At a maximum, the marriage should, in my view, have had conditions: no royal benefits, no royal job, no representation on behalf of the head of state.
Astonishing when one considers Princess Margaret was given permission to marry Peter Townsend with those conditions attached: no royal benefits, no royal job, no representation on behalf of the head of state. Yet Peter Townsend had credentials and was highly respected by the public, an ace WW2 pilot, an equerry to the King, and much loved and admired by the Royal Family. He was discreet and diplomatic. Never spoke out of turn or inappropriately and wouldn't have dreamed of slandering the leader of the ally that saved Britain from losing the war to Germany. But I doubt that MM even knows much about WW2 other than it occurred.

PJW, I think your lead heading is not fair. I don't think Obama was whining about white privilege in the derogatory way that phrase is now used. Rather, he was bemoaning the inability of Kenyans to be proactively self-sufficient, confident and proud. Of course in 1990, when this film was made, whites were probably served first in hotels, because they were perceived as tourists or guest government workers (with more tip money) than blacks, albeit the practice of serving whites first is not a practice to be admired.
I was once an Obama supporter. His book, "Dreams From My Father," was a motivator. He described this trip in that book. One has to give him kudos for his engagement with his estranged paternal family. They were living in poor circumstances very foreign to Obama. His father was a father in name only, otherwise absent. His father was also a drunk, whom I believe lost his job and was subsequently killed in a car crash as a result. I am not sure that, under the same circumstances, I would have been able to be so engaging and charming.
My support of Obama was a lesson learned. I didn't do enough research about him. I believed his narratives. Even, with great discomfort, wrote some articles supporting some of his positions -- with great discomfort because deep down I did not agree. A lesson for people to really know the facts and truth about their politicians and to treat their own beliefs with great integrity..
When I watch this video, despite being a true Trump supporter and conservative, I come away with a sadness that Obama's presidency turned out to be the most corrupt in U.S. political history.

The latest news about Svalbard is extremely troubling. Celia Blomdahl, a Norwegian who lives in Svalbard, has a very popular YouTube channel about life in Longyearbyen, the village in Svalbard. A place of amazing beauty, albeit w/ harsh winter weather. She has featured the Russian village, Barentsburg. The main industry in both Longyearbyen and Barentsburg is tourism - coal mining, a historical past. Barentsburg is interesting because of the history of its soviet past. Now it has tours to see the historical buildings, walkway to the mine, and great restaurants. Longyearbyen is fascinating, because every benefit of modern life is available there - so surprising in a place so close to the North Pole.
Blocking supplies to the people in Barentsburg is beyond EVIL. What on earth has happened to the collective West that it so easily destroys people's lives, including death in Ukraine, for a manufactured war to tear Russia and Russians apart for MIC profits and potential to plunder resources. This Western aggression is really SICK. Decent people must start vocally and loudly standing up against it.

Note to Hillary Clinton; Millions knew that you would lose; did not expect you to win. The vibe was a massive win for President Trump, as you were literally chased away from a Latino rally, with shouts of, "You are not welcome here," as Trump attracted hundreds of thousands at his rallies and online.
You were a failure from the time a democrat fired you when you were practising law, for being "an unethical and dishonest lawyer and a liar."
And now, you are making a complete fool of yourself. Only the uninformed or those devoid of honesty, ethics, and decency want to continue having anything to do with you. Shame on any woman who did and still supports you, an enabler of a serial, sexual abuser.

@shadowfuture1378 Actually no. Joe Biden is a thief squatting in someone else's house. He did not win the election. Not by a long shot. You can call it a totalitarian coup. Full blown totalitarianism, the leader of the opposition to it, censored, silenced and wrongly accused. Playbook insurrection, complete with marauding terrorists attacking, killing, destroying, burning, smashing, breaking-in, and occupying in American cities, with a nod from the totalitarian authorities.

A few years ago, I started reading the Daily Mail Online for a while. (Much to be said about the pros and cons of that newspaper.) I was aghast at the vitriolic, vile, relentless attacks and bullying in the comment sections against the Duchess of Cambridge and to a lesser degree against Prince William - also against Prince Philip, full of libel and name calling around his "being Greek and German." So shocked by the uncalled-for criticism and ignorance, I actually wrote to the editors about it, naively believing the outlet had the power to stop it -- that such vitriol and bullying did not constitute free speech. But here is my point: Catherine, William, Philip and the other royals simply ignored the filth and ignorance flung their way and got on with it, representing the Head of State and Britain with grace and dignity. Before Meghan Markle started her woke lecturing and poor-me complaints, I saw no such vitriol against her. She did and does not have the grace and understanding of service and threw away the best opportunity she had to actually make a difference in the world through choice charities and with discretion and diplomacy. I hope she never dares set a foot in Britain again.

What is going on? A profound failure of education (U.S., Canada, Australia, UK, Europe, Brazil (latter now being overhauled). Total ignorance about history, geography, political science (socialism/communism and its guaranteed collapse - China in the wings), economics, finance, business, science,
Found myself walking in the opposite direction to hoards of screeching, shouting women the day after President Trump was elected. I stopped some and asked incredulously what they were marching about. Out came plethoras of epithets against Trump. Racist, misogynist, etc., parroting CNN, MSNBC et al. When I asked for specifics of his platform, not one had a clue. When I asked about Hillary Clinton's platform and record, not one had a clue. They were ignorant about the issues. Bottom line: APPALLING EDUCATION STANDARDS ARE A MAJOR ASPECT OF THE BREAKDOWN IN SOCIETY. Ignorant electorates vote for ignorant candidates.

Have you published one word about the Ukrainian genocide against Donbass Russians (by 2021, over 14,000 Donbass Russian men, women and children had been killed in that genocide, a prime reason for Russia's SMO, after the US/West, including Canada, had refused Putin's relentless calls for diplomacy to end the genocide. It continues today, as independent reporters have been reporting daily from the Donbass, with live video, as the Ukrainian forces target civilian areas where they know there are no Russian forces.

"Dr." Baxter, in my view, a vile, unprofessional woman. If a male professor had acted in the same way, he likely would have been fired from the university. In the end, though, Dr. Kylie Moore-Gilbert is well rid of Ruslan Hodorov, a light-weight coward, despite any anxiety he experienced at the start of her capture because of his background. Happiness is waiting for this beautiful and articulate woman, Kylie Moore-Gilbert, and I am sure a decent, courageous, intelligent man. Maybe Ruslan will suffer guilt and regrets about not stepping up to the plate for his wife and the prospects of life with a lesser woman. On reading more about this case, I discovered Kylie Moore-Gilbert is a cousin of Julian Assange. Another wrongly imprisoned person who must be freed.

Interestingly, Putin has advised that the Ukraine crisis was not substantively discussed in the pre-meetings in Riyadh, as re-establishing trust and working towards re-establishing relations and cooperation have to come first. He has also said that the aggressors are not in a position to demand anything from Russia.
After WW1, the economically debilitating German reparations resulted in the rise of Hitler and WW2. Now we have a situation where Trump is demanding debilitating reparations, in the form of one-sided deals, from Ukraine, its foremost ally and proxy in its war against Russia. You couldn't make it up. The Ukraine War is a US-initiated and funded war. It is culpable for the destruction of Ukraine. It has lost the war and must eat that, despite a new president, who does have the power to end it. Trump would do well to just walk away. Announce that the US will no longer support, fund, supply, or weaponize Ukraine. Order NATO and all US military personnel out of Ukraine. Forget about his wheeling and dealing to recoup sunk costs. Agree to Putin's terms that are not detrimental to the US. Create profitable cooperation and trade with Russia to ultimately earn way more than $350 billion for the US.

OMG, this teachers' union president is a blinking neon light of why schools are failing so miserably. I believe revamping schooling is a priority for returning society to decency and opening opportunities for students. Some steps towards that outcome:
Ban teachers' unions.
Make political indoctrination of students by teachers a criminal offence.
End tenure/fire lousy teachers.
Return basic mandatory subjects and add a few (English grammar, reading/literature, communications, math, all sciences including biology, chemistry, biochemistry, physics, quantum physics, cosmology, etc., history, civics, political science, economics, finance, investments, technology, life planning (correlating goals with plans for family, career, finances, interests).
Re-introduce discipline, expectations, meritocracy, consequences.
Uniforms.
Partnerships and training with sponsoring companies.
Partnerships with parents.
Eliminate middle administrative management.
Re-introduce the arts and fitness (choice of sports, dance, gym).
Student participation in maintenance of school buildings and grounds.
Zero tolerance for identity politics and affirmative action.
Ban discussions/courses about sexual orientation.
Classes in English.
Motto of one human race.

Patrick Sanders' call for a British citizen army is abhorrent on three fronts:
(1) Conscripting British men (and women) to fight a war against Russia! Why? For what? Russia, a new country that emerged from the collapse of the USSR, just 32 years old (quite different from its time as a socialist state of the USSR) - has never - not once - threatened or invaded Britain. In fact, prior to February 24, 2022, Russia and Britain engaged in mutually beneficial trade, ended after cowardly sanctions against Russia, that have boomeranged to substantially increase Western energy prices and send the British economy into a tailspin.
(2) Forcing young British men and women to die on the frontlines of a manufactured British war against Russia, forgetting for a moment the arrogance of believing little Britain could defeat Russia, but not to worry, psychopathic warmongers, such as Patrick Sanders, don't care about fatalities. Their continued calls for more and more death and destruction in Ukraine for a US war against Russia, with 500,000+ unwilling Ukrainian conscripts now KIA for this needless, evil war, is all the proof we need of the British government's total disregard for fatalities of war, as long as the elites keep pulling in their MIC profits.
(3) Total disrespect of the British people, using a euphemistic "citizen army" in an attempt to pull the wool over their eyes about the realty: forced conscription with the risk of death for pointless, manufactured wars for MIC profits.

Mifsud obtained a PhD from Queen's University, Belfast. Hillary Clinton recently appointed chancellor of Queen's University, Belfast. Coincidence? Or connection? Why would a university risk its reputation appointing a chancellor who is seeped in past corruption (on-going lies, Whitewater, Cattle Futures, Travelgate, Vince Foster, campaign finance irregularities, etc.) and recent criminal actions (independent server over which classified information was sent; lying to Congress about her server, emails, and Benghazi; tampering with and destroying subpoenaed evidence; pay-for-play slush fund masquerading as a charitable foundation; funding a false dossier to be used in a coup against an opponent/president of the United States. Not to mention her disastrous policies and actions in the Middle East that unleashed civil war, death, destruction, and the worst crisis in Europe since WW2.

Of course Mariupol is the headquarters of the Azov Militia that has been shelling the Russians in the Donbass. One of the main reasons for Putin's invasion: to defeat the Azov Militia to stop the shelling. So far the Azov Militia (with help from the Ukrainian Army) has killed over 14,000 Russian men, women and children in the Donbass. So is the attack of this city so wrong? I don't think so. As you see, the civilians are leaving. One of the war tactics of the Russian Army is to create humanitarian corridors for civilians to leave (that's why the invasion is called a slow invasion. It takes time to set up those corridors).
Unfortunately, the Azov Militia has been setting itself up in civilian areas to use the civilians as shields. In some cases, they don't allow the civilians to leave, which results in human collateral damage - the same tactic used by Is. terrorists in Syria. That is very wrong/evil. Ukrainians who have managed to flee out of Ukraine have confirmed that this is what the Azov Militia has been doing.
The Azov Militia is a mercenary militia entrenched in Ukraine, managed and funded by corrupt oligarchs. It is an extreme-right, white supremacist militia, self-described as n.a.**z. is. When Putin talks about denazification of Ukraine, he's not talking about Ukrainians, but about this threatening militia and its overlords.
War is awful, human life, our most precious possession. This war could have been avoided. Putin's demands are extremely reasonable:
Neutral Ukraine (no US/NATO, no Azov Militia, both threatening Russia).
Denazification & demilitarization of Ukraine (Azov Militia and its corrupt overlords; US infiltration of NATO on Russia's border - the other day a top NATO official admitted NATO in Ukraine is a mistake).
Recognition of Donetsk and Luhansk in the Donbass as independent republics (They are Russians. They don't want to live in Ukraine, especially after the Ukrainian Government's official discrimination against Russians, and after Ukraine have been shelling and slaughtering them.)
Recognition of Crimea as Russian. (Russia didn't annex Crimea as is reported in the West. It has always been Russian. In 1954 the USSR transferred management of Crimea to Ukraine SSR (remember they were one soviet republic at the time). They didn't swap the Russian population for a UKrainian population, just the administration. In 2014 Crimea voted overwhelmingly (98%) to be with Russia.
This war is Biden's war against Russia, using Ukraine as a proxy. Shredding Russia and Russians with financial and economic sanctions couldn't be more evil. Triggering a mortal invasion of Ukraine to gaslight Russia is treachery of the worst kind. After each Biden threat, Putin and Lavrov called for diplomacy. Shame on all the neocons in the US. Shame on their evil propaganda against Russians, sending uninformed people into a frothing frenzy of unacceptable treachery and hatred.

@elavke5441 Trump wished Harry a lot of luck. He said Harry is going to need it.
Harry's wife had publicly trashed President Trump. Not with any reason, intelligence or factual evidence. She simply slandered him throwing CNN epithets of racist and/or misogynist at him. With that hanging over her, I am totally surprised that the Queen/Royal Family/British Parliament allowed the marriage to go ahead, in addition to their being granted titles and roles to represent the British head of state, the Queen. Harry's wife, a woke activist, had publicly and mindlessly trashed the leader of Britain's greatest ally. When Princess Margaret had wanted to marry Peter Townsend, she was told she could do so, as long as she gave up her titles, royal benefits and role representing the head of state. She decided not to go ahead with the marriage. The irony is that Peter Townsend, although divorced, as Markle was, had an impeccable and admired background as an ace WW2 pilot and equerry to King George VI. If the same restrictions had been put on Harry, it likely would have saved the Royal Family a whole lot of grief, and he might even have decided not to go through with the marriage.

Term limits must be a priority for the next Republican Administration -- retroactive term limits. In particular, sending Pelosi, Waters, McConnell, Nadler, Schumer, Feinstein, as well as other Democrats and Republicans packing. If term limits had been imposed, with common sense, long ago, Biden would not even have been hovering on the edge of the arena, as he was as a no-results, tax-sucking foreign-influence peddler.

Trudeau heading for the job centre? Hardly. He'll get out his skateboard and liaise with Clinton, Obama, Macron, Xi, Schwab, Soros, et al in his spare time. He won't go back to teaching. He was fired from his teaching job in Vancouver for having in inappropriate s**ex**ual affair with a minor. For that reason alone, let alone his destruction of Canada via his wokeism, gender stretching, Critical Race Theory, and massive immigration/migration, he should never be in any leadership position. Shame on all women who vote for this man.

Yes, the man dressed in a blue dress and red high-heeled shoes, hanging on an E wall. He goes free, despite all those rides on the Lolita Express and is even putting in a word recently for his corrupt wife.
We have seen one photo of Andrew with his accuser who looks beyond the age of majority and pretty happy too -- a photo taken twenty years ago, I believe, in some night club. That is hardly evidence of sexual misconduct. His accuser had a middle-class upbringing, affording her the ability to make decisions for herself at the age of 17 -- apparently her age at the time. Interesting how juvenile criminals are often tried as adults, but when it comes to female accusers close to the age of majority, they are considered to be children. I, frankly put no faith in this woman. I have seen too many women wrongly accuse men. Apparently she has already bagged $500,000 in relation to this case, plus large additional amounts as she plugs her story. She appears to be a deep pockets chaser.
Was Andrew unwise to have befriended E? Yes. He has already admitted that. Did others associate with E? Yes, many high-powered individuals -- some for sex, some not -- even Stephen Hawking.
Society has lost all perspective. This case is front and centre because of the potential for money. Meanwhile, the lowest of the low pimps prowl the streets checking on their sexual victims, who come from lower-class homes, don't have the background to make wise decisions, and are most often addicted to drugs. These greasy pumps walk free, as do the vile gang members who traffick pre-teen children to sell into the sex trade.
But, hey, less get the prince. Shame on the state of justice today.

n52nimbus - Your comments are astounding, so ill-informed. You say, "We have a president who does not understand our system of government."?! Do you understand how absurd that comment is? Give just one example of his picking and choosing from the constitution; one example of his not respecting the U.S. system of government. The American system of government is founded on democracy. He won the presidency. Underlying that system of government is the expectation of respect for the office of president. For the first time in U.S. history, there has been an attempted coup against the U.S. government (by no other than career liberal bureaucrats who figured their choice should stand no matter who the American people elected). Not only shocking that, in a long-term and respected democracy, such a coup could have been attempted, but also the most serious crisis in U.S. history. And don't forget for one second that the evidence against these traitors is overwhelming! Didn't know that? Then I suggest you start doing what it takes to find out what is actually going on in the world, because it is very important to know, for the sake of your future. If you glean your information from the mainstream media, such as CNN and MSNBC, you will never know or understand what is actually going on. Not to know the details about the attempted coup, to discount them, support them, or sit back and pretend it didn't happen is seriously dangerous for you and your family.
"To refuse the obligations of international leadership..." What on earth does that mean? International leadership: The people of France are crying out in the streets, "We want Trump." President Trump had the courage to vehemently oppose the outrageous policies and statements of Macron, who will most likely have to resign for his disrespect for his country and its people.
Maybe you are speaking about pulling out from the Paris Agreement on Global Warming. Have you ever read that accord? At least a summary of that accord? My guess is that your answer is, "No." If you don't know what is involved in the accord, how can you possibly be for it? Here are some main reasons why he pulled out. The accord has language that would result in unelected foreign committees having authority in the U.S. The accord amounted to a handout of billions of U.S. tax dollars being paid to under-developed countries whose record for appalling environmental activity is monumental and whose record of aid money being siphoned into pockets of their corrupt leaders is also monumental. The obligations of the U.S. under such an accord was a gift that would keep on giving, while they keep on polluting. Major polluters, such as India and China, were not under the same restrictions under the accord. As the world is a small finite planet, that means, any action on one side of the world deeply affects the other side of the world, so if one side is allowed to carry on global-warming activities, then any restrictions on the other side are useless. And here's the piece de resistance about that deeply flawed accord: The global temperature has not been rising for many years. Environmentalists refer to this as the "PAUSE." Of course, you won't hear about this in the media. It would put a dent in their agendas. You have to seek out the Nobel Prize winners in physics who are discounting the notion. Global Warming has become a deeply entrenched pseudo-scientific issue, perpetuated by those in that spurious industry and politicians who enjoy exploiting and bamboozling the ignorant for votes.
Could it be that you are talking about President Trump's goal to create fair trade agreements and his tough stance against President Xi Jinping of China? The U.S. has had a massive trade deficit for decades. Do you have any idea about the economic consequences of that? Job loss, low wages, lost manufacturing, lower GDP, and trillions of U.S. dollars floating around the world unable to be repatriated to the U.S. because of high taxes, until President Trump came around to greatly reduce taxes. By the way, President Xi and President Trump may have disagreements about trade (albeit it Xi has now made commitments towards fair trade as a result of President Trump's actions), but they greatly respect each other personally. He was very impressed that Ivanka's children speak Mandarin. Do you speak any foreign language in your commitment to globalism? Liberals screamed and whined about President Trump's vow to end NAFTA. That agreement was initiated by Bill Clinton, and is the single most important cause of the decimation of manufacturing, job loss and low wages. President Trump has now signed a much, much better and more up-to-date agreement with Canada and Mexico, after much whimpering and crying from the Canadian "leader," Trudeau, the drama-teacher, without an iota of education in economics, finance, business or investments. Will continue on another response, as this one is getting long.

I have been saying the same thing. He must be exonerated, with the case thrown out of court. The case for a pardon to prevent a Democrat government from re-charging him, if the Democrats were to win the election is interesting. What happened to General Flynn is bone chilling. He should be exonerated, reimbursed for his expenses, paid damages, and the culprits hauled into court to face justice. Without limitation, those culprits include Comey, McCabe, Strzok, Page, possibly Pientka (rumor has it that he's co-operating with the investigations into the illegal charges. If McCain were alive, he would be included on the list. His flunky, Kramer, is on the list of culprits.

In fairness to Trump, we did not know at the time that CoVid was a mild-flu-like disease for most people, albeit dangerous for older people with other chronic disease. We had seen the scary videos from China, as authorities donned hazmat suits and locked people down. Also don't forget that seditious Fauci was a mole in the White House.
Of course, the right thing to do would have been to isolate and protect the old people in nursing homes and those with chronic disease.
Trump is going to face more pushback from his promotion of the vaccines that we now know don't work, albeit, any leader would, of course, have had to rely on the advice of the experts. Little did we know about the corruption oozing among the experts and dollar ding-a-ling altaria motives of the pharma lords, who hated Trump after he legislated that favored-nation clauses be included in their sales agreements, in order to reduce the high price of prescription drugs for working Americans.

n52nimbus Lesson for you. In work and careers, it is results that count; not hard work. I was once an Obama supporter. Huge mistake. He certainly has some good qualities. He's eloquent, an excellent writer, a family man but has had difficulties in his marriage. That's about it. Dabbled in drugs. Went to a third-rate college before Columbia and Harvard. Was a failed community organizer. Pretended to be a centrist, but is actually a globalist and leftist. His legacy is Obamacare, a serious failure. His foreign policy and pick of Hillary Clinton were disasters. The piece de resistance when it comes to Obama, his mentors who supported him through to the presidency, something that has been deliberately hidden. As you research the attempted coup, check his mentors out. If you pride yourself as an American, that story will send chills down your spine. Didn't understand economics or finance.
Trump: not eloquent but straight to the point. Understands economics, finance, business and investments, essential for a successful president. Graduated from a top military academy. Graduated from one of the top business schools in the world. Expanded a multi-million-dollar local development business into a multi-billion-dollar international conglomerate. As an outlier, beat sixteen candidates to become president. Has delivered the best economy, particularly for women, Hispanics, African Americans and youth, ever -- a direct result of his pro-business and tax reducing platform. Highly successful foreign policy. On the verge of creating peace on the Korean Peninsular. Got Xi to agree to initiate changes for fair trade. Ended the disastrous Clinton NAFTA that has been directly responsible for massive American job loss and downward pressure on wages. Adamantly against exploitive outsourcing and insourcing for cheap labor (reason CEOs are against him). I could go on and on.
There was a time when I would say Obama was a lousy president but a nice man. His shadow government and campaigning against President Trump (against the expectation for American former presidents to leave and behave with decency and diplomacy has thrown any notion of his being a decent person out the window.
Unfortunately the democrats have turned far left, with socialism, open borders, sanctuary cities, globalism, flawed global warming, massive government spending, higher taxes, irrational and hugely irresponsible hatred for Trump, support of, or silence about, an attempted coup, calls to violence against Conservatives, silencing conservative opinions, massive inward migration, dumbed-down liberal schools, colleges and universities, etc. on their agenda. If they win, that will be the end of America.

n52nimbus - My god, talk about looking in the mirror, seeing your own reflection and, in fright, projecting it on to others. Your comments on this thread are unbelievably uninformed. They would receive a failing grade on any exam at a school, college or university that still practices the principle of meritocracy, with a recommendation for you to enter remedial courses in English, Politics, Government, Economics, Law, Finance, Debating, Logic and Ethics, before moving forward with your education. Amazing how our comments say so much about ourselves. You had the misfortune to receive a pseudo education at some dumbed-down liberal college, and are, yourself, a career, civil servant. Your writing is appalling, and makes no sense whatever, either in structure or content. You are uninformed about the issues, so you resort to ad hominem attacks, epithets and bullying.

@gardiloo Not a penny in reparations should have been paid. There was no genocide. There was apparently inappropriate treatment in boarding schools run by various Catholic-based organizations (not necessarily the Catholic Church). If any reparations need to be paid, it would be for the malicious treatment and should be paid by the organizations involved, not by current Canadian taxpayers who had nothing to do with the schools. There is an excellent, YouTube documentary, by Lauren Southern, on the facts surrounding the claims of mass graves and genocide. It is well-worth watching.
Meanwhile, I doubt that many people (aside from the Indigenous Canadians) who scream for reparations to be paid have ever visited a West Coast Indigenous Reserve. The filth, depredation, and depravity hits you with a cold smack. The smarter approach is for the leaders of these reserves to fix the huge problems among their members. We could focus on the foolishness of setting up such reserves, but that would be backward looking on history that cannot be changed. Without doubt, though, the humane issues on those reserves need to be fixed. Handouts (however titled), will not be fruitful -- they never are.

@aprilwearsgucci -- You are incredibly naive. And appear to know nothing about how win/lose lawyers these days operate.
More to the point, why was a special counsel ever appointed when no crime has been committed? Not one shred of evidence of a crime (or collusion) on the part of Donald Trump, but mounds of evidence (not hearsay, but actual evidence obtained through the justice system and congressional investigations and hearings) against Hillary Clinton, who, it turns out, bought and paid for a phoney Russian dossier (costing over $12 million no less) with false information about Donald Trump, which Russian dossier was used illegally to obtain warrants to spy on a political opponent and his team, in an attempt to influence an election or bring him down if he won. That is treason. That is the worst scandal in U.S. political history.
Shame on any woman who ever supported Hillary Clinton. Shame on any woman who ignores or attempts to mitigate the treasonous activity that has been going on among Obama leftovers in the DOJ, FBI, CIA, IRS, etc. How do they explain their lack of ethics to their children?
If liberals were smart and decent, they would stand against this corruption and demand that their party be cleaned up to move forward with honor and decency.
From a Woman.

@RobynFu - Firstly, shame on the interviewer for dragging general and identity politics into the interview. Secondly, I expect you have fallen in the eyes of others with your comment. To assume that Svetlana Zakharova might be clueless is absurd. That is what you have done. You didn't even wonder if she is clueless. You implied that she is. Your words: "It can't merely be absolute cluelessness...." That implies that her thoughts involve more than just being clueless. How old are you, Robyn? You look very young. Far too young to have gained the wisdom and world experience that Svetlana Zakharova has gained in her position. Young enough that you most likely have had the misfortune of attending dumbed-down schools/universities of today. Did you take Russian history? How about Ukrainian history? Ever heard of Aleksandr Isayevich Solzhenitsyn? Know about the Gulag? What do you know about the demographics of Ukraine -- the proportion of Russians in different parts of Ukraine? The percentage of Russians in Crimea and their wishes? What do you know about the recent situation in Ukraine? The corruption? The Maidan Coup (initiated by the Obama Administration), Ukrainian corruption around the transportation of Russian gas? U.S. Obama interference in Ukraine politics and its push for Ukraine to join the EU, versus develop a commercial/trade relationship with Russia? Do you even have a clue what the conflict between Ukraine and Russia is all about? Do you know why the Democrats in the U.S. have been pushing a baseless "hate Russia" agenda? Svetlana Zakharova is a former member of the Russian Parliament. Clueless she is not. Dancers of her calibre are extremely intelligent. They can't reach that level without high intelligence. Her position (career and marriage) has allowed her to meet the top people all over the world. She is thousands of times more likely to be aware of world situations than you are. "Heartless woman." Are you kidding us? We have recently witnessed a string of men falsely accused of sexual harassment, with the Me-Too movement crying that the women should be believed and be anonymous, while the wrongly accused men are dragged through the courts, publicly named and financially ruined. The actions of the Me-Too Movement against Brett Kavanaugh (for example) were shameful and vile. Svetlana Zakharova gave a correct and honest answer, and she did it with discretion, diplomacy and common sense. Do you know what the word, "integrity" means? It appears not. A person with integrity is true to his/her principles and standards. A thief could have great integrity towards his profession. She has "imperially fallen to corruption." Shame on you for coming up with such nonsense. Shame on you for accusing and passing judgement on someone whom you you have never met and know nothing about, other than to enjoy her impeccable talent, but to toss that out in a hypocritical string of uninformed assumptions, based on misguided feminism, identity politics, political correctness, naivete and a glaring lack of experience, knowledge and wisdom.

The truckers in Toronto were extremely friendly. The protesters were loud but friendly and included the following from all walks of life: old, middle-aged, young, teens, children, even a few babies, dogs, groups, families, singles, white, black brown, indigenous, citizens, immigrants, all classes -- fun times, serious times, not a single security threat. I have to say that the protesters' route was infused with cops at various points along the way. They were polite and friendly but alert.
Too bad that Mayor Tory/Premier Ford decided to close/block roads downtown Toronto, w/ the excuse being hospital access. They blocked roads far from the hospitals, with nothing to do with hospital access. They used the hospitals as an excuse to attempt to minimize the convoy and protests, in my view. I don't think there is one hospital emergency entrance on the main street, University Avenue, about which they were concerned.

@pegd6456 Relevant RIGHT NOW is that the CCP owns Joe Biden. Not hearsay. Proven fact. It dropped $1.5 billion into Hunter Biden's private equity fund. Biden will be soft on China and do its bidding. I expect, if he doesn't, he will be in a whole lot of mortal danger. Shame on all the adults, devoid of ethics, decency, morality and intelligence, who supported and continue to support Joe Biden, without a second thought about his corrupt foreign influence peddling, a fraudulent election, or his participation in framing an innocent man, General Flynn, knowing he was innocent. Top it all off with a frail man who, even without his corruption and appalling principles, should not be president, because he is suffering from obvious dementia.

Read your first book, "The Plot Against the President," Lee Smith. Amazing book, the timelines of corruption and collusion of certain members of the press, so well documented. Look forward to reading this one. What they have done to President Trump and the appalling collateral damage to individuals is beyond evil. Einstein once said, "The world is a dangerous place to live, not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don’t do anything about it." Democrats who have engaged in, ignored, mitigated, or supported these converging plots are nothing less than evil. Accordingly, those who support the Democrats for the 2020 election have crossed the line into evil.
If one Democrat during the Democrat 2020 Primary had, had the guts to condemn outright the attempted coup and attached plots against the president, demand that those responsible be brought to justice, and that the party be cleaned up before moving on, that person could have won the primary. Not one Democrat primary candidate had the guts to act against the evil. Trump 2020 -- a man of courage beyond measure to do what is right and good for America.

@geoh7777 You are most decidedly not an expert. In fact spreading your misinformation is totally irresponsible. The ignorance one finds on the internet is frankly astounding.
The USSR collapsed completely. No exaggeration. Russia is now a capitalist country.
Putin is not a lifelong president. Guess you missed the amendments to the Russian constitution approximately a year and half ago (don't remember the exact date).
Putin is the first to promote the changes in Russia. He belonged to the KGB, just as individuals in the US belong to the CIA.
Hammer and sickle, the mark of the USSR, is no longer used in the Victory Day Parade or anywhere else. Still remains in some former USSR countries on Soviet ruins.
Stalin purged most of the Soviet top officers, sent them to the Gulag, where most perished. Of course, they venerate Soviet top officers who are still alive. They fought in WW2, during which the USSR lost approximately 27 million people in a long, extremely bitter war against Germany. They were, in case you don't know, allies of the UK and the U.S.
Lenin's tomb is retained, because it is part of Russia's history. Unlike the West these days, they have the maturity to view it in the context of a significant part of Russian history, not the present.
I can assure you that modern Russian bomber aircraft are nothing like the Soviet bombers. There were reports about the Russian military jets flying close to US airspace. Not sure if they are true or not. If the stories were featured on CNN et al, they are probably not true. Nevertheless, if they are not in US airspace, they have every right to be there.
Frankly, the US is lucky that Russia/Putin have been so calm about the threats from the US. (1) US interference in Ukraine (Maidan Coup) against Russia. (2) US accusations re Trump/Russia collusion -- complete fabrication originated by Hillary Clinton. (3) US interference in Crimean vote in favor of Russian administration. (4) US sanctions against Russia in connection with lies about Russian hacking of DNC (admitted a lie by Crowdstrike). (5) False narrative about Trump having nefarious communications with the Alfa Bank. Now completely debunked through European court case and other evidence. (6) Attempted interference in Russia Nord Stream pipeline to Europe.
I suggest you read "The Gulag Archipelago." Start learning about Soviet Russia/USSR.
Moscow and Saint Petersburg are two of the most beautiful cities in the world, filled with incredible architecture, art, music, dance, theatre and literature. People are free and can travel and work anywhere (unlike during the USSR). Private enterprise and business are the engines of the Russian economy. Putin is incredibly popular, because he's smart, extremely well informed, empathetic, loves Russia, and creates policy for the benefit of the people. Most importantly, he has created stability, so people support and vote for him.

@evolassunglasses4673 Likely layered answers: Some examples:
The West foolishly opened its borders to the disaffected of the world, without thought about the impact. They brought their baggage with them. They are now voting to positions of power, fellow disaffected immigrants, who hate Western values, and bleeding-heart liberals with Marxist notions. (Ilhan Omar - American hater - and Bill de Blasio - former Sandinista, thankfully now gone - just two cases in point.)
Misguided, altruistic liberals/marxists support migrant flows that have goals to replace Western history, accomplishments, traditions, mores, and culture with who knows what. Meritocracy to be replaced by "equity," meaning "equal outcome," without any regard for the damage they will face without Western meritocracy.
CEOs are intent on insourcing cheap labor to the West to fill their already bulging corporate bank accounts on the backs of cheap labor. (Something Trump was adamantly against, as foolish lemming populations egged on corrupt media that slandered and libeled him daily.) They cover up their real intent with false notions that no citizens or landed immigrants will do the jobs.
Bleeding heart NGOs actually travel to various developing or poor countries and solicit individuals to become migrants. Seems no one has ever wondered how it happens that so many thousands from different, unconnected countries, all at the same time, decide to pull up stakes and head for the West. Hello NGOs.

What a difference listening to a smart, intelligent woman, with incredible accomplishments, after witnessing those, puerile, cackling Democrat women (and men) screeching and yelling at Pete Hegseth with absurd statements that had absolutely nothing to do with his incredible experience, military accomplishments on and off the battlefield, or his future position as SOD. Those women, in front of the world, brought great shame to America, some of them likely an example of the treachery of DEI. I have just started watching. Hopefully they faced themselves in the mirror this morning and will act more like intelligent adults in this hearing.

H's and M's trip to Nigeria was beyond noxious. There are areas of extreme poverty in Nigeria. Makoko, the water slum in Lagos, is one area filled with filth, patchwork housing, and risk of disease, were Nigerians manage to rise above their awful circumstances in community celebrations. For MM, in totally inappropriate, expensive attire, to be flaunting herself, claiming high-status as a Nigerian, on a paid-for trip, just to be seen, ignorant of reality, was sickening.

@abbottshaull9831 You are wrong. Three main reasons for the SMO:
(1) To end the Ukrainian Azov eight-year genocide against Donbass Russian civilians (over 14,000 Russian men, women and children killed to date). Putin consistently asked for diplomacy to stop the genocide that spilled out of the US bloody Maidan Coup. The Minsk Agreement (Ukraine a main signatory, Russia a witness, and France and Germany guarantors) brought peace and independent status for Donbass. Corrupt Ukrainian officials, including Zelensky when he became president, and US officials, refused to honor the agreement. The genocide continued. The guarantors, France and Germany, did not protest the broken agreement. Putin continued to ask for diplomacy to end the genocide.
(2) After Biden entered the White House, after a lull in US interference in Ukraine during the Trump Administration, war-mongrel, Victoria Nuland, was back in Ukraine, interfering and threatening Russia. With Biden backing, Ukraine amassed an even larger military presence at the Donbass border, with the intention of invading to wipe away the Russian issue in Donbass. As Biden's and the West's threats against Russia escalated, Putin and Lavrov again responded with calls for diplomacy. Biden/Ukraine/West refused. To cut a long story short, Putin had no other option but to form his SMO to unilaterally end the genocide. Free, democratic countries admire leaders who take action against genocide. In this instance, the US/Ukraine/UK/EU/West encouraged and sided with the genocide and supported the Nazi regiments infiltrated within the Ukrainian military.
(3) In 1962 the world was on the brink of nuclear war, when the US/Kennedy challenged the USSR to remove its missiles in Cuba on America's doorstep. The US won. It would not and will not tolerate foreign, aggressive military facilities and equipment in its neighborhood. NATO is no longer just a defensive force. It is now very much an offensive force, so why on earth should Putin agree to an offensive US/NATO presence on his border with Ukraine with a history of military aggression against Russia and Ukrainian Russians?

Leave climate change out of it. Human-caused climate change anyway. The notion that humans can influence cosmic weather patterns is preposterous. Is climate naturally changing? No convincing evidence of that. Pollution, though, is a huge and valid issue that is well on its way to destroying the earth, and pollution is most evident in China, Africa, India, SE Asia and Latin America - all the overpopulated areas. You are so right that those explosive populations are high hurdles to creating better standards of living, especially in countries headed by deeply corrupt leaders.
Of course, all the victim criers, yelling for higher and higher immigration to the West, don't have the intelligence to look ahead and picture the importation of the hell in those overpopulated countries, as open migrations to the West, by sheer numbers alone, lead to massive overpopulation, societal discord, and economic bankruptcy.

Thank you, Dave, for bashing the "they are private companies and can do what they want" arguments. Leaving aside special privileges granted to them, they are NOT private companies. They are PUBLIC companies in the private sector. They have fiduciary duties to all their stakeholders (shareholders, consumers, employees, suppliers and the community at large). I find it astounding that the SEC and respective exchanges have not investigated them and shut them down. In their public disclosure documents have they ever disclosed that a major part of their activities is political activism and subversion. If they were to include that information (they should be bound to full, true and plain disclosure to which all public companies are bound), it would be an outrage that the securities watchdogs would allow it. I notice that the very recently approved new chairman of the SEC is Gary Gensler, a former Clinton associate, so should we hold our breath for expected ethics from these watchdogs.

Loud tweety inaction? Put yourself in Trump's situation, with a phoney investigation and phoney impeachments against you. Every individual you let go will add to the bullying and even more accusations against you. That is what happened to Donald Trump. Imagine yourself as head of an organization with millions of employees. How do you start sifting out the traitors, when you know the pushback to get rid of you because of your actions is enormous. Donald Trump, one of the most courageous individuals of our time to have stood against the massive plots, bullying, lies, slander, libel, epithets, name calling against him.
What do you do? Instead of supporting the one man who is largely responsible for exposing the corruption in the Deep State, you deride him with comments such as "loud tweety inaction." You then, are part of the problem.

Illegal immigration and open borders are an outrage. Period. Even if there are no murders or criminal activity. Open borders sound all very fine and fuzzy for altruists and under-educated college/university students. After all, what could be better than people being able to move freely, with no restrictions, anywhere in the world. Problem! Unless all the countries involved are on a par socially and economically, open borders CAN NEVER WORK. Today there is no parity among the countries involved. The immigration and migration flows will always be to the better--off countries, especially those that force their taxpayers to fund handouts for the flows, stretching resources, crowding schools, lowering education levels, lowering wages, taking jobs, playing havoc with housing, increasing taxes, increasing government sizes, increasing deficits and the national debt, crowding prisons...on and on, to ultimate destruction and implosion. Not to forget, depleting the original countries of human resources to make something of them.
Continuous net annual immigration is so clearly such utter madness, it is impossible to wrap one's mind around how any intelligent person could advocate such a notion.

@DanCantStandYA The loss of professional journalism is one of the worst crises we face today, so dire the consequences. Without professional journalism, there can be no democracy. The media that has become PR arms of the Democrat Party, shamefully exploits uninformed, vulnerable people, with false news, twisted news or omitted news. Without the facts, people vote for the wrong candidates for the wrong reasons and then wonder how on earth things go so wrong. Why do you think big pharma CEOs dislike Trump? One of President Trump's landmark actions was an initiative to dramatically reduce the price of prescription drugs for Americans, by legislating favored nations clauses in pharma sales/distribution agreements. Of course, the mainstream media did not report this. One Democrat who, of course, watches CNN et al, to whom I mentioned this initiative, after he trashed Trump, was so surprised, he simply refused to believe it. I had just watched the signing ceremony for the initiative before coming across this fool.

@jotac87278 Where do you live, @jotac87278? I ask because it is astonishing when one supports policies that work against their families. What do you know about Russia? The USSR? Today's Russia that emerged from the collapsed USSR? Ever tuned into people's videos about Moscow, St. Petersburg, Yekaterinburg, Sochi, Kazan? They are just a few of the beautiful cities in Russia - clean and full of parks, green spaces, arts, dance, beautiful architecture - all nicer than large American cities today. Russia is a federal republic based on freedom and democracy, with a constitution not unlike that of the US constitution, with the three legislative, judicial and executive branches of government. Only difference is that Russia is now more free than the US under the Biden/Harris government. What basis do you have to call a man who supports capitalism that has been responsible for the success of the US (until today as socialism and totalitarian-fascism creeps in under Biden/Harris) a Russia agent, as if there is something sinister about Russians?

This woman just demonstrated that she is a vile bully. I suspect her son is too young to understand that she is the bully, not President Trump. Shame on America for allowing this to happen. Asleep at the switch. There are many Islamist factions. They all have the same caliphate goals. The differences among them is how to reach those goals: with war and terror, or through the democratic process before tearing down the democracy. There is no dispute about these goals. Leaders of the various movements have overtly and publicly expressed them, while Western, politically correct electorates and authorities slept. Were it not for Western democracy, values and standards, this woman would have no voice or discernible face. Yet she hates the culture of the country in which she chooses to live with such venom, she resorts to shameful and vile bullying and hauls her son into the mix. What are her views on these Is. goals? How did such an ignorant woman ever win a seat in America's House of Representatives. All Americans and Westerners must ask themselves that question, without shirking the answers; then stand up and do something about it. Shame on this woman for resorting to bullying, slander, and false premises, instead of presenting her views with facts, reason, intelligence and gratitude for her position. Weep for America for allowing such ignorance and dangerous puerility to creep into its House of Representatives.

@sabineschuessler9234 - What do you have to say about Bill Clinton having a totally inappropriate workplace sexual liaison with a young intern? In view of the power and age differences, that is always categorized as sexual abuse, "consensual" or not. Any CEO who tried that would be escorted out of the building, no questions asked, and fired. Hillary Clinton actually set up war rooms, along with her smear agent, Sidney Blumenthal, to strategize how to demean, and in some cases, have investigated, the victims of Bill Clinton, calling them, "Bimbo Eruptions." That far exceeds the narcissism of Hillary Clinton or a quick affair and moves into outrageous and unacceptable evil. Yet many voted for this corrupt woman, a long-time enabler of serial sexual abuse. Anyone who has ever supported her or supported those who have supported her have forever lost any credibility in commenting against or protesting against sexual abuse.

The influencers who wear an item of clothing just once, then chuck it into a landfill are not privileged by any means. They are fly-by-nighters with their ten minutes of YT/Instagram/TikTok fame.
The privileged (one percenters, to use the popular phrase today) buy expensive clothes that last for years, especially the old rich (versus the new rich).
I came across a large landfill awhile ago. It was a beautiful garden with paths, lawns trees and flower beds. No one can develop that park. It was once a landfill (in the West). I have a different perspective about landfills now.
Having said that, it does make a difference when people are careful about how they throw out their garbage. I believe cities and towns have to make it an easier process, not least updating their plants to accept recyclable bags. Another example. Pretty well all plastic is recyclable, so why get rid of plastic bags? They don't head down to the beach for a picnic, litter it, and throw themselves into the ocean. People do. It is the behavior of people who throw trash around and litter that needs to be monitored, restricted and accountable.

@valeriemckay7064 Indeed, without exception, the people we end up admiring are those who have the courage to call it as it is, and those who get things done.
Obama is eloquent. A major reason he was elected, but his administration turned out to be the most corrupt in US political history. When reading about his daily work, it becomes evident his arrogance and impatience made him difficult to work with.
I can't imagine Trump saying nothing about the disgusting coverage of him at CNN, MSNBC, etc. They were participating in a coup against him. Under those circumstances, one can't expect the target to be careful. He exposed one of the most serious crises of our time: the loss of professional journalism, the consequence of which are extremely dire and lead to broken democracy. In my view individuals who participate in such abhorrent media need to be called and shamed.
Albert Einstein once commented on all the evil in the world but warned that more evil are those who stand back, say nothing and let it happen. That quote was one of the motivators for me to become involved in an honest way, often with risk to my personal life.

No, Meghan does not have a massive constituentcy in America who think she is great. America is just as sick of her appalling behavior.
M's fans are very young, woke, surface, and all about image. At over 40 years old, as M loses her looks, they will quickly lose interest in her and move on to a younger, better looking influencer.
Sadly, M was already an uninformed activist before she orchestrated a date with H. If the Queen had offered him the same deal as she offered Princess Margaret (marry M but lose all titles, benefits and RF work), the outcome would have been entirely different.
Frankly, after their political activism - uninformed and led by Markle - they should never again be able to work for the RF.
I believe their titles should be stripped, including any titles for their kids. If not, then theirs stripped with the kids being non-HRH prince and princess, the consideration for a non-disclosure agreement, effective immediately. No agreement = no titles for the kids.

So d. outrageous when one considers that BLM and ANTIFA operatives, who rioted, attacked (some committed murder -- David Dorn), burned, smashed, and looted, are walking free, while the capitol protesters (legitimately protesting) simply entered the capitol, urged on by FBI provocateurs, and marched through, shouting, "Stop the Steal." Only one person killed: an unarmed veteran shot by a capitol policeman, who is also walking free (versus George Floyd).

n52nimbus I am not going to supply you with the evidence of the coup. It is imperative that you find these things out for yourself. The real news and internet full of the evidence. Now more than a few books by highly reputable writers have documented the evidence: A few hints for your research: Strzok, Page, McCabe, Comey, Clinton, DNC, FBI, DOJ, Rosenstein, Brennan, Fusian GPS, Steele, Ohr, FISA Court, insurance policy, etc. Where did the evidence come from: subpoenaed emails, other subpoenaed material, lawsuits, testimony under oath, leaked emails and other materials, etc. Go and find it. Shame on you if you don't. As Albert Einstein once said: "The world is a dangerous place to live, not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don’t do anything about it." The traitorous activities on the part of highly placed democrats, including an attempted coup, are nothing short of evil.
As I said, your writing is appalling in both content and structure, so no wonder a reader cannot make head nor tail of what it's all about.

Forcing home investing, especially in a country such as Canada, with so few choices, is an extremely bad idea. More to the point would be to pass legislation to inspire, innovate and motivate Canadian business. Doing business in Canada (compared to the US) is like pulling teeth. Balance is necessary. The financialization of real-estate is creating a massive, unaffordable-home crisis in Canada, courtesy of left and right politicians, who can't see, or don't want to see, the destruction of private equity cornering the residential markets and think wasting tax funds on social housing is the answer, as millions of illegal migrants and immigrants pour into the country each year.

@doctormorbius6430 What an incredibly ignorant comment. Before I start, an aside. The loss of professional journalism is one of the most serious crises we face today. Without professional, factual journalism, there can be no functional democracy. Why do you think many CEO's would not support Trump, despite Trump's pro-business platform, elimination of unnecessary bureaucratic regulations, and tax cuts? Because Trump is adamantly against the exploitative outsourcing/insourcing of cheap labor that keeps wages down, destroys jobs for Americans, decimates manufacturing and destroys cities. The CEO's want the status quo of low wages and cheap labor to maximize profits to fill their bulging bank accounts on the backs of low-paid workers. As the mainstream media that has thrown professional journalism out the window to ply their political agendas never reported on this, the mostly uninformed people who watch these corrupt media outlets thought Biden was the man for working people. They still have no idea how wrong they are.
And that brings us to the eerily similar tactics used to elevate the Nazis to power in Germany, the Communists to power in Eastern Europe and the Democrats to power in the U.S. The tactics all come under the heading of "totalitarianism." They include the following, every single one of the examples of which has been used or suggested by 2020/21 Democrats: censorship; silencing opponents; corrupt media working with a corrupt political party (in this case the Democrats); vile goebbelsian propaganda in the place of news (CNN, MSNBC et al); approved news outlets, while those with opposing news are silenced or struck out of business; banishing free speech on campuses; indoctrination of students in schools and universities; removal of books from libraries, schools and universities; rioting; burning books; smashing into private stores and looting; occupying; attempted coups (putsches in your words) - Russia/Trump false accusations fabricated by Hillary Clinton who also funded the false dossier to back her lies, then spread for almost four years as fact by corrupt media; falsely arresting and/or charging opponents (General Flynn); spying on innocent individuals (Carter Page / George Papadopoulos); enemies lists; re-education camps for opponents; cooperation of big business with the totalitarian seditionists; staging insurrection as an excuse to oust opponents and set up draconian measures to "protect" the totalitarian interlopers; fraudulent elections; unelected frontmen. I could go on; however, if you are intelligent, you should get the picture. Every single tactic has been used by the Democrats and can be proven.
After WW2 an aghast world asked how the Germans allowed such corrupt individuals to rise to power. Don't let yourself be one of the people to whom that question will be asked, as this new totalitarian, fascist Biden Regime plunders and destroys America.

Pretty well everything. Do not watch the mainstream news. You will never know what is going on in the world, if you rely on any of the mainstream news -- in pretty well any Western country today. The only way to learn what is going on is via the internet: the few remaining professional journalists, events filmed on the ground as they happen, with no voice overlay spreading false narratives, bottom-up video posted online, listening to congressional hearings, following organizations such as Judicial Watch, reading original leaked emails and documents, following court cases, watching what Biden and others are up to live on video, etc.

This judge is amazing. Calm, fair, attentive, and, not least, well groomed and professional looking, inspiring confidence (something that is missing from many female judges - except Judge Jennifer Dorow in Wisconsin - also well groomed, with the same admirable attributes). Judge Stokes is pretty too, as is Judge Dorrow, but that, of course, is not a qualification for their positions.

That will prove to be pretty difficult. So many of our consumer and other products are made in China now. But, hey, we should all aim not to buy them. Interestingly, liberals who support globalism and think they are supporting policies for ordinary middle-class people have no idea that a 180-degree switch has occurred. Trump Republicans are for ordinary people, while Democrats support big business. CNN watchers and voters have no idea that one reason many CEO's don't support President Trump is because he is adamantly against exploitive outsourcing and insourcing of cheap labor, while CEO's want the status quo to continue to fill their greedy pockets. Outsourcing and insourcing of cheap labor, of course, keeps wages down and destroys jobs. When I point this out to shocked liberals, they respond that Trump used to outsource manufacturing. He did, and he has talked about it. He has pointed out that it is difficult for businesses not to outsource/insource, because they have to compete to survive. President Trump wants this destructive trend to stop and to bring manufacturing back to America.

I don't have a clue who Gavin McInnes is, but shame on him for thinking Hillary Clinton is a wonderful person. That sort of thinking is leading society down a crooked and dark path.
Let me remind him that Hillary Clinton has been up to her ears in scandal for years, starting with her being fired by a democrat when she was working on the Watergate Investigative Committee. He fired her for, in his own words, being "a dishonest, unethical lawyer and a liar." As she was practicing law at the time, that firing should have been the end of any public career for her. What had she done? During discovery when it came time to exchange information with the opposite side, she stole relevant information and hid it in her home, so the other side would not see it.
For years, Hillary Clinton has been an enabler of a serial sexual abuser, even setting up war rooms, apparently with the aid of her smear merchant, Sidney Blumenthal, to strategize how to demean, and in some cases have investigated, her husband's victims, calling them "Bimbo Eruptions," along the way. Accordingly, anyone who supports her, including this guy Gavin McInnes who apparently thinks she's wonderful, has forever lost any credibility in protesting against sexual abuse.
Topping Hillary Clinton's scandals, she set up a private server, over which classified information was transmitted (felony); she lied to congress about her server, emails and Benghazi (felonies); she tampered with and destroyed subpoenaed evidence (felony); she used a supposed charitable foundation as a personal slush fund and pay-for-play facility (felonies); she bought and paid for a phoney "Russian" dossier filled with lies about Donald Trump (felony), which dossier was illegally used to obtain warrants to spy on Donald Trump to find dirt to bring him down, while she started spreading the false narrative that Donald Trump was colluding with Russians to influence the election.
And this man says he has nothing against her that she is a lovely woman. That in a nutshell is why society is going to hell in a handbasket.

@johncover2467 Those who take time to listen to Trump know he is not a liar. He is so direct and straightforward, I believe he's incapable of lying. He may not be eloquent like Obama, but Obama's administration turned out to be the most corrupt in US history.
Just weigh what you have written. You have accused someone whom you know nothing about or how they lead their lives or what principles they go by, of being systemically ignorant. In order for something to be systemic, it has to be deep seated and continuous. So you have no idea if the person is ignorant, let alone if that claimed ignorance on your part is systemic.
Now about lies. Give us one proven lie from Trump. And don't confuse unattained policies or goals as lies. Be careful, because you will be debating someone who follows politics very closely and takes time to find the facts. Hillary Clinton concocted a lie about Trump/Russia collusion to detract from her email scandal. She then paid for a false dossier filled with libel against Trump to back up her lies. That false dossier was used by Democrat politicians and civil servants to defraud the FISA court to illegally obtain warrants to spy on innocent Americans in a hope of sucking out information to get Trump. The media colluded with these seditious players and spread these lies for four years. The same false dossier was used to mount an investigation against Trump, when the investigators and FBI knew it was false and in fact their own fabrication. Now that is sick and systemic. Continued for four years. and the lies from the media and Democrats continue today.
Unfortunately, the political activists in the corrupt media rely on misinformed people to believe and spread their lies. Astounded by the unsubstantiated anti-Trump rhetoric, I have questioned anti-Trumpers. I have discovered, without exception, they know nothing about Trump, knew nothing about his platform, his initiatives or his successes. They simply threw at me that he is a racist, misogynist, and liar -- all totally unsubstantiated epithets thrown out by a disgraceful, goebbelsian media. You should be outraged at being so exploited.

@samallen5213 Archie will only be on the balcony for family royal events. Sorry to disappoint you. Some advice: Never make assumptions about others. They are always wrong. You have no idea how great my life is. Frankly, in my view. Autumn is a far better royal than Meghan, whatever Meghan's position in the pecking order. This third-tier TV actress thought it was a good idea to defame, without reason, intelligence, or substance, President Trump. I don't admire anyone who does that to anyone, let alone this man who has done so much for her country and her ethnic group. One of the required duties of British royal family members in return for the enormous privilege the British allow them is to be apolitical. Even though she appeared in that video before marriage, she has forever marred that apolitical requirement, let alone advertise her true character and lacking in diplomacy and intelligence. It has already caused difficulties in that the video was brought to President Trump's attention before his state visit to Britain. By the way President Trump has made an extremely generous trade offer to Britain to ensure its success after it leaves the EU. In addition, this woman interfered in Irish politics after she expressed her views about abortion in Ireland. No matter what her thoughts about it, as a royal she must publicly remain neutral. Such faux pas, in Britain, where a large portion of the population already wants to live in a republic, could potentially bring the British Royal Family down.

These dancers owe their careers to Russia! Why did they flee? Dancers so focused on dance, they didn't know anything about the Ukrainian genocide against Donbass Russians, or the history, events and players leading up to current hostilities? The genocide was one of the top reasons for Russia's SMO, after Biden, Ukraine and the West refused Putin's relentless calls for diplomacy to end the genocide and US/NATO aggression at Russia's border. Or did they flee because the West ended travel to and from Russia?
After Moscow's first bombs rained down on Ukraine?!!! Russia's goal was to defeat the Ukrainian military at the Donbass border. No Russian "bombs" rained down on any civilian areas. Ukrainian "bombs" did and continue to do so. Since the MI6-instigated, terrorist suicide bombing on the Kerch Bridge, Russia has hit Ukrainian infrastructure and electrical grids beyond the Eastern conflict.
Putin's War? Shortly after Biden entered the WH, he started threatening Russia and calling Putin "evil." Day after day, informing Americans and the World that Putin would invade Ukraine at such and such a time...the time moving each day. As he goaded and threatened, he was backing a huge additional Ukrainian military build-up at the Donbass border, in addition to the Ukrainian Azov Military already shelling Russian civilians since the US-initiated Maidan Coup in 2014. By the start of 2021 over 14,000 Donbass Russian men, women and children had been killed in that Ukrainian genocide. It continues today. Just in the last few days, reports from independent reporters on the frontlines have shown, live on video, civilian schools and hospitals hit by the Ukrainian military targeting civilian areas in the Kherson area.
Liz Truss (now ousted British PM), as foreign secretary, declared war on Russia BEFORE the SMO. She threatened that Britain would target any individual in the Kremlin who had anything to do with the continuation of Russia, a reckless, dangerous declaration of war for never-declared reasons. There are no valid reasons. There are many deeply unethical and corrupt reasons. Russia under Putin had never done anything to the UK, EU, US or West. After her abominable behavior towards Sergey Lavrov in Moscow, Putin recognized Donetsk and Luhansk in the Donbass as independent states.* They asked Russia for help to end the genocide against them. Given the West/Ukraine refusal of diplomacy, Russia formed the Special Military Operation to end the genocide. The West chose to support the Ukrainian genocide, nazism, and deeply corrupt, bankrupt, oligarchy, the very same horrors against which millions perished fighting Germany in WW2.
* The Minsk Agreement granted independent status to Donetsk and Luhansk in the Donbass. Ukraine was a main signatory to the agreement, but corrupt Ukrainian officials, including Zelensky when he became president, refused to honor that agreement. The shelling against Donbass civilians continued.
All these events played out on the internet for all to see and be informed.
Astonishingly these dancers, who owe so much to Russia, now stage a "Reunion" Gala in the United States, the very country that manufactured the war against Russia (for no acceptable reason), using Ukrainian men to die as proxy fodder for its evil intentions, and deliberately imploding the EU in the process. This gala would more aptly be named "Gala of the Runaways." A reunion gala would be a reunion with the Russian dancers who opened their companies and hearts to them and greatly elevated their careers. I doubt they will ever be welcomed in Russia again.

@Finn Hansen You calling me a hypocrite? I have nothing to do with the influx of Chinese students in Western universities. If I were in charge, I would stop it -- create a restricted quota regime for all foreign students. I would revamp entire educations systems: Discipline, basics (sciences, math, economics, finance, business, history, geography, communication (written and verbal), life planning), introduction to political science at junior and senior schools. Universities for bright students, trade colleges for the others, no tenure for professors, no teachers' unions, requirement for professors to have worked in private enterprise for a certain length of time before teaching, no political agendas on the part of teachers and professors. Selective foreign-student program that includes equal exchanges and restrictions for degrees that could be detrimental to national security. In other words, the number of universities would be greatly diminished. Just some thoughts off the cuff without deep thinking.
Are you Chinese or a foreign student from another country? You are right, the powers that be love your money. That's why there are so many foreign students. In some areas of the West, the love of foreign money is resulting in considerable problems (for example real estate development; purchase of fixed income securities to cover domestic debt).

Yes, hopefully they are closing in on the traitorous, illegal activities surrounding the Russia/Trump false narratives, but now they have moved on to Ukraine, which is beginning to crack (every witness in Schiff's kangaroo court, admitted on cross-examination that they had no direct evidence about President Trump's dealings with President Zelensky and that they had simply guessed, assumed or based on hearsay, their opinions about the telephone call and President Trump's motives. What country will be next? Ten little countries sitting on a wall. Russia, Ukraine, China next (Hunter Biden's prize from the CCP was even larger)? Australia next? (Democrats' spying tentacles reached into that country, courtesy of Downer)?

Those of us who have been following this story from the beginning have always been perfectly clear that the Russia conspiracy was concocted from the very beginning by the Obama coup mongers. Which of the FBI, CIA, DOJ, DNI, DOS, Clinton, Mueller, Biden or Obama and their hangers on actually rolled it out is yet to be determined, but they eventually all worked loosely or tightly together. We have known for a long time that the Steele Dossier is an American/Democrat fabrication, with help from Steele (Britain), Halper (Britain), Mifsud (Italy/Cypress (?), and Downer (Australia). No Russian disinformation is involved. It was all about Democrat disinformation about Russia.

@Masxn Don't like the fact that her phone calls lays them bare?! These people work on the taxpayers' dime. All their work phone calls (other than for classified information) should be recorded and archived. Normally, one would not be a hero for opposing corruption. Unfortunately, the mood these days is very, very different. Ethics was tossed out of schools and universities a long time ago; that lack of ethics then pours into workplaces and politics. It takes enormous courage to oppose corruption, particularly when under so much pressure to land on the side of corruption, or lose your position and potential. Meanwhile, just in ordinary life I have personally experienced the courage it takes to expose corruption with the loss of lifetime friends, harassment, derision and anger as a result of my stand against Trudeau and more particularly against the vile corruption and attempted coup within the U.S. Democrat Party. Albert Einstein once said, "The world is a dangerous place to live, not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don’t do anything about it." That is one of the reasons I do something about it.
Stand on the side against evil. As for your objections against her recorded phone call, learn to use perspective. Which is the greater evil, in your view: Recording the call to expose the evil? Or not recording the call for the evil to continue unabated?

Hercules Grytpype I suspect that you may not read my response. Your statement hints that you may not have the wherewithal to read it, learn from it, and do some research to confirm the facts. It is uncanny how many Democrat comments are so ignorant, so uninformed, so uneducated, and not least so childishly dangerous; however, others will read my response, for it is vital in a functioning democracy that electorates be informed.
One of the worst crises in the U.S. is massively failed education. Your comment is a great example of that failed education. Firstly, a well educated person would debate the topic with reason and intelligence, not throw out childish, but extremely dangerous epithets with no relevance or logic whatsoever to the situation. Secondly, to suggest that Trump is in the pay of Putin is absurd. Provide your evidence, or apologize. You will find no evidence, because your statement that Trump is in the pay of President Putin is flatly false. That statement indicates that you are one of the uninformed whom a corrupt media has shamefully exploited to spread its twisted political agenda, including lies about Trump/Russia collusion. Obama's FBI, DOJ, DOS, CIA and executive, including Obama and Biden, attempted a coup against President Trump, using as a foundation, a completely false story about Trump/Russia collusion. This false accusation has been thoroughly exposed as false, with mountains of actual evidence, yet you continue to spread it, either totally unaware that it has been exposed as false, or viciously attempting to spread it, knowing it is false. Either way, not pretty.
We know that Biden and Obama were involved in the plot against President Trump, because they attended a meeting on Jan. 5, 2017, in the White House, during which they and other Democrat attendees plotted how to frame an innocent man, knowing he was innocent -- a side plot to the attempted coup. How do we know about that meeting? From their own notes that were subsequently released. Biden was extraordinarily proactive in the meeting. We don't know how active Obama was other than being in the meeting. At a minimum, as the president at the time, Obama should have put an end to the plot right then and there.
Worse yet, Hillary Clinton fabricated the story about Trump/Russia collusion and spread it in an attempt to detract from her email scandal. How do we know? John Brennan, head of the CIA at the time, briefed Obama about her lies. That briefing has since been made public. Hillary Clinton also paid for a false dossier -- the Steele Dossier -- to back up her lies. The media ran with that false dossier, accusing Trump for almost four years, knowing it was false. How do we know Hillary Clinton paid for the false dossier? Her laundered funds were traced from the DNC, through her law firm, Perkins Coie, to her smear agents, Fusion GPs, who coordinated the dossier with Peter Steele. How do we know the dossier was false? The main source for the dossier, a suspected Russian spy who worked with many Democrats at the Brookings Institute, admitted it was totally false under questioning from the FBI and through court testimony in a European court.

@theciakilledjfk5973 You have hit the nail on the head. I think many liberals vote liberal today without understanding the 180-degree switch that has occurred. In fact, I know some of these people. They vote liberal, thinking Democrats & other Western liberal parties are still the parties for the people; that liberalism today is still classic liberalism. That is not the case. Liberalism today is a neoliberal, globalist, woke, socialist movement, something entirely different. Democrats are the party of the one percenters and big business, including oligarchs. Trump Republicans have become the party of and for the people. That is why he is so popular. As long as liberals are quiet and do not protest the corporate liberal media and its lies, then that media is speaking for them. Democrats are working hand-in-hand with big tech (the most powerful corporate media) to censor and silence conservatives.
Why do you think CEOs would not, and still don't, support President Trump, despite his incredibly pro-business platform? Because he is adamantly against the exploitative outsourcing/insourcing of cheap labor that keeps wages down, destroys jobs, shatters manufacturing and decimates cities. The CEOs want the status quo and globalism to fill their already bulging bank accounts on the backs of cheap labor. This was a central issue under Trump's administration. Democrats fought him at every turn, and Biden has rolled back all the advances Trump made to address this issue that is also an essential part of so much of the mess today.
The role of Democrat liberals today is to enlarge government and create a government-dependent populations with massive welfare and encroachment of government into corporate affairs (Biden's bills smack of that philosophy, his creation of $6 trillion in just 100 days on track to create economic chaos. His platform can be summed up as totalitarian fascism. Trump Republicans, on the other hand, believe in policies that lift those in low-income areas and create self-sufficiency for welfare recipients.

Biden a smart politician?! Oh dear, you don't follow US politics closely enough. Biden has been one of the most no-results politicians throughout his career. He's a compulsive liar. Joe Biden a risky businessman?!! He's never run or owned a business in his life. Actually, just one criminal, racketeering business. He has been involved in foreign influence peddling, selling access to himself, using his drug-addicted son as his bagman.
US a secure partner in this European trouble? Scholz, in charge for less than a year, has sold Germans down the river. The country most at risk from Biden's treachery against Russia is Germany. Scholz is centre left and beholden to extreme-left Greens. He had no guts to stand up against Biden's strong arming him to close off Nord Stream 2, built at the request of Angela Merkel to secure German business & production. Germany's manufacturing will come to a halt if Putin cuts off Russia's supply of LNG to Germany. Germany will collapse, and likely the whole EU. NATO (one of the central issues of this war) will likely collapse too.
Biden's threats against Russia resulted in a new Russia-China Alliance. They refer to it as a "firm" alliance. In one stroke that alliance, courtesy of Biden, ended US geopolitical world dominance. The negative consequences of that to, not only the US, but also to US allies in Europe, are dire. Also loss of USPetro$s and US$ as the world's reserve currency, as Russia, China, Eurasia set up new trade relations and banking systems. The economic consequences of the new Eurasian Block and downward pressure on the US dollar are going to be dire and long-term for the US and its "partners" in Europe. But not so much for Russia and China. Russia will have short-term struggles but it will come out ahead with China. A new world order, with US strength greatly diminished and EU countries struggling to survive without natural resources and the US as a strong partner.
Yves Christian, you need to start paying closer attention.

That's not true. She cared about Britain, British people, and people in general, as evidenced by her not straying ever from her vow to serve, whether her life be long or short. I expect, in view of her position and inside information, she cared a whole lot more than, say, you do. To illustrate my point, I am quite certain you don't give two hoots about me, or the family down the street from you, or the dispossessed. When was the last time you invited a non-privileged down-and-out person into your home for a meal?
Subjects they are not, the Queen/King is a titular head of state. Has no power. Does not rule. Is not even allowed to vote.
I am sorry you have allowed your own political feelings to get in the way of honoring someone who did so much for so many people (check the hundreds of charities that thrived and helped millions of people as a result of a royal patron; check the number of small businesses that survived because of the economic benefits generated around royal events).

@bluestonemetallic7 I'll elaborate. This doesn't involve banking. It involves censorship for political ends. During PM Trudeau's penultimate political campaign, a top Vancouver newspaper published a story about him. Before he became PM, he had taught at an elite school on the west coast, but he disappeared from that school, seemingly overnight. There were hearsay and rumors about why but no factual information. Turns out he had, had an inappropriate sexual affair with a minor student (apparently under 15 years old). He was let go. Subsequently, one assumes when the student reached the age of majority, he had her sign a non-disclosure agreement, apparently in consideration of over a million dollars. Her father signed no non-disclosure agreement. It was he who told the story. He believed voters had the right to know. During Trudeau's last campaign, when I posted these facts, my comments were removed.
Canadians, including the many me-too women in Canada voted for him anyway. Why? Were they completely ignorant of the facts - which would not be surprising in Canada? Or do Canadians not care a hoot about ethics and decency and not understand that a person with that history should never be in any public office?

@ThatGuyScott -- Are you kidding us. Both guns (embedded in the constitution) and abortion (embedded in precedents) are moot points. I can guaranty that the real truth among most of the protestors is that, if questioned, they wouldn't have a clue about how the supreme court works, its cases or its decisions. As for the low-down senators, sadly, only some of them have a real clue, but their motivation was obstruction and delay in the hope of winning in November. That they targeted a fine man for destruction can never be forgiven.
Lastly, it is long past time to make illegal in the U.S., all organizations funded, directly or indirectly, by Soros.

It doesn't matter how Martin Bashir obtained the interview, it in no way excuses the appalling behavior of Princess Diana during that interview. If it further contributed to her fear, paranoia and isolation, then she could only blame herself. She could have just said NO to the interview. If she was lured by deceit, she was still totally in control of what she said. Another example of silencing. Cancel the interview and what Diana said, so people can no longer criticize her trashing of her children's family and blaming Prince Charles for three being in the marriage, when it was she who had a five-year extra-marital affair with Captain Hewitt. In addition, her private secretary at the time, Patrick Jephson, in his book, clearly told how he had warned her against the interview, with no success at preventing her from going through with it.

@pwhales264 So P. Whales, you think the following make the worst presidency in history:
The best economy and jobs market for all ethnic groups in the U.S EVER, directly attributable to Trump's pro-business policies, tax cuts, elimination of useless bureaucratic regulations, the fight against exploitive outsourcing/insourcing of cheap labor that diminishes both wages and jobs.
Huge increase in the manufacturing sector creating thousands of jobs and business opportunities.
The battle against open borders and one-way immigration/migrant flows that ultimately have only one consequence: the economic and societal destruction of the country. One doesn't need more than school math to understand the consequences of continuous, extremely high NET immigration per year into a country. In the U.S. around 450,000 to 500,000 per year, not counting millions of illegals, that drain taxpayers' funds and rob essential programs and spending.
The first president to have the guts to attack China's trade, currency and technology policies head on. Continuous trade deficits are extremely bad for a country. They weaken domestic industries and job opportunities. China has manipulated its currency for years to give itself massive trade benefits against the U.S. The fight against China's theft of U.S. technology. (You must think it is just fine for those who don't do the work to steal from those who do the work.)
The battle against exploitive outsourcing/insourcing of cheap labor for CEO's of large corporations to fill their money pockets on the backs of cheap labor. Exploitive outsourcing/insourcing not only exploits individuals, but also lowers wages and eliminates jobs.
USMCA (US/Mexico/Canada Trade Agreement) held up in Congress by obfuscating Democrats, The new agreement is equally fair. while NAFTA decimated manufacturing and jobs and created huge trade deficits.
Just a few examples. If there were space I could go on and on. What kind of a twisted mind do you have? Shocking how many leftists, after years of dumbed-down schooling can only manage nasty innuendos, without explanation or examples. If you think it is the worst presidency, then be a man and tell us why, cite your sources and provide evidence. Be prepared for arguments from those of us who actually follow and understand the real facts.

The crowds supporting the truckers: Groups, families, couples, singles, old, middle-aged, young, teens, children (dogs), white, black, brown, indigenous, Canadians, immigrants, working class, office class, executive class, retirees, students, employed, unemployed - total spectrum of society -- all peaceful

I remember, after 9/11, I think it was, when there was a whole lot of controversy about initiating intelligence/spying/listening techniques to be used against terrorists and enemies. I vehemently argued that they would never be used against ordinary citizens or for political purposes. How wrong I was. How ethics, decency and honor have been replaced by psychopathic, dishonorable, unethical, behavior. We have to pinpoint how this happened and correct it, starting with the schools and universities and accountability for those who engage in these felonious activities.
On reflection, a democrat fired Hillary Clinton from one of her first stints as a lawyer for, in his words, being a "dishonest, unethical lawyer and a liar." What had she done? During discovery, when it came time to exchange information with the opposing side, she stole pertinent information and hid it in her house, so the other side would not see it. Other than being fired, she was not held accountable. Particularly, as she was practising law at the time, her actions should have precluded here from ever holding any public office. If she had been held to such accountability, we would not have had to go through her pathway of corruption, the most recent being paying for the phoney dossier, a tool to be used in an attempted coup to ensure she won, despite her then recent felonious actions; and an insurance policy to attempt to bring down her opponent if she lost.
WE MUST START DEMANDING ACCOUNTABILITY.

@JRG2733 Outrageous comment. Do you even know the meaning of the word, "profane." Did you not watch his speech at the Prayer Breakfast? Or were your feelings hurt because President Trump rightly called two of the individuals who have viciously and baselessly attacked him over and over again -- Pelosi and Romney. For society to thrive and be decent, sedition must be called. President Trump has not once blamed the American people for "his criminal life" or the impeachment. Provide the evidence or apologize. Firstly, Trump has not led a criminal life; however, those who attempted a coup and impeachment, with no crime, are steeped in criminality. Many will be indicted. Your statement is nothing but a string of epithets, slander and defamation. If you don't like President Trump, then be specific and provide the evidence. One of the most troubling aspects of society today, led by a corrupt press and politicians, is the propensity to name call and lie about those whose policies the corruptors don't like. In such a society there can be no democracy and no justice, just anarchy and chaos
Einstein once said that there is a lot of evil in the world, but more evil are those who do nothing about it. Not calling and exposing the attempted coup and baseless, illegal impeachment against the president is evil. In that regard those who mitigate, support, ignore, twist or deny what the Democrat politicians and seditious civil servants have done are also accountable; however, President Trump has never said that. He is known for always including the American people in his goals of making America great again. If you are not aware of that, then you have been blinded by the deeply destructive hatred perpetuated by Democrats and the press today, and you obviously have never listened to a word he says.

Yes, indeed. What did Hamas get from killing random civilians? The consequences are grave. If you care about civilians, ask why Hamas entered Israel and hunted down and killed random civilians - all filmed. Some were shot outright. Others experienced horrific torture, including rape, the evidence of the latter paraded through the streets. Ask yourself, if your wife, mother, sisters, girlfriend - whoever the women are in your life - had been raped, paraded through the streets with blood soaking the crotch of their pants, or stripped naked, body in twisted contortions, face obliterated, dripping in blood, paraded through the streets on a flatbed truck, captives shouting and shooting off their guns in celebration, would you sit back and ask what they got from this, or would you be volunteering to do everything in your power to oust the terrorists?

@bobbybacland4222 Perhaps, Bobby, you could tell us what on earth Russia has done to the U.S., since the collapse of the USSR?! The US demonized Russia over the Crimea, yet the vast majority of the people in that area (over 90%) voted for it to be managed by Russia. The US went on to demonize Russia over the unrest in Ukraine, yet Obama/Biden/Pyatt/Nuland et al were the culprits who initiated an illegal coup in Ukraine, known as the Maidan Coup, to oust the president who favored Russia for trade relations versus the EU. The US continued to blame Russia falsely for being behind the unrest in Ukraine. Obama extradited Russian diplomats in the US and put sanctions on Russia when it was accused of hacking Hillary Clinton's emails, yet ultimately Clowdstrike admitted it's accusations were false. Over three years the Obama Administration, then corrupt Democrat government officials waged a plot against President Trump, blaming him for having colluded with Russia, a completely fabricated, false accusation, started by Hillary Clinton. The Democrat plotters continued to support corruption in Ukraine and demonize Russia through to another fabricated plot, a phoney impeachment effort against President Trump, all centered around the Obama Administration's corruption in Ukraine.
When a country consistently demonizes another country for no apparent valid reason, then it should not be surprised, if the falsely demonized country turns on it.

@John Hoyle Either you are really stupid, John, and haven't comprehended what has happened over the last four years. Or you are highly misinformed and exploited by the corrupt mainstream media such CNN et al. If that is the case you should be outraged. Or you know exactly what has gone on but insist on continuing to push the lies anyway, which would cast a very nasty dark shadow over you. Hopefully, you will read my response; learn about the facts; and be outraged as any decent person is outraged. My response will take a few posts, as it will be long. If you skip reading it, others will read it. Knowing the facts is essential for the future of America.
Russian Asset:
During her presidential campaign Hillary Clinton floated a fabricated story about Trump/Russia collusion to detract from her email scandal. How do we know? John Brennan, head of the CIA at the time, briefed Obama about it. That briefing has been released to the public. To back up her lies, Hillary Clinton then paid for a false dossier, the Steele dossier, filled with ugly lies about Trump and Russia. How do we know? Her laundered funds were traced from the DNC (which she owned, financed and controlled) through her law firm, Perkins Coie, to her smear agents, Fusion GPS, who orchestrated the false dossier with an ex-British spy and hater of Donald Trump, Christopher Steele. How do we know the dossier was false? Steele's source, a suspected Russian spy, Igor Danchenko, who worked for the left-wing US think tank, the Brookings Institute, told us so when questioned by the FBI and through documents submitted to a European court. The FBI ran with the story, knowing it was false, fed the corrupt media and schemed for the Mueller Investigation to investigate, all knowing the story was false. It has since been proved without reservation that it was false and an attempted coup against President Trump. One culprit, an FBI lawyer at the time, has been charged. He pled guilty to altering information in an email that was submitted to the FISA court, along with the false dossier, to obtain warrants to spy on innocent Americans in an attempt to bring down President Trump. Unfortunately the many other coup plotters still walk free and likely, under Biden, will continue to walk free. Those who plot coups are insurrectionists, not the victims of the insurrectionists.
Insurrectionist
President Trump held a rally to demonstrate against a rigged election. Knowing a huge crowd would attend, he requested that the National Guard be present. Nancy Pelosi refused to grant the request. That information was released directly by President Trump. He urged (and you can find his speech) for his supporters to demonstrate peacefully. In turn, Nancy Pelosi requested that banks of machine guns be actively manned against President Trump's demonstrators. Luckily, cooler heads prevailed, and her request was denied. That request has been corroborated by more than one person.
Meanwhile, a self-declared BLM insurrectionist named John Sullivan posted on SM a video of himself advising what clothes to wear and what equipment and weapons to take to invade the Capitol. He liaised with fellow anti-Trump insurrectionists on Twitter, without any objections from Jack Dorsey. Then he filmed and narrated the invasion from inside the Capitol, urging his supporters to go the full attack; that it was their opportunity. After the invasion, CNN and MSNBC interviewed him as a hero, prior to his arrest. He has now been charged.
Not one of Trump's supporters took weapons into the Capitol. They simply marched through. Only one person was killed, and she was a Trump supporter, shot dead by a Capitol policeman whose name has not been released. Deaths of three other individuals were confirmed to be from natural causes. Meanwhile, marauding through US streets, were the real insurrectionists: The terrorist organization, ANTIFA and a cooperating organization, BLM, a self-declared Marxist organization intent on destroying Western civilization. They rioted, attacked, killed, smashed, burned, occupied and looted and continue to do so today, with very few being called to justice. Those are the insurrectionists, aided and abetted by Democrat state leaders who urged them on, did nothing to stop them, and do not insist on their facing justice now.
During these BLM/ANTIFA riots, BLM thugs cornered David Dorn, an African American patriot, family man and former police captain. He was helping a friend to secure his shop amidst the riots. The BLM thugs shot David Dorn and posted their filthy deed on SM for all to see. David Dorn lay spread eagled on the pavement, blood gushing from his head, his phone still lit up in his outstretched hand. As he tried to bring the phone close to call for help death took him. Those who saw that video wept. The BLM thugs watched in a semi circle around him, without a move to help him. As they escaped the scene, CCTV cameras caught them. As a result two were arrested, but typical of the Democrat leaders, we have not heard any updates on those arrests. While this was happening, Nancy Pelosi and her cohorts donned in kente cloth, scarves with Ghanaian colors and prints, knelt in the Capitol Rotunda in honor of BLM. President Trump, as soon as he heard about it, phoned David Dorn's family to convey his deep sorrow and condolences. As an aside, Ghanaian people and journalists were outraged at Nancy Pelosi for using their designs and colors in honor of such evil. They took to Twitter to voice their outrage.

Taxpayers in Russia, Ukraine and China, along with other countries in Eastern Europe, undoubtedly contributed to those clothes. Biden spent years siphoning foreign tax money in illegal, foreign influence peddling activities. And let's not forget American taxpayers. They paid Joe Biden for 36 years in the Senate, 8 years as VP, with no results, and are still paying him to squat in the White House. His wife, a college teacher, also likely earned her salary at taxpayers' expense. That cannot be said of Melania Trump, not even when President Trump was in the White House. He took no presidential salary.

For a while I read the Daily Mail On Line fairly consistently (don't anymore). During that time, I was shocked and horrified at, not only the vile, vicious, irrational and unsolicited bullying, not deleted, against the Duchess of Cambridge in the comment sections, but also the same sort of negatively evocative headlines and coverage of the Royal Family, as evident in the headline being discussed here. So appalled, in fact that I took the time to write to the editors about it. How naive I was! So, the Daily Mail, pro-royalty? I am not so sure about that. The Daily Mail, a mixed rag of actually interesting stories not covered elsewhere, mixture of fake and fact, pinup wannabes in little clothing being given their one-minute of fame, appalling writing and grammar, gritty crime, and loaded with opinion dressed up as news. One thing that paper does well is sticking to stories to the very end. After intervals of no coverage, back the story comes, with pictures and headlines flashing, as the next episode plays out.. For example those Peru mules did not go away for years until the very end of their sorry drug saga - a signal that the DM will stick to Epstein, Maxwell and Andrew relentlessly as the manufactured, real and extended damage plays out to the very end.

@たなかかげやま Don't thinks so. I think Obama did not like or respect Biden. Used him for votes and a misguided notion to regain his legacy. Obama has been eerily quiet during this disaster, even though at other times during the Biden Regime he has publicly supported Biden. Obama, such a coward. If he had come out and condemned the Democrat Party and seditious FBI, CIA, DOS, et al for the shameful, treasonous plot against Trump, demanded that those who are culpable be charged, and that the party be cleaned up before moving on, he would have regained a large measure of respect. But wait a minute, he was in on the plot: January 5, 2021, meeting during which he, Biden and various others plotted how to frame an innocent man, General Flynn, knowing he was innocent. How do we know about that meeting. From their own notes. Anyone capable of such treachery as took place in that meeting should never be in a position of leadership.

@johnsmith1474 Firstly, how old are you John? Remember Hillary Clinton's disastrous healthcare plan -- panned by all stakeholders! Secondly, John, what kind of parents did you have? What kind of schools did you go to? Why do I ask? Because those who are decently brought up don't resort to foul language also cloaked in extremely inappropriate innuendo.
Now for intelligent, adult debate. Invoking any number of others' beliefs in big socialist programs, whether democratic or republican, in no way alters Hillary Clinton's belief in extremely large socialist programs. All this banter against the background of the U.S. having the largest socialist medical program in the world.
Total medicare spending in 2018 - 15% of total federal spending - $731 billion. Trust fund projected to be depleted in 2026.
Total medicaid, ACA and CHIP spending in 2018 - 11% of total federal spending - $629 billion.
I reiterate, Hillary Clinton is about massive government spending. She has been all her life. Her mentor, Saul Alinsky, was a communist. She has written about her plans extensively for years. It Takes a Village -- a very telling title.
Her plans for universal healthcare against a backdrop of serious financial problems in all government funded healthcare, with every single country that has "universal healthcare," except Canada and Cuba, having a very vibrant two-tier system.
One would be very foolish to vote for or support Hillary Clinton in view of her big-government solutions, but to support her corruption and enabling of a serial sexual predator make support of her toxic and noxious.

@Zones33 Trump inept at handling CV?!!! Firstly, let's set the accurate scene: The state authorities, governors, mayors, not the federal authorities or Trump, are responsible for the handling of the CV in their states -- i.e. in America. From a federal perspective, Trump was the first to stop travel to and from China. Through his negotiating skills and business acumen, he sorted out shortages of needed medical supplies and equipment (the manufacture of which had been foolishly sent to China by Democrat administrations), so that the US actually become a net supplier. Trump's Operation Warp Speed has resulted in Vaccines coming to market quicker than anyone could have imagined. In your not understanding the different jurisdictions in the U.S., I would say you are not delusional, just plain ignorant. On that note let's just hope that you do not vote, because ignorant voters result in dysfunctional democracy.

In Toronto hundreds of thousands went out to support the Truckers' Convoy. Many trucks. Not one tractor. Oh yes. There were some horses, but the riders were police. There would have been more, but the elected officials in charge, courtesy of the police blocked the roads. The crowds? Groups, families, singles, old, middle-aged, young, teens, children, even a few babies, dogs, white, black, brown, Indigenous Canadians, Canadians, immigrants, well dressed, less well dressed, all classes.

There's more: A new Russia-China Alliance has been formed, as a result of Biden's threats towards Putin/Russia. They refer to it as a "firm" alliance. In one stroke, courtesy of Biden, the US has lost its geopolitical world dominance. Energy markets among Russia, China and Eurasia will not be conducted in US Petrodollars. That will put enormous pressure on the dollar. The sanctions, financial and banking treachery against Russia will threaten, and likely end the $US as the world's reserve currency. The economic consequences will be dire. The EU could fall apart. Americans (all the Americans vilifying Russia) will not understand what has hit them. The rest of the world, too, will suffer enormous, negative consequences. "Thanks Joe Biden and all the fools who prop up you and your regime." "Thanks" outdated regime-change, war-mongering Republican neocons, itching for war to bag $millions for yourselves. (Anyone wonder what Liz Cheney is all about?) One good outcome might be that NATO will collapse as the relic it should have become after the fall of the USSR.

MM will never redeem herself, or her brand, on a public platform. SHE is the brand, and it is broken. No matter what changes she makes to business missions, names, taglines, etc., it will not put her brand together. It is irretrievably broken. The risk of being the face of one's business. She broke it herself. I would strongly advise her to find a real 9-to-5, behind-the-scenes job, with no publicity, no titles, no references to royalty. Be true to their PRIVACY brand. If that means downsizing, then that is what they will have to do.

Don't get too excited by IG report. Remember, as an internal report, it has no teeth. Can merely recommend criminal investigation. If these coup mongers aren't prosecuted, there will be hell to pay in the U.S. At a minimum, these elected traitors (Schiff, Pelosi, Nadler, AOC, Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Maxine Waters, et al must be thrown out on their ears.

NATO was formed as a defensive force against the USSR. The USSR collapsed in 1991, so the mandate of NATO is null and void. It has become an illegal, aggressive, expansive, imperialistic force. How old are you Barbara? Remember the fear on the brink of nuclear war in 1962 during the Cuban Missile Crisis? The US, under John Kennedy, would not tolerate (at the risk of nuclear war) a USSR military site in Cuba, so close to the US border. Why then, should Russia tolerate a NATO base and documented/filmed US/NATO aggression at its border?
Perhaps you can tell us what right the US has to be in Ukraine? The US invaded Ukraine and initiated the bloody Maidan Coup in 2014 to oust a duly elected Ukrainian president, because he favored friendly trade relations with Russia. He chose Russia, rather than the EU, after he read the EU-sided restrictive fine print in the EU trade agreements. US civil servant, Victoria Nuland, and US ambassador, Geoffrey Pyatt, were recorded plotting whom they were going to put into important Ukrainian government positions. The recording was leaked. It is still on the internet for you to listen. Please tell us why such US interference in Ukraine is acceptable. The real reason is to build a US/NATO base to strike at Russia. Russia, under Putin, had never - not once - threatened to invade or invaded any Western country that is now attacking it.
The Russian-Ukrainians are most definitely not free to speak Russian in Ukraine. Another contributor to Russia's SMO was the Ukrainian government's official policy of apartheid against Russian-Ukrainians, including restrictions from speaking Russian.

@admontblanc I didn't say anything about an ethnostate; however, I do not believe in selling your country out to a completely different culture and in the processing becoming subservient to the new culture. If a person wants to immigrate to a country, then in my view, that person must integrate with his/her chosen country and abide by its standards, norms, and laws. Keep their religion by all means, but make sure that religion confirms to modern standards and the standards of the new country. For example, no abuse of women. No inappropriate clothing for women. On the reverse side, if I decided my country wasn't good enough, so I immigrated to, say, Saudi Arabia, then I would be expected to abide by that country's standards, whether I liked them or not. I chose to go there, knowing the set up in the country. A country should have every right to maintain its own identity. Meanwhile, woke is dangerous and evil in any country.

For a stranger? Yes. But for an imposter, usurper, thief and White House squatter, who went out of his way to denigrate Trump who was cautious going down the slippery West Point ramp? No. Ironically, Biden used his "prowess" to denigrate Trump, pointing out that he, Biden, leapt up ramps. Sweet Karma. And let's not forget Biden sat in a meeting at the White House on January 5, 2017, and proactively plotted how to frame an innocent man, knowing he was innocent. And there is more. He used his sick, drug addicted son as his bagman in a vile, illegal foreign influence peddling scheme, enriching himself and his family at the expense of Americans. And let's not forget how he hounded the truck driver of the truck into which his former wife drove, while he was having an affair with Jill. For years he told the world the truck driver had been drinking. He had not, and the accident was not his fault. Finally, he apologized to the truck driver's family for spreading the lie and said he would stop. He did stop, but he refused to set the record straight for the public.

These Ukrainian soldiers are not defending their home. In 2014, Mariupol voted to join Russia. Instead of accepting that right of self-determination, the Ukrainian Azov Militia and Ukrainian army invaded Mariupol, attacking civilians. The civilians of Mariupol have been living in hell surrounded by Azov Militia ever since. The Azov Militia take up positions in civilian areas and use them as human shields, shooting them if they attempt to leave. Mariupol has been decimated by the Azov Militia. Finally Russian and Russian allied forces have emptied the Azov from Mariupol, except the Azov Steel Factory, where the Russians have given them two opportunities to surrender. Foolishly, they have not taken that opportunity to save their lives. Over 1000 Ukrainian Marines were more sensible and surrendered.
If you actually cared for the Ukrainian people, you would be posting against the deeply corrupt leaders and US interlopers who have bled them dry, instead of bolstering the treachery and corruption of the leaders, including Zelensky, by supporting them.
Now, just so you can be clear about what you are supporting, here's an article about the state of Ukraine:

This has already happened. We are witnessing the most shameful frenzy of hatred right now whipped up by packs of lies from both Democrat and Republican neocons, totally corrupt media, and an unbelievably uninformed public. It is certainly one of the most shameful situations I have ever witnessed, along with the actual treasonous plot against president Trump. When a government survives on lies, then it has reached the depravity of the former USSR totalitarian Marxist regime, and democracy has ceased. Ironically the new Russia that emerged from the USSR is one of the most reliable places for news. It is brutally honest, even when the facts expose their mistakes. The invasion of Ukraine, after the US refused diplomacy, is not a mistake. It is to save further bloodshed of the Donbass Russians - over 14,000 killed to date and to end US/NATO aggression towards Russia, despite Ukraine not even being a NATO country. This war is Biden's war against Russia, using Ukraine as a proxy, while he safely scoffs ice cream in Delaware. Unbelievable depravity.

@carolinerobinson8816 You are right. Slavery ended in Jamaica in 1834. Nobody alive today had anything to do with it. Also, as you say, better to fight modern-day slavery. The largest slave markets are in Libya, following Hillary Clinton's interference in that country, causing civil war, the collapse of the country, a huge slave trade, and the worst crisis in Europe since WW2. In addition to Libya's slave trade, we have the slave trade in SE Asia where parents sell their young pre-teen children into the sex trade. Not to forget the huge slave trade between Eastern Europe and the West, many young girls ending up as prostitutes in Amsterdam, the city people laud as having a healthy attitude towards its famous Red Light District. We live in (excuse my language) a f****d up world.

You should do your research on Bill Browder before posting your unverified narratives. Firstly, although Browder continues to claim it, Magnitsky was NOT a lawyer. Secondly, without doubt Magnitsky perished in prison as a result of awful conditions, but it has never been proven that anyone killed him. Thirdly, Bill Browder and his clients, it turns out, were involved in a huge fraud relating to the acquisition of Gazprom shares at discounted rates only available to Russians; tax evasion through taking advantage of tax incentive rules in an area of Russia but not following the rules for the incentive; and hiding activities in his various companies by creating layers of shell companies. I believe Bill Browder should not only not be allowed into the U.S., but that he should also be investigated, with a view to dismantling the Magnitsky Act. Documents, testimonies, and depositions backing up the case against him are now online for you to research.

@barbaracrickley6191 - I am a huge Trump supporter. The world is in very serious trouble, if he is not re-elected in 2020; however, on Russia, I believe he has given out a mixed message. On the one hand, repeatedly stating that it is a good idea to get along with Russia; on the other hand, hanging on to the Deep State tough line with sanctions, etc., as well as stealing Putin's thunder over Syria. Putin was the first to go into Syria and make a significant and essential difference pushing back the terrorists. At the time, the large air-strike international coalition against ISIS, led by the U.S., only engaged in precision bombing against this marked terrorist or that weapons storage building, making no difference to the overall terrorist successes. Trump did increase the U.S. activity against ISIS, but it is Putin who deserves the lion's share of praise. Also, interesting to note that the Deep State bamboozled the fake media, world leaders and Trump, shopping around pictures of children and ducks who had died by coming into contact with the poison used to kill a former Russian agent in the UK. As a result, Trump expelled Russian diplomats from the U.S. It has now come to light that those pictures where completely phoney. Generic pictures showing what would happen if children were exposed to remnants of the poison. No other person lost his/her life as a result of the poison used -- also never proved with evidence that the Russians did the deadly deed.

President Trump's win was definitely not an upset in the view of the millions who actually followed him and familiarized themselves with his platform and who had been to, or watched, his highly successful rallies, where he explicitly laid out his principles, plans and reasons -- pure common sense -- while the fake mainstream liberal news ignored his rallies (other than to falsely claim they were poorly attended), lied about him, threw epithets his way, slandered and defamed him and his followers, all backed up by their "air-tight polls," showing a decisive and massive win for Hillary Clinton. So much for polls, designed and created to fit certain agendas.
One of Hillary Clinton's last rallies was an Hispanic rally. She came out on a platform, waving and smiling, as she heard the crowd roar. Not until she had stood still for a moment or two did she realize they weren't cheering her; they were booing her, shouting that she was not welcome there. She turned and fled in fear. Not reported by the liberal mainstream media, of course.
On the last night of the campaign, Hillary Clinton organized a big rally, bolstered by popular entertainers. Despite the entertainers, many seats were empty, and the venue closed down pretty early, as everyone headed home. Not accurately reflected in the mainstream media.
On the last night of the campaign, at 2:00 a.m. live PST, over 100,000 attended Donald Trump's last rally (inside and outside the venue). On just one YT channel (the one I was watching) at that time in the morning, there were over 75,000 people watching! Not reported by the liberal mainstream media.
We knew something amazing was going to happen the next day. No surprise or upset for those of us who were informed through the real, alternative media, and by tuning into Donald Trump's massively attended rallies, where he spoke directly to the people. No hearsay or opinions dressed up as news -- just information directly from the source.

Ouch. You have got the wrong end of the stick. Not sure that I can blame you, because the facts were never reported by the MSM. So here's what actually happened:
Hillary Clinton, whose policy was full-on regime-change, fell for a ruse and supported and funded ISIS. At a book signing when asked why, she said they were "moderate rebels." Clinton's "moderate rebels" were nothing less than home-grown and insurgent Islamist extremists. Their ruse was to make out that they were ordinary citizens demonstrating against the conditions in Assad's prisons, where he had Islamic extremists safely locked up. Their intent was actually to round up support for their evil intentions. Their demonstration fell right into the hands of Hillary Clinton's/Obama's/Biden/s dangerous, regime-change policies. At a maximum, if the West thought it was their business and Assad's prisons needed to be overhauled, you don't start a civil war, you persuade through negotiation. (Interestingly, that they have never said anything about China's awful prisons.)
The result of Hillary Clinton's assistance was chaos, unrest, civil war, ISIS in Syria, resulting in death and destruction for millions, spilling into Libya (again Hillary Clinton totally responsible for the collapse, death and destruction in that country). Decent, honorable policy would have been to support Assad against a vile and wicked extremist insurgency and civil war, Assad's Syria was one of the most liberal, open countries in the Middle East, accepting all religions, Damascus, a place on many travel lists. ISIS made huge gains against Syria and Assad, using the most vicious and depraved tactics against humanity ever seen.
America headed a multi-national air coalition against ISIS and strangely against ISIS's victim, Assad. Their strategy was precision bombing, which as Paul Joseph Watson mentioned, caused untold local, precise damage, but had no effect on the war as a whole. It later came out that the organization checking into the gassing in Syria had lied, but, of course, that was never reported on the MSM. It's experts on the ground all said their had been no gassing. It was a set up by ISIS, but the desk-jockey globalists in the organization covered that up. (Sorry, without looking it up, I can't remember the name of that organization, but you can check it out).
When Trump won the presidency, the US did more damage to ISIS, but it is PUTIN who made the difference. It was PUTIN and Russian larger bombing that defeated ISIS. (Again, ignored by the MSM.) I am a Trump fan, but in that one attack against Assad, using as a reason, gassing by Assad that in reality had never happened, I parted company with him.
In closing, the Obama Administration caused so much hell in the Middle East that spilled into the worst crisis in Europe since WW2, the migrant crisis. On that note, in an on-the-ground documentary (of course not mentioned or aired by the MSM), the migrants themselves exposed what was happening. Ever wonder why, all at the same time, thousands of migrants from different countries, independently decide to try their luck in Europe (or America)? That's not how it worked. They are not refugees from war. They are economic refugees. They did not independently decide to head for Europe (or America). Representatives from NGO's (liberal, globalist, Soros NGO's) flooded their countries and solicited them to leave at great cost to them and with many false promises, some being abandoned halfway through the journey; some landing in various countries in Europe, with little hope of full and successful lives. Not to forget, some "war refugees," who, as Paul Joseph Watson. mentioned, were actually Islamic extremists, seizing the opportunity afforded by totally inept globalist politicians, to enter Europe and ply their evil deeds.

If a person pleads guilty, no proof is needed; however, that person could, depending on the negotiations, end up with a much less onerous sentence. Believe it or not, that is why sometimes even innocent people plead guilty. All good criminal lawyers will advise people to NEVER talk to the police (hence to the prosecutors), even if they know they are innocent. When prosecutors wrongly accuse someone who is subsequently wrongly found guilty and imprisoned, I believe those prosecutors should be found personally responsible and have to suffer consequences. Such legislation would help ensure that police and prosecutors have full, concrete proof of guilt and do not rush to judgement and trial.
As far as the current topic is concerned, it is astounding that Hillary Clinton has not been charged. She initiated the lie about Trump/Russia and funded the false dossier through the DNC. The DNC was bankrupt before her last failed presidential campaign. The Clintons funded the DNC. They were the DNC with full power over it; however, you can bet your bottom dollar that, if this corrupt woman is ever indicted, her excuse will be that DNC personnel laundered the funds through Perkins Coie to Fusion GPS and that she knew nothing about it. I am not sure how she can possibly wiggle her way out of initiating the Trump/Russia lie. John Brennan, CIA head at the time, briefed Obama about it.

Why should Russia pull back? The people in its captured territories have voted overwhelmingly to join Russia. Why? They were victims of Ukrainian genocide and ethnic discrimination/cleansing - stripped of their human rights. Those territories will never be returned to Ukraine. Please, please get this appalling, bigoted, hate-mongering woman off the public air waves. She no longer has authority to speak about this war. She and the West are supporting and encouraging genocide, nazism, ethnic cleansing and discrimination, and US/NATO/West offensive, hegemonic aggression against Russia, pretending it is to protect Ukraine, because the real reason - a manufactured attack Russia to tear it apart, plunder its resources and colonize Eurasia, would not sit well with most people, including Democrats and liberals.

Cheryl Brandon When people think it is somehow clever to demean President Trump by bullying him. Name calling is nothing less than bullying -- appalling, puerile behavior for adults -- it immediately reveals a ton of negative information about the name callers, not President Trump. Worse, when the name calling is without evidence, example or reputable source.
President Trump before CVQ delivered the best ever employment results for African Americans and all ethnic groups -- the best for women in 75 years. He is also relentless about ending exploitive outsourcing and insourcing of cheap labor that keeps down and lowers wages, destroys jobs for Americans and decimates manufacturing. (Reason why some greedy CEO's won't support him - they want the low-wage status quo to fill their pockets.) His latest executive order, to lower the cost of drugs. Low-income areas have greatly benefited from his program of assistance for entrepreneurs and businesses in those areas. His First Step program is giving second chances to reformed prisoners (mostly black). His push for school choice that would dramatically benefit children in under privileged areas is being blocked by Democrats. Yet you call him a "chump."
That indicates that you prefer the Democrat Party whose elected officials have allowed cities such as Chicago to fall into death zones of depravity; that do not have the guts to refuse to defund police; that sit back without action as the terrorist organization ANTIVA and Marxist organization BLM riot, destroy, burn, attack, kill and loot; that prefer to hand out subsistence welfare checks, instead of lifting up the economically disadvantaged to live better lives; that are not interested in law and order and support the seditious attempted coup against President Trump and framing of an innocent man, General Flynn.
Be very sure you are totally familiar with the platforms of politicians you support and what the ultimate consequences will be for you. Socialism, with very little law and order, injustice, two-tiered justice, and government handouts without the money to handout will end very badly, as we have witnessed from all countries that fell into those traps. A vote for Biden is a vote for a political party that has done absolutely nothing to improve black lives, and was, in fact, the party of slavery, Jim Crow laws in the South and the KKK.

She spins outright lies on the fly, but these "journalists" just let them stand no matter how outlandish.. As we have witnessed lately, there are millions who believe exactly what they hear from corrupt media and politicians. Many don't have the education in economics or finance, or the motivation to dig up the truth themselves. The incredible, irrational viciousness towards Putin, Russia and Russians is coming from politicians and media, who should know better, as well millions of ordinary people. The treachery and anti-Russian hatred (and uninformed love for Ukraine's Azov Militia's slaughter of over 14,000 Donbas Russians, corrupt Ukrainian oligarchs, and totally unreasonable US NATO demands) is, frankly chilling coming from the same politically-correct crowd that for two decades has been preaching dire consequences and cancellation for any perceived hate speech. We easily talk about unwanted corruption, but people are becoming depraved hawkers of unsubstantiated, vitriolic hatred.

A self-help guru - think it was Jack Canfield - pointed out that when we experience negative consequences, we need to ask ourselves what role we played in the outcome. When I mention this to people, they initially balk as others' actions created the outcome. Focusing on one's own role is not necessarily negative. It removes blame. It could be as simple as, say, going to a party where there was a known risk of trouble. Or taking a job that one knows is not a fit. Just putting ourselves in certain situations. Acknowledging our own roles, however, benign or negative, is cathartic, removes blame, and allows us to move on. Blame never resolves situations and takes up toxic space and time in our brains. Space and time that would be so much better used for other positive goals and activities.
MM's role (that she would admit) could be her orchestrating a date with Harry (truth exposed in Tom Bower's book); or misunderstanding royalty as celebrity; or refusing to follow the rules of the Firm (which for the rest of us in our jobs would result in being fired, without a choice to voluntarily leave). Their mutual role in the universal dislike of them, their choice to trash their families over and over again in public for victimhood and money.

@Laurie P - Sweet payback as Procter & Gamble announced it Q $8 billion Gillette write down and $5.24 billion net loss as a result. This, of course, triggered by, its outrageous, misguided ad, demeaning men. I am very happy with my Egard watch that I purchased during that company's watch promotion that ran with its ad praising men, in direct response to Gillette's irresponsible ad. That's how we have to fight the slide of ethics and decency on the left -- by draining their pocket books, bank accounts and phantom reputations. Very interesting, are the results of a Google search for P&G's Q results. All the results on the first search page praise, or put a positive spin on, P&G's financial results. Google another evil doer, the executives of which need to have their real actions exposed and their pocket books drained. We cannot fight the company Google. Too large. But surely we can get the executives removed.

I believe that women must report rape promptly (with the exception of children for obvious reasons). I have never heard of this woman before, but she most certainly sounds credible; however, there have been many instances of women wrongly accusing men of sexual deviation or rape when the men are in fact innocent, especially when a woman wants to ruin a man's career for some reason, usually politics. I believe there should be a statute of limitations for reporting rape or sexual misconduct. A very short statute of limitations. One month. No report, then no-go later. That is plenty of time for women who have been so vilely abused. It would eliminate wrongful accusations and the sordid tactic of women coming out of the woodwork decades later, with no concrete evidence, attempting to stop political careers with these accusations. I also believe that if a woman goes back for more, then her case goes down the ladder in credibility.
This woman, Charlotte Lewis, seems to have gone through sheer hell. I have always been aghast at the blind eye of Hollywood and its hypocritical starlets/actresses towards Roman Polanski and Harvey Weinstein. Video of Meryl Streep's loud standing ovation for Roman Polanski when he was publicly under indictment. Bill Cosby's main accuser, an adult woman, who went back for more. Oprah Winfrey, who was the one woman in a position to publicly out Harvey Weinstein, cosying up to him for years (with photographic evidence). She did not need him. She had the independence, money, connections and public reach to bring his situation to the front. Yet she did nothing, then become a pro-active Me-Too member.

@artman7780 Oh boy, you've been watching too much fake news. "Illegal dealings Trump had with the countless government lobbies." Firstly, the statement is absolute rubbish. What on earth are you talking about. Secondly, if you have evidence of President Trump having illegal meetings, then present it. If you do not (and you could not possibly have information that all the investigations, including Mueller's, failed to find), then grow up, prepare to be a real man to your children and research what happened: the attempted coup against President Trump, the most shameful and worst political scandal in the history of US politics. Your children (now or in the future) deserve a parent who detests the corruption that has gone on in the Democrat Party, with mounds and mounds of evidence.

@hershelbabymomma231 How old are you Willy? Not old enough to keep up with what goes on? Do you know what "sedition" means? People who engage in it go to prison. Hard to grasp that you obviously have no idea what happened. The following is proven fact. Hillary Clinton was at the centre of a seditious plot to topple Trump. So far one Democrat, FBI lawyer, Clinesmith, has pled guilty to altering information to defraud the FISA Court in furtherance of the plot. Igor Danchenko, the main source for the Clinton-funded dossier used in the plot, who previously admitted under FBI questioning, that the dossier was false, has been indicted. Sussman, a Clinton lawyer has also been indicted. He spread false stories about Trump to the FBI, pretending he was not working for a client but just a concerned citizen. The Clinton owned DNC paid him for his dirty work.
You see Willy, Trump was the victim of a treasonous, Clinton initiated plot. He did nothing wrong. Unfortunately corruption has been rampart in the Deep State so many others who are culpable, including Hillary Clinton, still walk free, but the Durham Investigation is closing in on them. Some advice: Grow up. Become familiar with events and facts, because your incredibly stupid comment makes you look extremely uninformed and dumb. Most importantly you are on the wrong side of ethics, decency and functioning political platforms. That will prove to haunt you as you move forward in life.

What is too far right in your view? Objecting to preferential treatment and promotion by groups versus by success, accomplishments and innovation, which is the intent of this podcast? Slightly right of centre conservatives today are demeaned in the media and press as "far right." The Democrat Party long ago shed its classical liberalism, which had gradually moved more and more left, but could still could be debated. Ironically, the Democrat Party has become a mixed Marxist Totalitarian Fascist Party - for left and far right - a party that doesn't tolerate debate - has actively colluded to censor and skew information, but in reality, advocates evil systems that must not be debated, only stopped, because we have learned about, and witnessed, their destruction throughout history. Not one Marxist or Totalitarian-Fascist government has ever been successful. They have only crashed or been brought down with protests and violence.

The guys on both sides of this equation (Hedge Fund short sellers and Reddit buyers) are, in my view, despicable. When the securities markets become an arena for win/lose gotcha games of unethical players, then we have yet another breakdown in society, in addition to censorship, silencing opponents, attacking opponents, and stealing elections. The markets impact every single one of us, directly or indirectly, so when they turn into boxing matches between unethical professionals and ignorant amateurs, we will all be negatively impacted.
Short selling has been abused, no doubt, but I believe there is a place for it. It can keep unethical, corrupt, corporate executives in check. I don't know the details behind the short positions in this case -- whether there is evidence of "anti-pumping" (my word) or not. We don't have a list of the underlying investors in these hedge funds -- large individual investors, but also ordinary people invested in funds that have in turn invested in the hedge funds. The audience (ordinary people) watching this game is hurt as the integrity of fair and efficient markets collapses, and the players in this game are hurt in a game the umpire calls as lose/lose.

Interestingly, Diana, too, trashed her family. Maybe it runs in the family. I have always been a supporter of a constitutional monarchy. In general, the RF is to be greatly admired for its dedication, good works, sacrifices for the country and commonwealth, albet in return for enormous benefits, doing the country proud as a state host to foreign leaders, generating substantial economic activity, and a constancy in troubled political times (one reason they must not engage in politics); however, I am beginning to change my views.
The turn in my road started with two events: Meghan Markle publicly trashing and slandering President Trump, without reason, intelligence or evidence. He of course was the leader of Britain's greatest ally. Watching a woman curtsey to Meghan Markle. It hit me that something was very wrong about that.
Now with Harry and his wife making a living trashing the RF, his close family, and the British people, it's reaching republic time. Unfortunately, that's probably just what they want.

@shadowfuture1378 If you watch the mainstream news, I expect you probably think people wanted Biden as president. If you followed the actual factual news on alternative media outlets, you would have picked up on a very significant and obvious trend. The majority of people did not want Joe Biden or Kamala Harris or the Democrat Party. Perhaps, you simply weren't paying attention to the trend. It was painfully obvious in the hundreds of thousands attending Trump's rallies and events of support, with less than a hundred attending Biden's very few rallies. Furthermore, if you had followed the factual news, you would have known about the proof from Hunter Biden's laptop that Joe Biden shared in the spoils from the Biden Family illegal foreign influence peddling, in addition to his participation in the shameful FBI plots against Trump. (He was proactive in a meeting at the White House, attended by Obama et al, at which they plotted how to frame an innocent man (General Flynn), knowing he was innocent. By the time of the election, even decent Democrats were disgusted by the Democrat/Biden corruption. Intelligent people do not return pervadors of corruption and sedition to power. Of course, Twitter and Facebook and the corrupt mainstream media censored information about Biden's profiting from illegal influence peddling; however, people in the know, already knew that he had profited at the expense of Americans.
On the night of the election, Trump was winning overwhelmingly, then suddenly a few states simultaneously stopped their counts (unheard of before), and lo and behold, those states suddenly had Biden winning by wide margins. Some of the tracing demonstrated large blocks of Trump votes simply being exchanged for small blocks of Biden votes. So shameful, it is hard to believe we are experiencing such corruption in America in our lifetimes, now leading to a massive push towards totalitarian socialism and fascism in the US (dripping into other countries) that we never thought could possibly happen in advanced societies that time and time again, even in our lifetime, have watched totalitarian socialist societies and governments fail spectacularly.

@turboteddy4912 You didn't bother to read those bills. I don't even have to ask, because your comment tells us that you did not. Firstly, Biden's tax increase is on everyone, except those under Biden who will be added the growing welfare rolls. If you had bothered to read them and be informed, you would know that his total of approximately $6 trillion in spending has nothing to do with the title of those bills. Both the CoVid Relief and Infrastructure bills set aside less than 10% for CoVid Relief and Infrastructure. Biden's relief bills are pork barrel masterpieces. Where were you when Trump read out the $millions and $millions that were going to foreign and national special interest groups that have nothing to do with struggling Americans. Trump delayed signing that bill, because he believed that all the funds should go to CoVid relief.
The really sad thing about your comment is that it highlights how the uninformed have no idea about the platforms of the Republicans and Democrats. They vote for the Democrat Party, thinking it is the party of classical liberalism for the little people, not understanding that it has moved miles away from that. It is the party of big business - the one percenters! Why do you think Trump is so popular? His policies were for the people. Why do you think the CEO's did not support Trump? Because Trump is adamantly against exploitative outsourcing/insourcing of cheap labor that keep wages down, destroy jobs and decimates cities. The CEO's, backed by Democrats fought him on that every step of the way. They want the status quo to fill their already bulging bank accounts on the backs of cheap labor. Now Biden has rolled back Trump's tax cuts (including for the middle class) and ramped up exploitative outsourcing/insourcing of cheap labor.
In addition: $6 trillion Biden spending in 100 days! Who the h. do you think is going to pay for that? You know, Turbo Teddy, I suggest you start learning about economics, finance and business and how to read and listen to the news with discernment. Voting for the wrong people for uninformed and wrong reasons always swings to bite those voters. Learn where the $6 trillion comes from and the very severe consequences for healthy economies.

I actually don't know how the scandal and pressure against Donald Trump could have got any worse. Clinton, Comey, Biden (he was particularly proactive in that meeting on Jan 5 when they plotted how to frame an innocent man, knowing he was innocent), Strzok, Page, McCabe, Rosenstein, Mueller et al, Brennan, Obama (he was in the Jan 5 meeting and was also briefed about Hillary Clinton's lies by Brennan, but stayed quiet instead of putting a top to the plot) should be in chains.

Ouch! You obviously watch the mainstream media where they do not show what is happening today around theft. In California, thieves can steal up to $900.0 worth of goods and not be arrested or prosecuted. There are videos showing such thefts in progress, as store personnel and shoppers stand by and watch. There are videos of gangs of thugs entering stores and escaping with bags of goods, everyone looking on. Major stores are leaving jurisdictions that don't prosecute thieves to the detriment of the people and the area. We have just been through a protracted period of street burning, smashing, burning and looting - picking large stores clean - with no consequences for the culprits.
The mindset of Biden Regime supporters is that poor people have a right to steal, because they are unable to purchase the goods themselves.
There are many issues surrounding the banks; however, who are the banks? They are public corporations with thousands of shareholders. If you have a pension, or a mutual fund, or any other kind of savings, you are likely to be one of the owners.

mkbxtr44 - President Trump has delivered the best economy and job situation for ordinary Americans and all ethnic groups ever in U.S. history. Under Obama/Democrats, the economy grew at less than half the rate, and Obama publicly declared that it was impossible to improve beyond that level. He also doubled the national debt to over $10 trillion. Do you have any idea who pays for that mind-boggling debt or where it went?. Hard working Americans pay big time, either directly or through interest payments on the debt -- interest payments that otherwise could have been used for badly needed essential services. Do you think rich Democrats have your interest in mind? Democrats want open borders and unvetted immigration. Do you have any idea what that does? It crowds Americans out of jobs, reduces wages, and takes up billions of tax-funded and borrowed dollars for the extra services they need -- that is precious funding that would otherwise to schools, infrastructure, etc. I challenge you to check out the richest Americans, then trace the companies they have been responsible for creating and add up the millions of jobs that have resulted.
Do you have any idea why many CEO's won't support Trump? Because he is trying to end outsourcing and insourcing that exploits foreigners by paying them bottom wages. What are the results of these activities? massive job losses, businesses and manufacturers leaving the U.S. and huge downward pressure on wages. I could go on and on.
I suggest you do yourself a favour and sign up for some economic and finance courses. To understand exactly which political policies actually help Americans and which do not. Also, to set yourself up for a life of security without reliance on corporations, government or even your own family.
How many welfare families have you seen lift themselves up to become millionaires? Truth is that they don't, because they become reliant on those payments, courtesy of taxpayers. How many financially independent people do you think have lifted themselves up to become millionaires and billionaires? Thousands. Read Forbes's list of billionaires. It is full of self-made billionaires -- the people who create the businesses and jobs.

John M Some thoughts for you.
HEALTHCARE: Did you know that America pays more in government-funded healthcare than any other country in the world? It has a two-tier healthcare system, just as every other Western country has, other than Canada. (Canada's system is broken and not sustainable.) U.S. funded healthcare is under Medicare and Medicaid. A Swedish healthcare authority was once interviewed about Sweden's healthcare system. (Sweden, by the way, also has two-tier health -- private & public.). He said that what many don't understand is that its healthcare is good, courtesy of American equipment and drugs.
POVERTY vs RICH: Approximately 11.3% pre-CVQ live below the US poverty line, bearing in mind that poverty in the US doesn't come close to poverty in developing countries, although uncontrolled immigration, sanctuary cities, liberal policies and drugs are transforming "relatively comfortable poverty" into street poverty. (Personally, I am adamantly against allowing poverty to fester on the streets.)
BEZOS & BUFFET: Take half of Bezos's and Buffet's money away?!! Think about what you are saying, right out of the playbook of socialism/communism. A prime reason those political philosophies, as well as high taxes, have never worked and never will work is that innate to human beings is the expectation to be rewarded for their work -- incentive to innovate, create and be successful; not to work damn hard and pass your reward on to someone who has not produced the same results, or in millions of cases, not worked at all.
BEZOS: How many people do you think work at Amazon? 840,000! Maybe more now, as a result of the CVQ. That's just the Amazon employees. How many peripheral jobs do you think Amazon produces through distribution, technology applications, manufacturers, small and large businesses that sell their products on Amazon, authors, equipment supplies, trucking...on and on - millions of jobs. All courtesy of Amazon, one man who had the courage, innovation and smarts to create a business that hundreds of millions of people in the world use. He deserves his billions. Albeit, I can't stand the man's politics. Why do you think he hates and won't support Trump. I am sure he has many gripes, but a major one is because President Trump is adamantly against the exploitive outsourcing and insourcing of cheap labor that keeps wage down, eliminates jobs and decimates manufacturing. Greedy CEO's want to maintain the status quo to fill their bank accounts on the backs of cheap labor. That is not just a U.S. issue; it is a Western-world issue.
BUFFET: How many hundreds of millions of people have jobs because of Buffet's financing of, and investing in, companies? How about the shareholders of his funds -- large funds that in turn have millions of ordinary investors who profit proportionately to their ownership. Buffet, by the way, has donated approximately $15 billion.
How many jobs do you think are created by the consumer products and services that the wealthy use?
TERMINALLY ILL COUNTRY: It would be very interesting to know where you live, because I can guaranty you that I could have a great debate about the ills of your country. America has been the greatest country in the world: Saved Britain from being defeated in two world wars, Russia in one (Lend lease agreements with both Russia and Britain); grew its economy to the greatest in the world with free enterprise, creation and innovation, as other countries experimented with socialism or large socialist government-run organizations. No one can deny that right now the US is ill (Wuhan Virus that decimated the economy, an attempted coup and other seditious plots, and now insurrection supported by Democrats), but terminally ill? Let's hope not. Already a small uptick in the economy, with far better than expected employment numbers just out. The rioting and chaos in America right now have several contributing factors: dumbed-down education, socialist and progressive liberal indoctrination in universities, identity politics, massive and growing government and social programs, massive welfare system that mires families in poverty, open borders, illegal migrants, out-of-control legal immigration, infiltration of drugs, loss of professional journalism, corrupt deep-state operatives, politicians who no longer debate but simply hurl lies, slander, libel and epithets, an ex-president determined to return as a proxy president to fix his shattered legacy. Every single one of these ills originates with, and is perpetuated by, Democrats.
So, yes, if progressive liberal socialism, globalism, identity politics and all its offshoots are not curbed, America's ills will be terminal. If America's ills are terminal, then every other country better wait for a nasty fallout. It is that important that Trump win in November.

@Jorge Ramos -- Your comment is a great example of the ignorance or wilful blindness of the liberals. Present your evidence that Putin meddled, or hold your tongue. Now, there was Russian meddling, but it involved a false dossier with made-up information about Trump, paid for by Hillary Clinton and the DNC controlled by her -- for no less than $12.5 million. This false dossier was used illegally to obtain illegal warrants to spy on the Trump campaign and Trump.
Do you not follow what is going on (as so many liberals do not)? Trump has worked against Russia in a big way: sanctions and bombing Assad in Syria. Nevertheless, he suggests we should work with Russia, just as we work with any other country. That is what good leaders do.
The way liberals talk about Russia, one gets the impression they think it is still a communist country. What exactly has Russia done to the U.S., that the U.S. shouldn't co-operate with it internationally? The cold war and the USSR ended decades ago.
Hispanic unemployment in the U.S., the lowest ever because of Trump's pro-business platform. Work goes on to close the border to illegal hispanic and other illegal migrants. I suggest you start thinking through what happens to any country that allows itself to be filled up with migrants and all and sundry immigrants, rather than those who go through legal channels and are granted entry based on meritocracy.

I don't believe CNN, MSNBC, Washington Post, New York Times, et al generally believed the Steele Dossier for even a second. They knew it was false, tossed journalism out the window, and ran with it. Perhaps a few of the doll hosts believed it, but weren't bright enough, ethical enough, or courageous enough to question it. On the very slim chance that these MSM outfits did believe it, they are equally as culpable for not checking the veracity of the information (thereby missing one of the greatest news stories of our time),

@robertp7209 (1) Totally agree with you. That is exactly how Biden received as many votes as he did (although not enough to win). When Trump announced his candidacy, I was neutral and aware of the early hatred towards him. I knew something was very wrong when all coverage of him was negative. So I started watching his rallies and found that the mainstream coverage was completely opposite to what he was saying. His rallies were good. He laid out his platform and reasons for his decisions. He cared about America and the average person. He even has the courage to be self-deprecating. All reasons he is so popular. I became more and more informed, including about the FBI/OBAMA plots against him. I knew I had to speak out against such appalling corruption.
Many people, still to this day, are unaware of the deep Democrat corruption. I am so flabbergasted by the notion of people supporting such corruption, I make a point of questioning them to find out why. I have discovered that, almost universally (except for extreme-left globalist, neoliberal socialists intent on changing the world) that people are totally uninformed. They parrot what they hear on the mainstream news, such as CNN, without substantiation, reason or intelligence. They are totally unaware that Democrat liberalism is no longer the classical liberalism they think they are supporting; that the Democrats are partnered with large corporations, while Trump conservatives are for American people. Some now have an inkling about the fabricated plots against Trump, but are unaware of the details. The loss of professional journalism is one of the most serious crises we face today, so dire the consequences for functional democracy. Ironic, because as the "great reset" is ramped up, with CoVid lockdowns, as a springboard, one of the tenets of globalism (evident in Biden's address to Congress, is totalitarian, fascist government - the one percenters and top bureaucrats getting things done without having to worry about what the people think or how they will vote). We are learning very quickly who the stakeholders are that Klaus Schwab, head of the World Economic Forum, mentioned from Davos, when he pronounced that capitalism was dead, and that the new system was "stakeholder capitalism." Now, added to that, is censorship and silencing opponents, two tactics used in 1930s Germany to bring Hitler to power and maintain his power.

The tools that 1930s Germany, the USSR, and Eastern Bloc used are alarmingly similar to tools the Democrat Party in the US is using now: censorship; attacking, indicting and killing opponents; propaganda and lies posing as news; indoctrination of students; loss of free speech in corporations, governments, schools and universities; re-education camps (I used to list this one as a potential; it has now happened in the US); racist divisions with benefits to certain races and not others (Critical Race Theory); attacking, killing, destroying, burning, smashing, breaking-in, looting, occupying (ANTIFA, BLM) with Democrat authorities standing by and encouraging or allowing to happen; taking jobs, opportunities and businesses away from political opponents; projection (totalitarian fascists accusing those against such doctrines of being totalitarian fascists); government control (vaccine passports); fraudulent elections (2020); cooperation between big business and corrupt governments, on and on....
Every single example on my list happened under those totalitarian regimes and is happening now under Biden (with uptakes from the likes of Shetrude in Canada; Johnson in the UK; Jacenda Arden in New Zealand; Emmanuel Macron in France; Angela Merkel in Germany; Scott Morison in Australia.....)

@Amidat - Cage spaces started in the 50s/60s as a result of a huge number of migrations from the mainland during the Chinese Civil War and a surge in birth rates in a successful economy. The population increased from 2,015,300 in 1951 to 3,129,648 in 1961. In response the HK Gov. started building housing estates; however, the response could not keep up with the surge. Cage homes became popular among migrant workers, as the rental fee was low. They had a choice. They didn't have to be there.
These cages still exist as the HK Gov. has instituted a single-person scoring system for public housing and lowered public housing quotas. New immigrants are required to wait seven years to become Hong Kong permanent residents. Poor migrants are often forced to live in the cages until they receive a Hong Kong ID card. (Information from Wikipedia)
In addition to migrants are tourists. 4.5 million in 2001 to 47.3 million in 2014, mainly from Mainland China, outnumbering tourists from all other countries combined. In 2017, tourists rose to 58.47 million, 44.45 million from Mainland China, accounting for 76% of the total. (Information from Forbes)
So, what are the lessons here: (1) We live in the days of the internet. So easy to research information before you rattle off with half-true innuendos designed to demean a group. It appears there are strong arguments that Hong Kong would be better off, if it were still under British jurisdiction, albeit the Chinese Government still grants it financial/commercial freedoms as a designated Special Administrative Region. (2) An important lesson for those in the West, especially liberal politicians, because their culpability is great, about what will happen with open borders, and even uncurbed legal immigration. Such an ugly scenario already showing its ugly head in North American western cities (sanctuary cities, such as Chicago, and cities such as San Francisco, Seattle, Vancouver, B. C.), except that in the West they litter the streets with their tents feces and drug needles. No covered cage rooms for them. I have always been flabbergast at the foolish British agreement to hand Hong Kong back to China. Hong Kong used to be the best place in the world for business. Now it is the third best place.
So, you see there are multiple contributors to the introduction of cage "apartments," but the singular most significant cause is the infiltration of migrants from China and a city struggling under massive overpopulation. Next time, do your homework and become a commentator with credibility.

It is hardly surprising that Olga Smirnova left the Bolshoi Ballet because of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Surely, as a Russian, she must know about Ukraine's shelling of the Donbass, with over 14,000 Russian men, women and children killed by the shelling to date, as the Russian Army encircles the nazified Azov Militia to neutralize it to stop the shelling. She may or may not have known that crucial reason for the war, as dancers tend to be insularly focused on dance, but it is hardly surprising she left. Her husband works for Goldman Sachs.
And, by the way, this war was not started by Russia. As Biden's threats against Putin escalated, Putin and Lavrov consistently asked for diplomacy to stop the Ukrainian killing of Russians in the Donbass and stop the infusion of US/NATO on Russia's border. Their calls fell on deaf ears. You can watch the sequences. They all played out on the internet, so shame on those who either don't bother to learn the issues, or deliberately cover them up to support the uninformed, vitriolic hatred against Russia and Russians. This is Biden's war with Russia, using Ukraine, from which he has done his share of plundering, as a proxy. Hunter Biden/Burisma $83,000/ month for a no-show board seat is just a very small example of Biden theft -- and, now, news that Hunter Biden invested heavily in the BioWar Labs in Ukraine where does it end.
The loss of balanced, fully-true, professional journalism at media outlets, such as ABC, is one of the worst crises we face today, the dire aftermath and destruction of which will play out long after Putin defeats the Azov Militia, rescues Ukraine from corrupt oligarchs, US/NATO profiteering and foreign aid, much of it siphoned into US bank accounts.

@jimjones3287 TAXES. President Trump cut taxes for all Americans and businesses across the board. Shame on you for not knowing that. You might want to start learning about what happens when taxes on the wealthy (who create the jobs and industries) are increased. You can start right at home in California. A total disaster. A fallen state.
IRAN AND NUCLEAR WAR
President Trump not once threatened nuclear war with Iran. He simply warned against it and zapped an Iranian terrorist leader, Qassem Soleimani, working with terrorist insurgents in Iraq. Did you ever read just the summary of the Obama/Iran deal that Biden is now reinstating? I guess not. If you had, you would understand that it is a very dangerous agreement that ensures Iran will become a nuclear power, putting all of the Middle East in danger.
VENEZUELA
Trump supplied trucks with food supplies for starving Venezuelans. Maduro's goons set them on fire. Didn't see that? Of course not, the mainstream liberal media did not carry it. If you bother to do your homework away from the corrupt mainstream news, you will discover some interesting facts about Trump's stance with Venezuela. He was adamantly against Maduro's destruction of the country. He was also not taken with Guaidó, considering him weak, but received pushback from his team, as the US was supporting Guaidó. Trump contemplated meeting Maduro, not because he endorsed his actions, but because he believes it is always good to talk. In view of the overall US position against socialism in Venezuela, such a meeting did not happen, but the facts are a huge stretch from a "coup in Venezuela."
If you are interested in inappropriate coups, I recommend you hunker down to some research on the Obama/Biden initiated Maidan Coup in Ukraine; Hillary Clinton's regime-change policies and support of ISIS in Syria and certain factions in Libya, bringing chaos and civil war to both countries, and death and destruction to millions in the middle east. How interesting that you, an obvious liberal, would be angry about an imagined US coup against Venezuela, yet be silent about Ukraine, Syria and Libya. Of course, the nearest and most shameful attempted coup was the FBI/CIA/Democrat plot to remove President Trump, using a false dossier, funded by Hillary Clinton, as the reason to do that.
TRUMP FOR THE PEOPLE
Four of the top reasons Trump is so popular, the champion of the people: (1) He exposed the insidious corruption of the Deep State, the Democrat Party and the left-liberal media. (2) Because of his platform and message, people became cognizant of the switch that has taken place between Republicans and Democrats. The Democrat Party, once the party of classical liberalism, now a left-wing, socialist-leaning party for big business and the one percenters. Trump Republicans, the party for the people. (3) Ever wonder why CEOs would not, and still don't support Trump? Because he is adamantly against the exploitative outsourcing/insourcing of cheap labor that keeps wages down, destroys jobs, kills manufacturing and decimates cities. CEOs want the status quo of globalist cheap labor to fill their already bulging bank accounts on the backs of cheap labor. This issue was central to the Trump Administration. It is also central to so much of what has gone wrong with economies and societies. Democrats fought him at every turn. Biden has cancelled all the important initiatives against this destructive trend, although, touch wood, he has not cancelled the USAMC trade agreement. (4) President Trump, the first president and likely the last, to forego his presidential salary (while giving up his position in his multi-billion-dollar, multinational organization), an indication, along with his courage against the plots and corruption against him that he really cares for the American people.

My question is why did Canadians vote for him - how many times? He disappeared under shadows of night from a tony school where he was a part-time teacher before he entered politics. There were rumors about why, but no one knew for sure. Then before one of his elections, a father told the story. Trudeau had been caught in an inappropriate s. affair with a minor student, the father's daughter. Trudeau subsequently had her sign a very lucrative NDA, one assumes, after she reached the age of majority. Her father signed no such agreement, and thought Canadians should know before the election. That incidence should have precluded Trudeau from any public office, let alone the PM's office and, now, hopes for SG of the UN. Many Canadians are notoriously uninformed about both domestic and geopolitics. Is it because they don't care? Are not savvy enough to do their own research? Or is it because Trudeau has a lock on the MSM, particularly CBC.

Part-time drama teacher and recreational skateboarder. He disappeared overnight from the school where he was teaching. There was hearsay and rumors about why, but no one knew for sure. Then during his penultimate campaign, a father told the story. Apparently, Tr. had been engaged in an unacceptable s. affair w. his daughter, a minor student, not yet 15 years old. He was caught and fired. He subsequently had the student (hopefully then of the age of majority) sign a very lucrative non-disclosure agreement. The father pointed out that he signed no such NDA. He thought people should know the truth before the election. He told it through a Vancouver newspaper.
Astonishingly, Canadians voted for Tr. anyway! Why? Canada has a huge immigrant population that supports chain (family without regard for merit) immigration. Canada has a large immigrant population that works for various Canadian governments. Tr. paid off the mainstream media - huge funding for media that would otherwise have gone under. Those outlets are in his pocket, don't publish adverse news about him. Canada tends to be left-wing. Voters in Canada are notoriously uninformed - not surprising with a corrupt, biased media, beholden to Tr. Whichever of these reasons or combinations of reasons motivated people to vote for this totally inept man, the picture is not pretty.

@JV-yd4qg Don't get me wrong. I support the British Monarchy. I believe they are highly valuable for Britain for many reasons, their charitable work being one of the lesser reasons; however, if a second-tier royal like Meghan starts to pull her weight and make unacceptable comments, I could swing the other way. In any event after seeing her comments about President Trump, I have no admiration for her whatsoever. Many countries do just fine with charitable work and international co-operation (in this case, making niceties with Commonwealth heads of state -- that's all it is, as the royals are required to be apolitical) without a royal family. Meanwhile, I believe the British are masters at pomp and circumstance, and the rest of the world loves it -- very positive for Britain, economically. If the British don't get a hold of themselves, leave the EU and control immigration into their country, there will be a day, unfortunately, sooner than later, when the Royal Family will be pushed out.

Andrew? What on earth has happened to the British justice system, the pillar of a free, democratic country that relies on the rule of law? Innocent until proven guilty, turfed out the window. There is a photo of Andrew with his accuser, who looks decidedly over the age of majority and pretty happy too. She had a middle-class upbringing, so had the background to make sound decisions at her apparent age then - seventeen. Interesting how juvenile criminals can be tried as adults, but when it comes to female accusers months short of the age of majority, they are considered to be children. Frankly, I doubt this woman's accusations. She has a reputation as a deep-pockets chaser. She has already bagged $500,000 (I believe) in connection with related accusations, and has pocketed considerably more in hawking her story. I have watched too many women falsely accuse men. It prevents me from falling hook line and sinker for her twenty-year old victim story. In my view, her word against his is not sufficient evidence.
Was Andrew foolish to have befriended E. Yes. He has already admitted that. Many more public figures visited E, including Britain's famous Stephen Hawking. Meanwhile, the man featured in a photograph, in one of E's residences, posing in a blue dress with red high-heeled shoes, walks free and recently surfaced to put in a word for his corrupt wife.
Meanwhile, walking free, without fear of prosecution, are the lowest of the low, vile pimps who prowl the streets, checking their street workers, plucked from dysfunctional homes, who do not have the wherewithal to make sound decisions, down and out, sick and often addicted to drugs. Also walking free, the treacherous human-trafficking gangs who buy pre-teen children and sell them into the sex trade.
The crowd's perspective is seriously flawed as they scream against Andrew. It's all about the money, political power, and the lemming crowd that does not take time to analyse a story.

Firstly, only fools, the greedy, and uninformed thought real estate (in whatever form) was a safe bet with almost zero risk of losing money. Astounding, because the real-estate downturn prior to the 2008 collapse occurred not that long ago in the 1980's - in recent living memory. Always important to drill down to ultimate causes. Causes of the housing issues today: (1) Massive irresponsible population growth (that is exponential/geometric, not arithmetic). People today, still argue that people should have the right to as many children as they want, especially if they are rich and can afford the children. They give no thought to world-wide competition for the same limited resources on a finite planet. (2) Dysfunctional, inept governments in collusion with greedy developers, because each floor of, say, a 90-floor condominium building, produces a massive flow of taxes to waste. (3) Migrations to the West and the need for more and more housing to accommodate immigrants and migrants. How many of those living in cage homes in Hong Kong migrated from Mainland China? (4) The domino effect of increasing house prices and rents. If that neighbor just sold his house for $1million, then I better get into the market quickly and ask for $1.5 million for my similar house. If that landlord can charge $2,000 for a small bachelor apartment, then I had better increase the rents for my rental suites, etc. (5) The move from individually owned, real-estate development companies, to huge public owned companies, but more troubling off-market private-equity and limited partnerships.
Having said that, we are already at population saturation point. For sustainable living, focus must be on birth control, greatly curbed legal immigration and an end to illegal immigration. If, say, Canada, where migration from China is huge, continues it's open doors, then Canadian cities will be the massively overpopulated new Hong Kongs. New capitalistic forms of commerce and corporations have to be developed to allow for higher wages, corporate ownership and job security. Education will have to be dragged into that mix. Lower taxation will be essential.

@OtayBuckwheat Sounds as if you are attempting to defame President Trump, which, judging by your headshot is extraordinary. One of the most serious crises today is dumbed-down education leading to ignorant electorates who have no idea about economic issues and no idea about the political platforms, activities or accomplishments (good or bad) of the various politicians.
President Trump delivered the best economy in the US EVER for ALL groups (including African Americans and Black Youth), with the lowest unemployment for all the groups (for women the best in 75 years). The Biden Regime has quickly stripped that away, and we are headed into a very scary and inflationary economy. Do you enjoy paying double for your groceries?
Intrigued by the irrational hatred towards President Trump, I would question "liberals." I discovered, without exception, that they knew nothing about him, his actual policies, his initiatives or his accomplishments. That was not all. They also knew nothing about the liberal and Biden agenda. They simply threw my way anti-Trump epithets and slander they had heard on CNN, including the Russia/Trump collusion conspiracy theory. We now know, of course, that it was no less than Hillary Clinton who had started that lie. That is concretely documented, not hearsay or rumor.
Do you have any idea why certain CEOs would not support Trump? Because he is adamantly against the exploitative outsourcing/insourcing of cheap labor that keeps wages down, destroys jobs, decimates domestic manufacturing and makes h. holes out of cities. CEOs want the status quo to increase profits and fill their already overflowing bank accounts on the backs of cheap labor.
Astonishing that, given just those two facts, you, judging by your photograph, would make such an ignorant claim.

Russians are definitely the best dancers. When one checks the information about a great dancer in the West, it is uncanny how often it turns out they were trained under the Vaganova method, had Russian teachers, or were actually trained in Russia. The Vaganova/Russian method focuses on slow, progressive attention to detail, perfecting each step before moving on, strong discipline, and understanding of the importance of turnout. Also, as you indicated, Russians appreciate and love ballet. Ballet is to Russians as football is to Americans. And, of course, let's not forget Balanchine was a product of the Vaganova Academy and the Mariinsky Ballet.

Thank goodness for people such as David Starkey, who have the courage to fight back, without mincing words, against those who advocate censorship, David Starkey being one of thousands of individuals who have been caught in the net of totalitarian fascism creeping from America across the Western world.
Why would he spare Biden, known for his dementia, one of the manifestations of dementia being bed wetting?
Biden, through Jen Psaki, White House press secretary, admitted that the Biden Regime is actively working with Big Tech to censor political opponents with whom they disagree.
David Starkey's sniping at Biden isn't anywhere as tasteless as the difficulties for people under censorship and totalitarian fascism.
Albert Einstein once remarked on all the evil in the world but warned that more evil are those who do nothing about it. Hitler's government started with evils very similar to the evils being perpetrated by woke liberalism today, one such evil being censorship, David Starkey a victim of that censorship, because historical facts don't fit the agenda of modern woke victimhood.
After WW2 an aghast world asked why ordinary Germans had allowed the evils of totalitarian fascism to take hold in Germany. Perhaps you would have been one of those people who did nothing had you lived in Germany, an assumpion arrived at as you reprimand David Starkey for speaking out, albeit in an obtuse manner. Instead you whine about tasteless remarks spoken against one of the major perpetrators today of the evil of censorship and refuse to listen to one of the most knowledgeable experts on Tudor history, in effect becoming a censor yourself.

President Trump, who is on your side, the leader of the free world at the time, was also cancelled (or so the cancellers wish). The parallels of tactics used in 1930s Germany to bring Hitler to power and the tactics being used in the 2020s West are alarming: censorship, silencing and cancelling opponents and those with different opinions, approved propaganda masquerading as news, burning and banishing books, closing down free speech in universities, imprisoning opponents, enemies lists, re-education camps, rioting, smashing stores and looting, taking away jobs, the cooperation of big business with the totalitarians, fraudulent elections, and highly alarming Critical Race Theory).

a. barker He didn't! What they did to General Flynn is beyond evil. Those who support, mitigate, justify, or ignore evil are more evil. As a decent person, you should be outraged that in any country, especially in the US, individuals who are supposed to be in charge of real justice actually plotted to frame an innocent individual and carried out the plot, in order to get rid of another innocent individual and prevent their own corruption from being found out. Their framing of General Flynn is no longer speculation but backed up by actual hard evidence -- so much so, that the prosecutors themselves requested the case be dismissed. Shame on anyone who continues to support this vile travesty of justice. Those who support this gross injustice, ignore the fact that if framing General Flynn goes unpunished, then there is nothing to stop these vile plotters coming for them.

That is false news. Where did you pick it up? CNN? MSNBC? even FOX? Other mainstream media that can no longer be trusted. The Russian army is not bombing Ukrainian cities. It has been going out of its way not to engage civilians. It wants the cities intact with, believe it or not, Ukrainians managing them after the war. Russia has been attacking military facilities around or in the cities. That is an obvious and expected tactic.
Unfortunately, parts of the Azov Militia has embedded itself in civilian areas in cities, using the civilians as human shields, a vile tactic we witnessed from Is. terrorists in Syria. The militia goes as far as not allowing some of the civilians to leave in the humanitarian corridors the Russians have set up.
Do you know details of the Azov Militia? It is a mercenary militia of extreme-right, white supremacists, calling themselves Nazis. That militia, together with the Ukrainian army, has been shelling Russians in the Donbass for 8 years. To date more than 14,000 Russian men, women and children have been killed. Saving the Donbas from that militia is one of Putin's goals for his invasion.

@SgtTurret Without her, you wouldn't indeed have the Europe you have today. How many people would be alive, not mowed down by vans or shot to pieces while enjoying a favorite rock band? Europe would still have a bright future, founded on the culture, standards and innovations of Judeo-Christian history and progress. No-go zones would not have entered the vocabulary of the ordinary person. Censorship wouldn't be rearing its ugly head once more. And the European Union would not be about to collapse into shattered pieces. Even the manufacturing outlook for Germany looking bleak right now.
Some advice for you. Never make assumptions about others and announce them with a threatening roar, without actually having a clue about them. Learn to debate with reason and intelligence without resorting to personally attacking those with whom you disagree, especially before you have even heard what they might have to say. As I mentioned, Merkel has caused untold damage to Europe. That is why she is on her way out. Unfortunately, for Europe, it may be too late, the exponential growth of uninvited populations with different ideas and aspirations, the willing blindness of politically correct authorities and their supporters are on track to replace the Europeans of today.

Painter Mike When a journalist resorts to lies, disrespect, false stories, partisanship, rudeness, either out of fear of a boss and to keep a job, or out of personal politics, then that former journalist has no right to continue pretending to be one. The loss of professional journalism (along with the respect that goes with that) is one of the most serious crises facing us today, so dire the consequences. Long past time for a strict federal, and hopefully international, code of ethics for journalists and media companies, with criminal consequences for infractions of the code. In this case, the utter, shameful disrespect that reporter showed the president would count as an infraction, with befitting sanctions against her. There is no chance of decency in society with such "journalists" roaming the media rooms.

Absolutely, debate the issue of "Russian disinformation." That could be interpreted as disinformation about Russia. Frankly, I believe -- without doubt -- that the "Russian disinformation," was nothing less than disinformation concocted by the whole rotten American cabal (FBI, DOJ, CIA, NI, DNC, Fusion GPS, Perkins Coi, their off-shore and domestic spies, with Hillary Clinton, along with her smear agents, at the hub. When following all the different spokes of sedition, one could conclude that it was a handful of cabals working independently but concurrently; however, all the spokes connect with Hillary Clinton, including the inept and/or corrupt "journalists."

In our age of technology, I don't understand this merry-go-round on voting: Voting should all be done online with military-level encryption: When a child of American parents is born, part of the birth registration would be to enter that child into a federal voting database. The account would be locked until the child reaches voting age, when the account would be opened on voting day. Access to the account would be by facial/eye configuration. Once he she has voted the account would automatically lock until next voting day. As votes are cast, they would be simultaneously added to the vote count that would be visible to the public. When the account owner dies, part of the death registration would be to close the account. If, for some reason that process was not done, facial and eye recognition would still prohibit anyone else from voting. The same process would be in place for naturalized citizens. Such a process would eliminate votes from dead people, fraudulent ID, vote harvesting and double voting. There would be no need for any mail-in ballots. A citizen could vote from any computer terminal. To double down against voting harvesters (someone could sit beside a senior citizen and coerce him/her to vote a particular way, there could be voting stations in seniors' homes with cameras, and legislation with long prison terms for anyone caught harvesting votes. State voting systems would need some tweaking to account for people moving from state to state.

@myleshagar9722 In both systems, as they are now, anyone can reap the benefits by investing in public companies (after, of course. learning the ropes). In the West, anyone can start a business and/or company and reap the risk and rewards. Risk and reward are directly correlated. Not sure what you mean by the state continuously supporting so-called private enterprise. Why so called? It is private enterprise. If the state involves itself in private enterprise, it is no longer private enterprise.
The main way Western oligarchs benefit today, in my view, is by exploitive outsourcing and insourcing of cheap labor. So ironic that the millions who trash President Trump also trash their low salaries/wages. Why do you think many business executives and owners -- oligarchs as you call them -- don't support President Trump? Because they want to continue with cheap exploited labor to fill their pockets.
I guess one could call the puppeteers of Google, Facebook and other social media sites today, true oligarchs. Until they are stopped, which must happen, they have enormous political clout, as they banish free speech -- not extremist views, but general conservative views -- from their sites. That fits right into the definition of an oligarch, "a very rich business leader with a great deal of political influence."

Let's be very clear here. Putin DID NOT annex four regions of Ukraine. The people in those regions voted overwhelmingly to be with Russia. No surprise, as all of us who have been following this war, with independent journalists on the ground at the front, know. Ukrainian Azov and other militias have deliberately targeted, shelled and destroyed civilian areas, including killing civilians, themselves, in those areas. The discrimination against Russian-Ukrainians in those areas started in 2014, after the US-initiated, bloody Maidan Coup to oust a duly elected Ukrainian president, because he favored friendly trade relations with Russia. That coup spilled into civil war and Ukrainian Azov genocide against Donbass Russians. The relevant question is what right does the US and West have to interfere in Ukraine and side with genocide, nazism, and a tyrannical, corrupt, bankrupt Ukrainian government.
Here are the results of the referenda in the four areas. To deny this and categorize it as Putin's annexing the areas is disingenuous and dishonest. Denying these facts is equivalent to supporting the Iron Curtain that kept people from leaving tyrannical, despotic, totalitarian former USSR and Eastern Bloc countries, governments very similar to the Ukraine government today.
FINAL RESULTS OF THE REFERENDUM:
✔Donetsk People's Republic - 99.23%
✔Lugansk People's Republic - 98.42%
✔Zaporozhye region - 93.11%
✔Kherson region - 87.05%

Sorry to hear about your job, but actually maybe not so sorry. Losing a job is always a stressful jolt, strangely, even when we are expecting it or actually pushing for such an outcome; however, losing a job can be a blessing in disguise, an important step in our life's journey - a fork in the road. It forces us to assess our goals and aspirations. You are extremely talented (speak English very well; engaging, upfront and open personality; confidence). Of course, there will be a certain amount of stress, but a chance for new directions, goals and people. Think about selling mugs and t-shirts on your channel, albeit, it seems every channel is doing that. An Etsy outlet sounds like a good idea. The very best to you, whatever you decide to do. Maybe you won't lose your job.

What shenanigans would those be, Latoya?!! Let's talk about shenanigans -- in fact, not shenanigans, but outright sedition. Hillary Clinton made up a story about Trump/Russia collusion to detract from her email scandal. How do we know? John Brennan, head of the CIA at the time, briefed Obama. That briefing has been released to the public. She then funded a false dossier to back up her lies. How do we know? Her laundered funds were traced from the DNC through her law firm, Perkins Coie, to her smear agents, Fusion GPS, who were working with the author of the dossier, a former British spy, Christopher Steele. How do we know it was false? The prime source for the lies in the dossier, a suspected Russian spy, who worked for the extreme-left think tank, the Brookings Institute, Igor Danchenko, told us so, under questioning by the FBI and through documents presented in a European court case. Democrat FBI officials used the false dossier to defraud the FISA court to illegally obtain warrants to spy on innocent Americans in the hope of getting to Trump. How do we know? The victims of the spying have told their stories; a Democrat lawyer who changed the wording of a document (email) presented to the court was indicted and pled guilty; the inspector general, investing the situation, revealed the illegal activity; the documents of the culprits planning the plot were leaked; and through sworn testimony. Democrats, with the cooperation of the corrupt media, publicized the false dossier, and continued to spread the lies for almost four years, either knowing it was false, or being so inept, they didn't do the research (the former is more likely). The scandal led to the Mueller Investigation, with his corrupt team, the cooperation of corrupt FBI officials and media, investigating something they knew was false -- in other words investigating their own abhorrent plot.
Latoya, if you think what I have just told you is just fine, then, no matter what your political beliefs, you are devoid of decency, ethics and empathy.

Indeed. If this woman had had the maturity to actually learn the facts about political issues, keep her political beliefs to herself, and embrace the incredible opportunity to be the royal face for, and be involved in, charities of her choosing, along with all the behind-the-scenes back up, free travel, and support teams, she could have become a loved world figure. It didn't happen because she is a political activist and thought that, along with world-wide recognition and royal prestige, she could engage in politics. Not informed enough to have figured out that is a definite no-no as a member of the Royal Family.
Could it be that she doesn't actually love Prince Harry; just loved his royal status -- not the type of male persona or figure one would expect such a self-absorbed, me-woman would lust after. As she moves into the over-forties age realm, loses her looks, and the trash engagements they have scrounged dry up, I predict she will flee Harry's coop, particularly after she has locked in royal heritage for her two children.

Western Civilization has at its historical centre, Judeo-Christian culture that grew out of the Judeo-Christian religions. Western Civilization, from those beginnings, spread the world with all the benefits and innovations of modern life, including all the scientific discoveries and advancements of the Western world. In our modern age of science, religions have lost their thunder. No intelligent person today can possibly believe in a god-created world, or virgin births, or the religious miracles, or the Christian trinity, albeit the admirable dictates and messages of the miracles and biblical stories are worth keeping. Science has rightfully superseded the mythology of religion and must continue to do so in a world where there is only one race, the human race to which we all belong; where meritocracy supersedes identity politics or affirmative action; where Western culture is recognized for its greatness; where great composers, writers, artists, scientists and leaders are revered; where religious freedom is recognized, as long as it involves no abuses, and as long as all public schools, universities, and governments are secular.

In Toronto hundreds of thousands went out to support the Truckers' Convoy. Many trucks. Not one tractor. Some horses, ridden by police were seen heading for the crowds. There would have been more trucks, but the elected officials had the police block many roads. The crowd? Groups, families, couples, singles, white, black, brown, indigenous, Canadians, immigrants, professionals, working class - a complete spectrum of society. The message? The elected officials in charge would be wise to haul out their resumes!

@slangtang6671 (1) My response is going to be too long for one response, so I will do it in sections and number them, so that you can read them in order. I was an adamant supporter of Barack Obama, a nuisance to strangers and friends, as I advocated for him. I had read his book, "Dreams From My Father," and was blown away by an apparent honesty (versus Hillary Clinton's odious sugar coating of herself in her books). I abandoned my natural conservative inclinations and dug in. I thought Romney was nothing but an unethical, greedy corporate vulture (still do) and didn't like McCain. Obama struggled with his identity as he grew up, but on the campaign trail, put himself out to be a slightly left centrist with the maturity to move left or right, depending on the issue in a complex society; someone whose identity struggles had enabled him to rise above the divisions of race, gender and class. It turned out I was so wrong. His administration turned out to be the most corrupt in U.S. politics. Continued....

@slangtang6671 (2) America was hardly a beautiful place under Obama. The economy after 2008 simply did not rebound sufficiently. Obama actually said it could not be done. Pre-Covid, Trump delivered the best economy EVER for all groups (for women, the best in 75 years), manufacturing & businesses returned to America, tax cuts and elimination of extraneous government regulations stimulated business & helped people. Post CoVid, under Trump, unemployment is already as low as 6.5% and GDP increased 33.1%, the highest increase ever recorded (more on that later). Exploitive outsourcing/insourcing of cheap labor that keeps wages down accelerated, in line with Obama's globalism, and was bolstered by the continuation of NAFTA and a proposed new Pacific trade deal that was worse. His deal with Iran was frightening. Did you read the summary? Chilling, pretty well ensuring the threat of future nuclear war in the Middle East, if not actual nuclear war. He did nothing to stop China from manipulating its currency to increase America's trade deficit with China. Continuous trade deficits are extremely bad for a country (subject for another thread). China accelerated its theft of US technology. Indoctrination of students toward socialism and some of the most ridiculous but dangerous trends sprouted out of universities (racist Critical Race Theory; Equal Outcome Theory versus Equal Opportunity; Safe places for students, preventing them from learning how to survive in a difficult world; loss of free speech and attacks on opponents on campuses; gender stretching in the face of science, etc. Continued....

@slangtang6671 (5) Obama's intelligence agencies illegally targeted innocent Americans using his intelligence services. The Obama Administration and Obama left-over civil servants mounted a treasonous attempted coup against Trump. Hillary Clinton created a false story about Trump/Russia collusion while Obama was in office. How do we know? Brennan briefed Obama, and the briefing has been released to the public. At a minimum Obama should have put an end to it. She then funded a false dossier to back up her lies, which was also used to further smear Trump, defraud the FISA court to illegally obtain warrants to spy on innocent Americans in an effort to bring down Trump, and to alienate the American public against him. We now know Obama was in on the corruption. Page wrote to Strzok that POTUS wants to know about everything we are doing. On January 5, 2017, a meeting was held in the White House to plot how to frame an innocent man, General Flynn, knowing he was innocent, in order to avoid his policies and as another effort to bring Trump down. Obama, Biden, Brennan, Susan Rice, Sally Yates and likely Strzok attended the meeting. How do we know? From their own notes. Biden was proactive in the meeting, suggesting using the Logan Act against General Flynn. The framing of General Flynn is one of the most egregious, corrupt incidents in US politics. Now this man Biden, who for years was involved in foreign influence peddling, racketeering and bribery to enrich himself at the expense of America is pretending to have won the presidency. Democrats are actually supporting massive censorship that was involved in hiding evidence of Biden's influence peddling.
You couldn't find a person more disappointed in Obama than me. It all lies in his complex relationship with his father. I have come to the point that perhaps eliminating political parties would be a good thing. Vote for candidates on the basis of their own merits. Why? Because, ignoring ignorant electorates as a result of the loss of professional journalism, the only way I can fathom people voting for corrupt politicians, such as Biden, is that they are voting for a party and whoever happens to represent their party in their districts, or as potential president, even if they are as corrupt as h.

Very important to take time to find out the facts. Wild innuendos without substantiation simply fan the flames of disrespect towards those who are against Obama's political actions and results. Obama made enough factual mistakes and is complicated enough to figure out without having to resort to inaccurate notions to demean him.
No, his name is Barack Obama. Barry is the name he was known by at school in Hawaii, I believe because of difficulties pronouncing the unusual name of "Barack." Satero is the name of his step father. He was on a path of "change." The goal of that change and contributing factors are still a topic of controversy. His first foreign speech was made in Cairo to a wide audience at the University of Cairo. The Muslim Brotherhood was not in power; however, it was fermenting behind the scenes and played a huge role in rendering his speech in Cairo to nothing. He also made the huge mistake of siding with the Muslim Brotherhood, an organization known for terrorism, during the "Arab Spring."
I am not sure what on earth you are talking about as far as an Islamic ring is concerned. Both his father and mother were atheists. His father was already a confirmed atheist when he met his mother. His mother was not brought up with religion and was a secular humanist. His step father saw no useful role for religion. In other words, Obama grew up without religion. His association with the black church when he was a community organizer could be viewed as opportunistic. He recognized the power of the African American church as a tool for change. He says he is a Christian, believes in the redemption of Christianity. Although there were many photo ops of Obama and his family heading for church when he was president, apparently they don't go to church much.
His paternal grandfather initially followed tribal religion, converted to Roman Catholicism, then to Islam, when he took the name, Hussein. The name, not the religion, was passed on to Obama's father, then to Obama.
During her primary campaign against Obama, Hillary Clinton took dirty political to heights not seen before. She was instrumental in sowing the idea that he was a Muslim.
I believe Obama's estranged relationship with his father, his father's history and record, and his paternal family as a whole plays a crucial role in Obama's globalism, misguided acquiescence to Hillary Clinton's regime-change policies, and his naivety about the Middle East.

Digital money is already here, has been for a long time. Where I live, one hardly ever sees physical money. There are many positive aspects of digital money: incredible convenience, immediate payments, easy money transfers, immediate access to bank accounts, huge convenience for business and commerce, etc., etc. The key for total digital currency is corresponding legislation that prohibits people, corporations, banks and particularly governments from having access to accounts, permission to close accounts, or permission to use accounts for other devious means, without written approval of the account holders, with suspected money laundering, handled with specific legalities and advice to the account holders. Infractions of the legislation with criminal consequences.

Custer Nixon How old are you, Custer Nixon? Too young to grasp when news is suspect? Resort to name calling when you are not sufficiently informed of the facts to debate with knowledge, reason and intelligence. Ever heard of David Dorn? He was an African American patriot, family man, community contributer, and retired police captain. During the BLM/ANTIFA riots, he was helping a friend secure his shop when BLM thugs cornered him and brutally murdered him. They filmed their filthy deed and posted it online for all to see. David Dorn lay spread-eagled on the pavement, blood gushing from his head, his lit-up phone still in his outstretched hand. As he tried to bring the phone close to call for help, death took him. The BLM thugs watched in a semi-circle, making no move to help him. As they escaped the scene, they were captured on CCTV, so two were arrested days later. The mainstream news gave this appalling incident little or no coverage. We have heard nothing about the status of the arrests. Nancy Pelosi and her fellow Trump-hating associates knelt in the Capitol Rotunda in honor of BLM. President Trump phoned David Dorn's family to relay his deep sorrow and offer help. People and journalists in Ghana took to Twitter to express their outrage at Nancy Pelosi and her wicked group for wearing scarves with the traditional designs and colors of Ghana as they knelt to honor BLM thugs.

The astounding aspect of this marriage is that Meghan Markle was a known political activist before the marriage, yet the Queen apparently agreed with not only the marriage but also in having the couple represent her, the Head of State of Britain, who, along with her representatives, must be apolitical.
Meghan Markle had publicly trashed President Trump, not with examples of policy and intelligent discussion about why she disagreed, but by slandering him with epithets and names, parotting CNN et al, without reason or intelligence. She had trashed the leader of Britain's greatest ally and continued to be an activist with the pushback eventually causing her to flee, dragging her puerile husband with her.
When Princess Margaret wanted to marry Peter Townsend, the Queen gave her permission, as long as she dropped her royal titles, royal role as a representative of the Queen, royal salaries and benefits -- all because Peter Townsend was a divorced man. Meghan Markle was a divorced woman. Peter Townsend was an equerry to King George V, much loved by him and his family and also the British public as he was an acclaimed ace pilot from WW2. He was diplomatic, discreet, decent and intelligent. He never spoke out of turn. Yet they allowed Meghan Markle, a naive, uninformed political activist to represent the head of state. If the Queen had agreed to the marriage with the same conditions as she/parliament imposed on Princess Margaret if she had gone ahead with the marriage, I expect the result would have been entirely different. Likely with Markle, herself, bowing out, because the conditions would have precluded the fame she was expecting.

@Ken Powers -- a man! or are you a boy! A voter?! When we consider the intellectual capacity of many voters today, we really do have to weep for the future of democracy, already severely compromised by the type of uneducated fools who post comments such as yours. What I find extremely interesting is that it is inevitably liberals who resort to epithets and truly ignorant posts, when it is apparently academia (professors who have always relied on government) that is spreading the absurd diatribes coming out of the New Democrats today.
By the way, President Trump was good looking as a younger man. He also graduated from a top military academy and one of the best business schools in the world. He grew his fathers business of a few million dollars into a multi-national business worth billions of dollars. He beat 16 candidates to become president of the U.S.. His pro-business platform is directly responsible for delivering the best U.S. economy ever, including, you might be interested to know, the best employment for youths ever. How do your accomplishments stand up to those, Ken? Any significant accomplishments? Or are you too busy making a fool of yourself, posting childish comments that you have no accomplishments and are not doing the ground work to pave the way for any future accomplishments.
As a woman, I can tell you categorically, that if you and Trump were the same age, I wold choose him any day, even if you are drop-dead good looking (which I doubt). A partnership without intellectual stimulation is vacuous, dry, boring, and doomed for failure, unless both partners are equally vacuous.

Exactly what I was thinking. Before you mentioned Yanukovych's statement, I posted a comment on Twitter suggesting the US plan is for Poland to merge with Ukraine. Russia with new territories in the East, but no Poland in the East, with a strip for Ukraine down the middle. Rather, Russia in the East, and a Poland/Ukraine merger in the rest of Ukraine, with Poland in charge. Zelensky already made that equality/equal rights deal with Poland the other day. A sneaky, evil US plan: a new territory, Poland/NATO, on Russia's border, with the US still pulling the strings.

So Laura, Hillary Clinton manufactured a false story about Trump/Russia collusion to detract from her email scandal. (How do we know? Brennan, head of the CIA at the time briefed Obama, and the briefing has been released to the public.) She then funded a false dossier -- the Steele Dossier -- to back her lies. (How do we know? Her laundered funds were traced from the DNC, through her unethical law firm, Perkins Coie, to her smear agents, Fusion GPs who were coordinating the false dossier with Christopher Steele, a former British spy. (How do we know it was false? Steele's source told us so, through FBI hearings and through evidence presented in a European court.) That false dossier was leaked to the press, a trigger for Comey to use it against Trump, and the start of the most shameful smear media campaign in US political history. The filthy untrue smear campaign went on relentlessly for almost four years. Liberal/Obama members of the FBI, DOJ, CIA, DNS were involved in the lies. They used the false dossier to defraud the FISA court to illegally spy on innocent people in an attempt to topple Trump. BIDEN was very proactive in a meeting at the White House with Obama, Comey, Brenan, Yates, Rice and Strzok during which the plotted how to frame an innocent man, General Flynn, knowing he was innocent, in yet another attempt to topple Trump, without a care about destroying his life and the lives of the other innocent individuals on whom they spied. What kind of a person are you, Laura? Did your family and schools/universities teach you no honor, no decency, no ethics that you would support the deep and shameful corruption waged against a duly elected president, calling some neophyte in congress a hero, because, for some unknown reason, he's decided to join the corruption.

@SuperTruthful -- an odd pseudonym for someone who is not smart enough to debate with facts, reason, and intelligence, but, instead, resorts to bullying ("cuz drumpf is a clown") -- name calling is nothing but depraved bullying and certainly not an argument. It is practised when the perpetrator does not have the wisdom, education, intelligence or knowledge to debate an a mature and informed way.
You know Trump is a liar? What has he lied about? Make damn sure you substantiate your response with evidence -- accurate evidence.
The hatred towards President Trump is nothing less than irrational hatred, unfortunately perpetrated by a colluding fake mainstream press (caught colluding with Hillary Clinton and the Clinton-controlled DNC in their own emails). Sadly such a press, devoid of any semblance of professional journalism, preys on victims who are uninformed and without the wherewithal to research the real facts. They end up voting in ignorance for the wrong people for the wrong reasons, then wonder why things go so wrong for them.
Shame on those, particularly women, who have thrown decency and ethics to the wind to support Hillary Clinton and her corrupt team. Shame on those who blindly vote for the Democrats who are part of the most shameful political scandal in U.S. history, not to mention policies of open borders, trade deficits, sanctuary cities and government handouts, all of which have one ultimate end -- implosion of the wellbeing of a country.

Good for General Flynn for suing his former lawyers. Either gross ineptitude or gross malfeasance. Neither pretty. The entrapment of General Flynn was odious, despicable, chilling and deeply troubling. The culprits, including Yates, Comey, McCabe, Strzok, Page, Pientka (?), and any others must be held accountable with, in my view, time in prison. In an apparently great democracy such as the U.S., there must be laws to swiftly bring these seditious wrong doers to justice. General Flynn must not be pardoned. HE MUST BE EXONERATED. If he is not, then there is no justice in America.

Why on earth was there an urgent need to fortify defences in Europe against Russia? Inept European and US leaders appear to have missed that Russia is not the collapsed USSR. It is an entirely new country, a federal republic, not unlike the US, with the checks and balances of executive, judicial and legislative branches. Russia under Putin (or in fact since its emergence post USSR) had never - not once - threatened or invaded the US or any of the Western countries now waging war against it.
Patrick, you are a man of research. Do your research on this war - the history, events and players that led to it. Pay particular attention to Liz Truss. Before the SMO, she screeched on UK TV that Britain would target anyone in the Kremlin who had anything to do with the continuation of Russia, a reckless, ignorant declaration of war to wipe Russia off the map. She carried that vicious message to Moscow to meet Sergey Lavrov, the world renowned diplomat. He was disgusted. It was a trigger. Not to negate Biden's role: US point man in Ukraine over the US-initiated Maidan Coup to oust a duly elected Ukrainian president, because he favored friendly trade with Russia. The coup spilled into civil war and Ukrainian genocide against Donbass Russians (one of they key causes of the war); Goebbelsian campaign of hatred and vilification of Putin and Russia out of the blue, while orchestrating a massive Ukrainian military increase at the Donbass/Russian border, not reported in the MSM; US explosion of Nord Stream; ensconsement of US/NATO in Ukraine, a non-NATO country; campaign to make the world believe Russia started the war and that the US/West/NATO is protecting the freedom and democracy of Ukraine, the most anti-democratic, corrupt country in Europe and one of the worst in the world.
Putin believes in a multipolar world of cooperation among independent, national countries. The US believes in a unipolar world, its hegemony resulting in continuous wars and destruction.

Web of sinister deceit and practices, indeed. The web that Clinton spinnerets spat into U.S. politics, the start of the massive downward spiral of Democrat ethics we are witnessing today. Hillary Clinton is like a bowl of that awful cereal, Grapenuts that seem to grow in one's cereal bowl, never ending, mouth drying and choking. She never goes away; keeps appearing with more and more outrageous absurdities. Lately I have been wondering if the Clintons still control the DNC. Why else would the Democrats tolerate the relentless insertion of such additional poison into their midst? As she meddles in this election, I have wondered if she has made a deal with proxy Biden/Obama for another high position if he were to win. After all Obama's first action as president was to appoint Hillary Clinton as his SofS, thereby greatly endangering any admirable legacy.
So did Epstein/Maxwell demand that this relation be catapulted into the State Department, or they would tell all? Or did Hillary Clinton voluntarily catapult him into her department to keep them quiet? Shocking, especially in view of the appalling destruction Hillary Clinton caused in Syria, Libya and to a lesser extent Egypt with the phoney Arab Spring.

That article from The Hill is ridiculous. Russia has no intention of invading any of the US, EU, UK, West, NATO countries. The elephant in the room is that Black Rock, particularly, is apparently already invested in Ukraine and certainly expects a ROI. US original intentions for Ukraine, whether fulfilled or not. MIC, FIRA, and OGAM profits
Military Industrial Complex profits
Financial, Insurance and Real Estate profits
Oil, Gas and Mining profits.

@alexjon6215 Lied about the struggles in her country? You have to be kidding! We are very well aware of the horrors and struggles in her original country, even without her knowledgeable accounts. No one in Europe giving her the time of day?!! Enough people in Europe have given her the time of day to accept her as a refugee and student, and vote for her to be a member of the House of Representatives in the Netherlands; then become a best selling author, and professor in the U.S. -- that's right in the woke U.S. sometimes in front of activist students.
Ayaan Hirsi Ali is an apostate, that means at a minimum being ostracized and isolated, at a maximum receiving a death sentence. She has the courage, integrity, ethics and common sense that you likely will never have. Shame on you for your libellous and untrue comments. I don't know what your agenda is that you resort to such tactics; however, your opposition to her, suggests something ugly and exposes you as a coward for not having the courage to state the reasons for your opposition and to resort to childish bullying and lies, instead of debating your issues with reason and intelligence.

No way this couple can ever return to representing the British Head of State, not after their woke, highly uninformed, political activism. Frankly, I was shocked that the British Government and the Royal Family had overlooked her highly inappropriate political activism before she became a member of the RF. She had publicly, without, knowledge, reason or intelligence, trashed the Head of State of Britain's long-time closest ally. How can anyone engaged in such activity ever represent, with credibility, the British Head of State who is required to be apolitical?

@John Hoyle So, John, you must have skipped economics in school, if you think Trump was incompetent.
Incompetent?
President Trump brought business principles to the Oval Office. As a result he delivered the best economic results EVER for all groups of people: African Americans, Black Youth, Latinos, Women (best in 75 years). The lowest unemployment rates and increasing opportunities. His tax cuts, elimination of needless government regulations, and personal negotiations with business leaders resulted in these huge improvements.
The number of illegal migrants had trickled to the lowest for many years as a result of his policies and wall.
Significant initiatives included ending NAFTA that had drained American jobs; ending the Iran agreement that had Iran on the way to producing nuclear weapons; confirming US support of Israel and moving the US embassy to Jerusalem (Israel being the one democracy in the Middle East); creating dialogue with N. Korea; working against the exploitative outsourcing/insourcing of cheap labor that keeps wages down, destroys American jobs, kills manufacturing and decimates US cities; reducing the price of prescription drugs; fixing the wrongs of ObamaCare; business opportunities in low-income areas; security by preventing unvetted entrants from failed states; school choice for parents; initiatives to end destructive trade deficits, particularly with China; initiatives to prevent China from stealing technology; successful agreements for peace in the Middle East; saving taxpayers billions by refusing to pay the way for the UN and NATO; policies to assist ordinary working Americans; incredible support and funding for the military, veterans and their families; etc.
Biden has reversed all the successful initiatives of the Trump Administration. Now America is in the worst mess of our lifetime and has become the laughing stock of the world. Biden has created $6 trillion Buden Dollars out of thin air in just 100 days to increase the size of, and dependency on, government. Are you and your children ready for the fallout of that, John? Think Venezuela. Think collapsed USSR and Easter Bloc.
Corruption
Democrats tried and tried again and again to find Trump corruption. They failed. They just don't want to admit that he is a pretty straight up guy. Not into corruption. Biden on the other hand involved himself in illegal foreign influence peddling, gaining enormous riches for himself at the expense of taxpayers. He was also deeply involved in the plot against the president. His corruption is so extensive it would take another thread, another time, to explain.
Do your research, John, because details of Biden's corruption are extensive from highly reputable journalists -- the few remaining journalists who investigate, check and name their sources, as well as direct evidence on videos featuring Biden himself. If you are a decent person and were just being glib in your comment, then you should care. The woke, totalitarian, fascism of the Biden Regime will end badly for the country you, and your family.

@loaf3833 Do you know what "fascism" means? it's a word that seems to evolve according to what an individual wants it to mean. It was coined by Mussolini to describe his political beliefs: authoritarian, totalitarian control of a nation and its economy. That is the opposite of Trump Republicans today and far closer to the Democrat Party (censorship, silencing of opponents, taking jobs away from opponents, more and more power in government).
I once said to someone I know who is a left-leaning liberal the she should be very clear about what she is supporting. The Democrat Party is no longer the party of classical liberalism, or, as you put it "liberal democratic capitalism." It has veered much further left, and, in fact, under Biden has crossed the line into totalitarianism. There has been a 180 degree switch in platforms. Trump was (and is) for the ordinary working men and women. Any idea why so many CEO's would not support Trump? Because he is adamantly against the exploitative outsourcing/insourcing of cheap labor that keeps wages down, kills jobs for Americans, eliminates manufacturing and decimates cities. The CEOs and their liberal partners want the status quo to make large profits on the backs of cheap labor. The Democrats fought him at every step of the way when he attempted to change that paradigm to eliminate the outsourcing/insourcing, bring manufacturing home and prevent workers being brought into the country at cheaper rates to replace American workers who had to train the foreign workers before they were fired in order to claim their severance pay. He had a filmed meeting with such workers, who were losing their jobs and had to train their cheaper replacements. He immediately signed an initiative to stop the practice. Biden has reversed that. The Democrat Party has become the party aligned to big and often corrupt corporations. Why do you think Trump is so popular with working men and women? Because he has their backs.
As far as neo-Nazis and fascists are concerned, I urge you to research the tactics used in 1930's Germany to bring Hitler to power and maintain his power. The parallels to tactics being used by Democrats today are chilling and alarming. They include censorship; silencing opponents; attacking opponents; falsely indicting opponents; taking business and jobs away from opponents; smashing shops and looting; banning or burning books; indoctrination of school children and university students; banning free speech in universities; promoting and rewarding people on the basis of race, and skin color; re-education camps; false propaganda posing as news; government interference in business (fascism); and cooperation of big business and totalitarian government; attempted coups; and fraudulent elections. Every single one of the activities I have listed has been suggested and most carried out by Democrats today.
If you think the Democrats are not moving towards socialism, you haven't been paying attention. During the election campaign, every single Democrat contender supported socialist initiatives. What banner do you think the creation of over $6 trillion Biden Dollars in less than 100 days comes under? Where do you think the money came from? Who is going to pay for it? Read the initiatives behind the creation of that money. They involve huge goverment and government control, by working with and giving preference to companies that sign on to the "reset." They also involve massive handouts to various people and corporations that have nothing to do with the specific initiatives. Pure pork barrel. The road to pure socialism.
Biden has cancelled every single successful Trump initiative. He's doing it to appease the left wing of the Democrat Party. In fact, to be fair, Biden is actually doing nothing. He has serious dementia and cannot string two sentences together without a script. An extreme left-wing group is pulling the strings in the shadows.
Frankly, the initial plot (Russia/Trump fabrication) against Trump initiated by Hillary Clinton and carried to the max by the Democrat Party and corrupt civil servants and media was the most shameful episode in US politics to be followed by two sham impeachments. Even if I believed in the socialist, left-wing platform of the Democrat Party today, I would never vote for them and put back into power the seditious, corrupt individuals who orchestrated those plots and are orchestrating the mess we see today.

Do you understand what you are saying? A major reason for the Russian invasion in to save the Russians in the Donbass from being shelled by the Azov Militia and Ukrainian army. Over 14,000 Russian men, women and children have been killed to date.
The Azov Militia is a mercenary militia of extreme-right, white supremacists that call themselves N*z*i*s. Their flag is the Ukrainian flag with a swastika. It has been embedded & encouraged in Ukraine for years. Parts of that militia have set themselves up in civilian areas of Ukrainian cities, using the civilians as human shields, resulting in civilian collateral damage. In some cases they are not allowing those civilians to leave through corridors that the Russians have arranged for civilians to leave.
George, you need to do the research to properly understand this war, rather than drinking the appalling, blind, irrational hatred towards Russians that the liberal media and #BidenRegime are stirring up.
The other central issue for this war is the US attempt to entrench NATO on Russia's border through Ukraine. Putin warned as long ago as 2008 that NATO, now an offensive force, would not be tolerated on Russia's border. The US is attempting a forceful presence of NATO on the border. It has already initiated NATO related activities, such as training and infusing weapons in Ukraine. In 1962 the USSR attempted to position missiles in Cuba directed at the US. The US would not tolerate that and stopped it, risking nuclear war at the time. So why on earth would anyone think Putin should happily accept such a force on his border? The notion is absurd and dangerous.
The US is interested in a Ukraine/NATO/EU arrangement as it would be extremely profitable for the US Military Industrial Complex as well as other US economic sectors. It's all about the money.
The US has been in Ukraine for 8 years, 3 of which Zelensky has been in power. They have done absolutely nothing for Ukraine. It is a morally and economically bankrupt country -- filled with high level corruption, and survives on foreign AID.
Ukrainians will be much better off as a peaceful, neutral country (one of Putin's demands), with trade and other relationships with Russia. without the presence of US corruption and aggressive NATO threats. Zelensky, as president, is in a position to make that happen, so Ukrainians can live peacefully and succeed for their families.
Biden is a treacherous war-monger. In my view he and various members of his regime should be tried as war criminals.

Why is it racist to wonder what color the skin of a child of a mixed-race couple will be? We speculate about hair color, eye color and, yes, skin tone, of unborn children all the time, so why is it off bounds for a mixed-race couple? Seems that making it out to be racist is racist in itself. In my view, there is only one race in this world, the human race, made up of people with different melanin levels. Skin color is simply another physical attribute, such has hair color, hair texture, skin tone, height, beauty, etc., some of the very beautiful being children of mixed-colored parents, those children having skin color all the way from dark to white. I think Meghan simply brought that up to a shocked BLM supporter, Oprah Winfrey, in order to drag in race to attack a family that has given their lives up to service for people with millions of different skin tones.
As for BLM, that organization is not about race, it is a self-declared Marxist organization that has at its core, the intention to dismantle Western culture, history, standards and accomplishments. Shame on Oprah Winfrey for giving this couple a pass on their outrageous accusations.

The universal, appalling lies about this war from the West is beyond shameful. Vicious, goebbelsian propaganda that, would be laughable, were it not so dangerous, destructive and persuasive for those without the time or inclination to go beyond the MSM to learn the real facts.
When searching on google for news, photos or videos, one would think from the headlines that Ukraine has done nothing to promote this war, that the US/West is not involved. Every single article, photo or video attributes blame on Russia. Mariupol is a great example - a city that was destroyed by Ukrainian shelling of civilian areas, reported and filmed live by courageous, independent journalists as it happened. Look up those journalists on google, and they are vilified, insulted and classified as fake journalists or trolls. A deeply shameful period for Western journalism.

@oo earning -- Astonishing comment. Firstly, Freeland is an inept SJW feminist, victim monger, totally ill-equipped to run a country. Now, about your comment. Do you know the meaning of "zionist"? A zionist is someone who supports zionism. Zionism originally described the national movement for the return of the Jewish people to their homeland and the resumption of Jewish sovereignty in the Israel. As Israel has been permanently established, its meaning has changed to describe the movement for the development and protection of Israel. Disagreements in its philosophy have led to splinter zionist groups: briefly, Political Zionism: the establishment of a secure haven under public law in Israel. Religious Zionism: the fusion of Jewish nationhood, with the religion an essential part of Israel. Socialist Zionism: the quest for socialism, with Jews concentrated in one area, as essential to the Jewish Diaspora. These sub-movements are dynamic and multi-faceted, as situations in Israel, the Middle East and the world change.
So which one are you talking about? Are you suggesting that Israel should not exist? That notion is ludicrous. Israel is there to stay, whether you agree that it should have been established or not. So are you insinuating that Israel should have no international partnerships, allies or agreements? Are you suggesting that Western countries, such as the U.S. should abandon support of Israel and support the surrounding countries that promote the decimation of Israel and in many cases actively support and fund terrorism?
In my view, both Trudeau and Freeland need to be sent packing. They are both totally inept; however, credit where credit is due. Are you deriding her because she supports regime change in Venezuela? Do you have any idea what has happened in Venezuela? If you do, are you telling us you support the continuation of the thugish and socialist Maduro regime? You want people to continue in dire poverty, hunting for food in garbage cans? You think it's a good idea to allow the continuation of a rule that has totally destroyed and bankrupted a country? You might want to ponder the fact that the regime change is happening within Venezuela. Many countries, including Canada and the U.S., rightly support that change.
Yes, Canada has to watch out for Freeland -- hopefully send her packing. More to the point, judging by your statement, Canada has to watch out for voters with your highly questionable and alarming points of view.

fredo Fred - Haute couture is indeed art. You cannot look at collections -- particularly recent collections -- and not understand that they are art. How many people do you imagine have been fed by couture fashions? Fabric designers, fabric manufacturers, petroleum industry (petroleum derivative fabrics), the various designers, cutters, dressmakers, seamstresses with varying couture skills, models, hairdressers, makeup artists, makeup and skin care manufacturers, stylists, photographers, event planners, musicians (for the music), venues, media (internet, TV, magazines, newspapers), reporters, all those involved with knock-offs, distributors of the materials needed for the couture fashions. Hundreds of thousands -- millions.
Feed the hungry, you say. That statement implies taking money from some to feed others. Far better to find ways to improve the lives and productivity of the hungry.
Meanwhile, I am astounded by this woman. Totally self-absorbed, selfish sponger. Yes sponger, living off the assets of an ex-husband, contributing nothing herself. Simply selling off certain items, for less than she paid for them, when storage space becomes scarce. I am all for innovative, creative, successful business people living off the $billions they generate, but this woman is entirely different. Not even saving the pieces for museums mitigates what she does, in my view. Fashion ends up in museums, without her. The ex husband, really stupid to have paid her so much, or is it a matter of unfair justice for the ex-husband in a court of law (whatever form of law that would have taken). Perhaps, more focus on the hows and whys of the Saudi Royal Family and their advisors; and the merits or not of their wealth, not a black and white issue.

Interestingly and ironically, RT is a great place to get real news. Tons of raw, on-the-ground footage of events as they happen, with no editing or voice overlay attempting to turn opinion into news. For example: ANTIFA and BLM thugs rampaging through Democrat cities, rioting, attacking, smashing, burning, looting, while the MSM stayed quiet, then kept harping on about "peaceful demonstrations." Other examples of RT footage include the yellow-vest demonstrations in Paris; angry rioting in Lebanon after the huge, preventable explosion; corruption and difficulties in the Congo (for which one of RT's teams was massacred).
One raw video was filmed by BLM thugs, themselves. They shot David Dorn, a decent African American family man, patriot, former top law enforcement member, who was helping a friend secure his shop. They filmed their filthy deed and posted it online for all to see. David Dorn, spreadeagled on the pavement, blood gushing from his head, phone still lit up in his outstretched hand, as he tried to pull it in to call for help, as death overtook him. I wept. Those filthy murderers, all caught on CCTV as they escaped the scene. Two later arrested, but, of course, no MSM reporting of the incident or updates about the arrests.
Meanwhile, vacuous, uninformed, keep-up-with-the-Joneses corporate organizations, rush to the BLM drum, call up their photographers and website managers to post look-at-our-diversity line-ups and inclusion (often leaving white employees or models out altogether). Shame on them. Before the internet I would comb magazines for photos for fashion-and-color seminars. I used to think, if I were black or Asian, I would be outraged at the lack of representation of my group; then these hypocritical, late-to-the-party, corporate heads and managers rush to catch up under one of the most dangerous banners today, BLM, a self-prescribed Marxist organization, the head of which has publicly announced her goal to rid the world of Western history, culture and accomplishments. An organization with affiliate ties to terrorist and CCP-affiliated organizations.
Sorry for the rant, but it's long past time to expose the lemming fools.

@laura cee -- keep laughing. See how hard you laugh if the Dems win and your taxes go up, migrants live on your streets (as they are doing in Europe with open borders), crime increases and the criminals are protected in sanctuary cities, and you lose your job, because your employer can either outsource it, or import someone to do it for much less money. Perhaps, then, you will learn to assess what is important and what is not.
Oh yes, and by the way, you might want to recall the following: The darling of the liberals, Hillary Clinton, still attempting to influence politics, is a long-time enabler of serial, sexual abuse. Anyone who supports her has forever lost any credibility in protesting against real or perceived sexual abuse. She even set up war rooms, with her smear agent, Sidney Blumenthal, to strategize how to demean, and in some cases have investigated, Bill Clinton's victims, calling them "Bimbo Eruptions."
Difference between Trump and Clinton. Trump apparently had consensual affairs with these two women, who turned out to be rats. In response to tell-tale bribery, he had them sign non-disclosure agreements (before any campaign and out of his own funds -- absolutely nothing to do with campaign finance). The consideration for the promises in the agreement was the money (all agreements involve consideration to be legally binding). These greedy, unethical and nasty women broke the terms of their agreement. Usually there are legal consequences for that.. Bill Clinton, on the other hand sexually assaulted women. His record is loaded with proven, documented claims against him in that regard. He had to leave his Oxford Rhodes Scholar stint early, because he was accused of rape. MG that should have been a warning to those who voted for him. He had to pay Paula Jones over $800,000, after he assaulted her in a hotel room. He had a twelve-year, extra-marital affair with Gennifer Flowers, then publicly denied knowing her. How would you feel if you were to have a twelve-relationship with someone who then denied knowing you? And Bill Clinton's piece de resistance: a mirky liaison with a young intern. Such situations are never considered consensual because of the power gap. Any CEO who engaged in such activity would be escorted out the door, no questions asked. Bill Clinton was impeached for his lies about his tawdry office affair. On a personal note he called his victim, a very vulnerable woman, "that woman."

That young man spoke complete common sense. The answer to preventing destitute people in the future is to zero in on the causes: unemployment during life, not sufficient savings and/or investments throughout life, society's drifting away from extended families, etc. The notion that taxpayers should be responsible for the world's dispossessed is totally unethical and unsustainable. If I were in charge, say a benign dictator, faced with this problem today because of failed past leadership, I would initially charge taxpayers for respectable, although not luxurious, housing for these elderly people. The return on their part, would be roles in the management and upkeep of the housing. I would also weave in commercial enterprises for them, from which the taxpayers would be ultimately reimbursed. For the future I would legislate life planning courses in the schools, as prerequisites for graduation.

@JV-yd4qg By the way, the British Royal Family is not paid by the taxpayers. The Queen, alone, as head of state, is paid out of 25% of the profits from her own crown estate, the balance of profits going to the treasury. The British taxpayers do pay for the protection of the few royal members who receive it; however, those protection officers would be working elsewhere in the civil service, if they were not protecting the relevant royal members, so that is a moot point. Nevertheless, they are in place with their luxuries and privileges, courtesy of the British public.

@elaine1034 Actually I believe Diana left him around $26 million. May have grown considerably; however, in today's world, with their living standards and expenses and ten bathroom mansion, $47 million is not a ton of money. Having said that, I totally agree that they should pay for their own security. Not a dime from any taxpayers from any country. In my view, one of the most egregious decisions of this me-me couple has been to remove Archie (and daughter) from their rightful heritage. They will grow up in America with very unpopular parents, who likely won't get along (sooner than later), maybe divorced parents, certainly superficial, wondering where their next million will be coming from after the reality contracts have ended, when they could have been brought up in Britain with the Royal Family meeting top leaders of the world, learning culture, arts, etc., going to the best schools, and mixing with extremely well brought-up cousins.

@elaine1034 The newer generations are certainly not inbreds anymore. I used to be supportive of a constitutional monarchy. Still am in the main. It brings apolitical societal continuity (something Markle does not understand), especially in turbulent times, is an enormous contributor to charities and other good works, keeps the Commonwealth together, generates huge revenues for the UK*, and can put on national pomp and circumstance like no other nation in the world -- an organization that, when running smoothly -- and always with the Queen -- reaches for the highest common denominator. However, since Markle's appearance I am no quite such a huge supporter anymore.
*The British are very lucky. Other than for security and certain expenses of royal events, the taxpayers do not foot the bill for them. The Queen, alone, receives funding. It comes out of 25% of the profits from the Crown Estate, with the balance of profits going to the treasury (taxpayers or civil-servant pockets). Some argue that the 25% is actually funded by the public. I argue that, that is not. The Crown Estate is comprised of assets accumulated by the Royal Family centuries ago, and revenues generated from those assets. In typical British labor-esque fashion, the government took those properties from the Royal Family to manage and divy out the booty. In other words, in my view, institutional theft -- the Queen receives only a quarter of the profits from her own properties.

@bcxaz All public figures concern themselves with the themselves. It's actually a necessity to gain the exposure in today's mean and nasty world. Trump's character includes a self-congratulatory trait. The millions who support him don't mind, and I am amazed at his courage of self-deprecation that is so evident at this rallies. People love him for that. Obama was the most eloquent president of our time -- perhaps all time; however, his administration turned out to be the most corrupt in US history. So do you go for the eloquence and corruption? Or the self-congratulation and common sense? Trump is a straight-forward, transparent guy. What you see and hear is what you get. In the past, liberals have screamed for transparency, then when it comes their way, they can't handle it. He doesn't have a dishonest bone in his body, although Democrats would love you to believe he's a package of dishonesty and lies. He has the courage of steel. I doubt any other politician could have stood up to the bullying, slander, libel, epithets, plots, lies, sabotage and cancellation that he withstood - and he didn't even take a presidential salary.
By the way, HE DID WIN THE ELECTION. Leaving aside the rigging for a moment, if the mainstream, liberal media had been professional and honest, he would have won with the largest landslide ever.
I agree with you about his self congratulation, but it is the issues that count. I am conservative, but I am also an atheist. We cannot possible line up all our own wants, needs and wishes with those of our favorite politicians. The world is too complex for that. We have to pick the relevant and significant issues. Personally, I would like to see Republicans de-emphasize god and the right to life. I am not saying they should abandon those key issues of their platform, just de-emphasize them - put them in perspective if you will. I believe many liberals who are aghast at the trend to socialism and totalitarianism would vote Republican if god was not front and centre of the party. In today's world of technology, emphasis on the myths of religion over science, are counter productive.

How would this fool feel about whites moving back to Africa? The complete lack of diversity in Africa, or, say African dance or other artistic troops, is completely and conveniently left out of the diversity discourse, as they scream for diversity in all aspects of other life. All intelligent people know that diversity is about the goal to diminish whites in every aspect of their lives: Western culture, history and accomplishments; innovation, jobs; universities, etc. They would be more fair, if they gave up all their tech gadgets, cars, homes, healthcare, business models, etc. created by the Whites, so they can show the world how innovative they are by starting all over from scratch to show their abilities from hunting and gathering to trains, factories, electric cars, planes, computers, smart phones, space travel, etc.

Interesting that this low-class couple (class involves more than money), Harry and Meghan, supplicate over Beyoncé, a teen pop idol and are appreciated by children who have muddied their father's name by handing out spurious woke awards in his name. The Harkles don't have the reach for say, Thomas Sowell, Doyin Sonibare, Candace Owens, Tulsi Gabbard, Jody Williams, or Lord Rumi Verjee -- just to pick a few names off the cuff. Doubt they have even heard of a few of those names.
The best this nescient couple can come up with are Democrat activists, who are now under a cloud of deep corruption.

That's right, President Trump is not going to steal the election. He is going to win it. Rightfully, someone who is swimming in dementia, criminal activities in Ukraine, China and other countries, has been proven to have been implicated in framing General Flynn and involved in the plots against President Trump, and is leaning left to please radicals in his party, because he has no guts to create an acceptable platform, cannot and must not become president -- and that, Joe Biden, is you!

Bottom line, the vogue model's forces shouldn't have been firing any missiles. He should have negotiated with Russia and agreed to Putin's extremely reasonable demands. Instead, he sold his soul for ill-gotten riches, sided with Biden , who had not only plundered Ukraine (Burisma, tip of the iceberg), but also initiated the bloody Maidan Coup (w/ his lieutenant, Victoria Nuland) that spilled into a Ukrainian civil war & genocide against Donbass Russians.
Such incredibly poor judgement on Zelensky's part. The US doesn't care about Ukraine. It has done zero for Ukraine, leaving it plundered, bankrupt, corrupt, war torn and destroyed. How much better off Ukrainians would have been in a neutral Ukraine with friendly trade relations with Russia, and no US/NATO interference.

a. barker What on earth are you talking about? A statement devoid of facts. The Supreme Court has not been involved. Barr is AG, but he is not the prosecutor on this case. Both the prosecutor and defence have requested this case be dismissed, after concrete evidence has surfaced that the Democrats planned and went about framing him, and that General Flynn did not lie. You, my friend are not a decent person. Or should I give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you are one of the many shamefully exploited by the mainstream goebbelsian, liberal-colluding media, such as CNN, MSNBC, The Washington Post, and The New York Times. Your comment, if not a deliberate, backfired attempt of a paid troll to misinform, is an example of the incredible dangers of the loss of professional journalism and ignorant electorates. Without factually informed voters, democracy is nothing but a sham.

Prince Andrew has never been found guilty of any misbehavior with Virginia Giuffre, who was, in my view, nothing less than a prostitute and perhaps a procurer as well. Andrew settled to save the frail Queen from further stress related to the case. He settled for a relatively very small amount, most of it going to a charity and never admitted any wrong doing. Isn't a foundation of British and Australian justice, innocent until proven guilty? The case was settled for another much more pressing reason. His accuser could not produce the incriminating photo. Rumblings from people in the know were already circulating that the photo of Andrew, Giuffre, and Maxwell was photoshopped. As she could not produce it, her team knew they could never win in court. Why would she have "lost" a key piece of evidence in a case so important to her? The obvious answer is that she likely could have produced it but would not, because the photo would have been subjected to scrutiny by the defense and exposed as photoshopped and a fraud.
Interesting that this woman's case against Alan Dershowitz was dropped. He is a smart lawyer. He sued her lawyer. If Prince Andrew had been in a position to do that, perhaps his case would have been dropped too, rather than settled to make it go away for the Queen and British RF.

They knew the problems existed when they put Biden up to be the frontman for an evil marxist cabal. This summit was a zero summit. Biden had to take his cue cards into the meeting. How on earth does anything get accomplished in a meeting with one of the participants having to read off cue cards? It doesn't. It was an opportunity for members of the military to start negotiating with Russia behind the scenes, because, as the US (including Trump, which is beyond astonishing), continues to vilify Russia, it has suddenly become aware that Russia is far ahead with strategic weapons, so a more conciliatory relationship has become a necessity. Meanwhile, Biden got lost at the G7, shoveling around a restaurant patio on his own, seemingly unable to figure out where he was, until Jill Biden came and dragged him away.

The Hamas terrorist attacks on Gaza have exposed so much lack of moral clarity from certain individuals. There is no equivalency between Israel's collateral damage in Gaza and Hamas's targeted atrocities in Israel.
Those who attempt to create an equivalency are creating an equivalency between themselves and the terrorists. Just imagine the family of, say, a man, who flung himself from a top floor of one of the Twin Towers to avoid the flames, crying out for humanitarian aid for the terrorists, their families and leaders, with the US stopping all efforts against the terrorists to provide humanitarian aid and supplies to, say, the large bin Laden family and families of the hijacking terrorist bombers! Preposterous!
Of course, collateral damage is tragic, but Hamas is culpable for not providing shelters, humanitarian escape routes, essential services and emergency supplies for its people. There is no way Hamas did not know that Israel would respond to the atrocities against its civilians, with lethal vengeance. Let alone that a modus operandi of these terrorists is to exaggerate fatalities to gain international sympathy, they set themselves up in civilian buildings, using civilians as human shields (just as the Ukrainian forces have done) tossing the civilians to the bombs. Now Hamas will pocket humanitarian funds and emergency supplies.
As in WW2, first comes defeat of the tyrants and terrorists; next comes humanitarian aid for the civilians who supported the tyrants and terrorists.

@johnsmith1474 During the last two years, I have read or re-read: Dinner with Mugabe, Don't Lets Go to the Dogs Tonight, House to House, The Savage Continent, Liars Leakers and Liberals, Secret Empires, The Islamist, Heretic, The Plot Against the President, The Deep State, Witch Hunt, Clinton Cash, Dreams From My Father, Red Notice, Nemesis, The Smartest Guys in the Room (semi-geopolitical). I have actually read a whole lot more, but that's all you are getting. You picked the wrong person. My guess is that I read a whole lot more than you about geopolitics -- mostly on the internet now (not in books). I have been reading about politics/war for decades, including all Hillary Clinton's appalling sugar-coated books.
I highly recommend The Islamist and Heretic for an understanding of Islamist extremism and Witch Hunt (impeccably sourced and documented) about the vile, traitorous attempted coup against President Trump that should send chills through any decent, ethical person). All should be required reading for all politicians.
Some recommended internet sources for (mostly American and world) politics: Judicial Watch, The Duran, The White House, Lou Dobbs, Epoch Times, Congressional Hearings, any sites with the actual documents that have exposed the plot against President Trump, Wikileaks, Blaze TV, (impressive research into Ukraine/Democrat corruption), Declassified, OAN. Black Pigeon, SARA (Carter), John Solomon, Sidney Powell, Devin Nunes, Thought Leaders, The Mark Levin Show, George Webb, Katie Hopkins, Janice Fiamengo, Peter Hitchens, Michelle Malkin, Candace Owens, Diana West, Heather MacDonald, Paul Joseph Watson, Nigel Farage, Sharyl Attkisson. If you are interested in knowing what is going on in the world, as much as possible you have to go to the source (no commentary overlays with opinion or hearsay -- believe it or not, RT is great for that). Very interesting how, today, it is the conservative sites that have the documented information and reliable sources, while the liberal sites that have turned into goebbelsian garbage-pushing muck devoid of professional journalism. So controlled or biased that they missed the story and have focused for years on the false narrative.
On my list to read: The Red Thread, American Betrayal, Catch and Kill, Unfreedom of the Press, From Mohamed to Jihad, Profiles in Corruption, Licensed to Lie.

@lt8753 - Let's be realistic here. The average office Joe in Manhattan is not making an annual salary of $206,400 (except overpaid government workers perhaps) and the upper echelons of the financial industry who would not be renting that apartment. To be financially responsible, $206,400 plus is the minimum someone should be making to be living in an apartment costing $4,300 a month. Unfortunately, even with room mates these days, people are being forced to pay a far-too-large portion of their disposable income on rent.
And how does this happen? Exploitive outsourcing and insourcing of cheap labor that pushes wages and salaries down and eliminates jobs; out-of-control real-estate developers who finances their projects through packaged financial instruments, with no relationship to real-estate supply and demand, and not least, the domino effect -- landlords with greedy herd mentality. If the guy next door can rent his suites for $4,300, then I'm going to put the rent for my suites up to $5,000, on and on.

@imllendream Never watch CNN. Haven't owned a TV in about fifteen years. I do however get to see the crap and fake news on CNN, when alternative, conservative, internet sites run clips of the chilling, yet puerile, propaganda CNN and the rest of the liberal fake news media is spitting out. The loss of professional journalism is one of the worst crises we face today, along with the loss of rounded, objective educations in schools and universities, so dire and dangerous the consequences, not to mention the fake news's so vilely exploiting less sophisticated people, who do not have the wherewithal to understand the news is fake or to do their own research to find out the facts -- a significant point that is not often mentioned. Sounds as if you need to a ton of research on China.

Charles was cruel to Diana?!! You are misremembering. It was the other way around. Three in the marriage: Charles, Diana and James Hewitt. Nevertheless my support for the RF is waning. Inviting Olena Zelnska to the coronation, as Britain's economy is in dire straights over its manufactured war and sanctions against Russia, using, by invitation, Ukrainian killing fields as its battleground, as Zelenska sits for Vogue, shops in Paris, and actively works to prevent people with whom she disagrees from attending events in Europe. As her husband's goons capture Ukrainian men at gunpoint to be sent to the front to die as proxy fodder for an evil US/British war. Boris Johnson with his eye on a British MIC in Ukraine. Over 250,000 unwilling Ukrainian conscripts KIA to date, more on the front, with just days to live, as Zelenska attends the coronation. Pure evil.

I am astonished that you are not out on the street in anger right now, but you are not, because you have not taken the time to find out the actual facts about this war. You have obviously settled for corrupt Western MSM reporting that has consistently lied about this war, since Biden shuffled into the White House, claimed Putin is evil, started a vicious, hatred campaign against Putin, Russia and Russians. He was goading Russia into war, backing a massive increase of Ukrainian forces at the Donbass and Russian borders. This increase in Ukrainian forces, funded, supplied and trained by the US and other NATO countries was not reported by the MSM.

Let's talk about shenanigans, Latoya. On January 5, 2017, Obama, Biden and others held a meeting at the White House. During that meeting they plotted how to frame an innocent man, General Flynn, knowing he was innocent. Biden was particularly proactive in that meeting. How do we know about this? Unbelievably, through their own notes, subsequently released to the public.
Why did they want to frame General Flynn? As the incoming National Security Advisor, he had plans to revamp the intelligence departments and processes -- upsetting their apple cart; they wanted to get to Trump through him; they were afraid his policies would interfere with their activities in Ukraine. (Those activities in the Ukraine, including an Obama-initiated coup, known as the Maidan Coup, were behind Adam Schiff's attempt to impeach President Trump over Ukraine. They didn't want any changes in Ukraine. Many had careers tied up in Ukraine joining the EU/NATO. Many had shady business dealings around Ukraine joining the EU. Biden's son was siphoning out over $83,000 per month for himself and/or the Biden Family, as a board member of the corrupt energy company, Burisma. He had no industry experience and never even went to Ukraine. It was a pure pay-for-play position. Hence, one of the reasons for the venom dished out to Russia. They didn't want Ukraine trading with Russia versus Europe.
Biden suggested they could frame General Flynn through the Logan Act. It is an antiquated act invoked in the early days of the U.S., when chaos still roamed, to prevent people without authority dealing with foreign governments. Only two people have ever been indicted on charges of violating the Act, one in 1802 and the other in 1852. Neither was convicted. In addition, as National Security Adviser, General Flynn not only had authority, but had also kept the appropriate authorities informed about his activities.
Biden, devoid of any ethics, had the nerve to embroil himself in this vile plot by bringing up the Logan Act, as his son was skipping around the world dealing, without any authority, with foreign governments in an illegal pay-for-play scheme. Millions of dollars flowed into the Biden Family through their foreign influence peddling scheme. This highly unethical Biden activity had been documented for years (of course not mentioned by the mainstream news). Then Hunter Biden left his laptop at a repair shop, so the documents on it were leaked. Those documents prove without doubt that Biden shared in the profits of the scheme. That took the shadowy activities from highly distasteful and unethical to illegal.
But here's the kicker. Unelected Big Tech, with cooperation from the corrupt Democrat/Biden team, censored the information before the election, so that Democrats who are just uninformed but decent and ethical would not know about it before they voted. What would you call these activities and censorship, Latoya? Shenanigans? Highly distasteful but let's put the corrupt team back in power? Or outright wrong, and not worthy of power or the presidency?

Don't get me wrong, I am not defending Epstein or Ghislaine Maxwell, if guilty; however, I am going to be a devil's advocate here. There is another aspect to this saga. Recently, I watched on my phone a series of videos produced by a photographer to create awareness of a nasty underbelly of society, including pimps, procurers and underage girls, caught in their molestation nets at ages as young as 12 to 14. Legally, very little is done about these very wide networks, with some of the molested girls experiencing brutal attacks, some losing their lives, most going on to lead depraved lives. Yet here we are all aghast and holier-than-thou about the Epstein-Maxwell ring, involving girls from middle- and high-income families, who had more of a choice and kept quiet until payouts loomed large. In the photo of Prince Andrew and his accuser, she looks over the age of majority and happy. I understand she says she was 17 at the time, not 12, the age when the girls interviewed by the photographer had been first trafficked. In my mind, the Ghislaine-Maxwell saga is sordid and unacceptable, but the most significant aspect of it is the behavior of any politicians (Bill Clinton, for example) who were participating. Ghislaine's girls are leading apparently successful, middle-class lives. The trafficked prostitutes end up with very little hope of escaping their depravity. The world is full of hypocrisy and double standards.

You might want to remember the US invaded Afghanistan, not to free anyone, but in response to a war waged in the US from Afghanistan. On the contrary, they fought back in Afghanistan to capture terrorists. They did, in a significant way, free many women in Afghanistan. US regime-change policies, championed by the likes of Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Joe Biden, John Bolton, Victoria Nuland, et al - opposed by President Trump - have resulted in death and destruction in the Middle East. Their regime-change policies in Ukraine netted them stolen $billions, the Maiden Coup, Biden corruption, and Nuland interference, netting the Ukrainian people exactly zero. When President Trump attempted to investigate the corruption, they mounted a phoney impeachment against him to prevent their corruption being exposed and to safeguard their ill-gotten wealth sucked out of Ukraine.

Shocking how many women have been at the forefront of the authoritarian dictates around CoVid, without adequate evidence, and the number of women who are still at the forefront of supporting, funding, training, joining in a US manufactured war against Russia, for no acceptable reason, using Ukraine as a proxy battlefield and Ukrainian as proxy fodder for their evil intentions (MIC, FIRE, OGAM profits; tearing an innocent country apart for potential plunder and hegemony; expanding the most aggressive military force today, NATO; creating a US military base in place of Ukraine, to hell with Ukraine and the Ukrainian people; destroying Europe to hang on to the last remnant of world support and make it reliant on the US for trade and commerce). These evil intentions have resulted in the deaths of 100,000+ men (Ursula von der Leyen's figure), but we all know it is likely twice or more that number.

Add Vancouver, B.C., Canada, and Kensington in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, US, to the list of appalling, unacceptable conditions and homeless. No worries, you have a right to live homeless. We'll even pick up your needles, feed you, let you relieve yourselves on the streets, give you safe spaces to perpetuate your addiction, and, of course, free medical care. Senisible, caring governments would simply say, NO MORE. Loitering will once again be a criminal offense. You are human beings and deserve a chance at a successful life. You will no longer be allowed to choose if you want to get off the streets. You will be forced off the streets, into drug rehabilitation. As soon as your initial, detox treatment is over, you will be housed in self-sufficient facilities (such as slightly refurbished old buildings - not brand new condos), where you will contribute to their upkeep and maintenance, as you enter school and develop a strategy for a successful life.

@Sepdet9 She has been running for president all those years during which fools and the uninformed still believed that liberalism today is classical liberalism. Now that they are discovering the corrupt liberalism and the immense dangers of liberalism today (totalitarianism, socialism, globalism, equal outcomes, critical race theory, stretched genders, feminism gone mad, etc.), they are turning away from those vile principles. Turning to the common sense of conservative, nationalism (with international cooperation), self-reliant principles, promoted by Le Pen.

Good one. Bill Clinton, signed NAFTA, the beginning of America's gift to China. Its jobs, money and technology. He also proactively and aggressively promoted housing for all through sub-prime mortgages, the trigger for the crash of 2008. He married and promoted a me-me woman, who turned out to be the most corrupt politician in US history. She did it by riding on his back. She enabled his serial sexual misconduct, calling his victims "Bimbo Eruptions."
Don't worry, I supported Barack Obama, and I knew about politics, but not enough. He turned out to be the most corrupt president in US history. My saga, supporting him - in fact, I was a pest singing his praises - is all about not doing enough research and throwing integrity - loyalty to my own, innate conservative views - out the window. Not to gaslight myself completely, I first supported Barack Obama when Hillary Clinton ran against him in the Democratic Primary, bringing dirty politics and filth to new heights.
I am tired of politics, but the rumor is that Hillary Clinton is dusting off her ashes to run again, after being true to herself and throwing filth Trump's way, the likes of which we would never have believed could have happened in America. A cloud of her sedition still hovers over us, but she sees an opportunity to exchange Biden's nasty totalitarian game for her corruption. There is no rest for the weary. Albert Einstein once remarked on all the evil in the world but warned that those who do nothing about it are more evil. The evil of Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton must be stamped out.

Lindsey Graham, a fair-weather friend, who follows the crowd, without the courage to fight the evil of the crowd. President Trump had absolutely nothing to do with the invasion of the capital, now, from further investigation, on-the-ground observation and video, becoming clear that BLM led the charge, with some protesters following. The protesters did not riot, were not armed, attacked no one, damaged nothing. They simply chanted, "stop the steal," in response to a joint session of Congress meeting to ratify a stolen election. Censorship, false accusations against opponents, fraudulent elections, and usurpers grabbing power are all hallmarks of totalitarian, fascist rulers. Lindsey Graham, fighting totalitarian evil has to be total. No praise for the victim as you side with the despots. Voters returned you to Congress because of President Trump. Abandon him and side with evil, then be prepared for your voters to abandon you.

The notion of Boris Johnson, Liz Truss, Joe Biden and Emmanuel Macron pouring out praise of Gorbachev for bringing the Cold War to an end, as they side with Ukraine's genocide against Donbass Russians and hatred of Russians, Ukraine nazism and Ukraine's deeply corrupt puppet dictator, is frankly abhorrent.
Liz Truss: "More than anything this legacy of cooperation and peace must prevail." Monstrous hypocrite who proudly announced she would not hesitate to unleash an atomic bomb on Russia, after having urged young British men to head to Ukraine to join Ukrainian men to be slaughtered on the frontline of her vile war against Russia, knowing that if they did not perish on the frontlines, they would receive the death penalty if caught.
This woman, Liz Truss's abominable threats and war-mongering was one of the triggers for Russia's SMO. Lavrov was disgusted by her chilling, threatening behavior. Before she met Lavrov BEFORE the SMO, she threatened to wipe Russia off the map. Her exact words: Britain would "hit targets including those who are key to the Kremlin's continuation of the Russian Regime."

@jidf32 The media can do all the calling it wants -- and with a corrupt anti-Trump media, we could have predicted how that would go, but the MEDIA DOES NOT call the presidency. The electoral college does that. There were not the obvious fraudulent irregularities during the 2016 election. Hillary Clinton was so sure she was going to win in 2016, there was no need to rig the election. The massive 2020 voting fraud had started to be exposed before the election -- not hearsay, assumptions or suspicions, but real live evidence. Ilhan Omar won this election by about 65% of the vote. What was done by the massive voting fraud in which her campaign was implicit -- paying voting harvesters to harvest and pay for ballots of old people to fill those ballots out for Omar! Just one example of massive pre-election voting fraud.
Why do I focus in on Hillary Clinton? In 2016 she was the first to start spreading the false accusations about Trump colluding w/ Russia. At the time, we put it down to her relationship with smear politics, but the false accusations spread and engulfed the country for 3-1/2 years (some still stick to the lies), with the corrupt media leading the way. Lo and behold, when the evidence started trickling out, we discover it was Hillary Clinton who dreamt up and initiated the conspiracy and funded the false dossier used as a backup for their attempted coup. Hillary Clinton's hubris demanded she be the first to hint about a plot she, herself, concocted.
A little while ago, when the danger of mail-in ballots was being discussed, Hillary Clinton was the first to demand that Joe Biden not concede on election night - not until "all the votes were counted," versus (not until "all the legal votes were counted.") Then and there, remembering her being first to hint to the world about her Russia plot, I thought something is up here. How did she have such prescience about the chaos that has happened over legal versus illegal votes. Nancy Pelosi's and her relationship to the company owning the tech application that spewed Trump votes in Biden's count raises my suspicions even more. I believe, whether squatter Biden or President Trump ends up in the WH, there should be a thorough investigation into that company, Hillary Clinton and Nancy Pelosi.

On this one, I am going to be a devil's advocate. Some (not me) would argue that Christine Blasey Ford was intelligent and fluid. I don't condone Prince Andrew's lack of judgement, but let's razor down on his relationship with Epstein. A fun place to stay with parties and girls? How old was the girl who alleges to have had sex with him? A minor or adult? Did the prince actually know how she had been procured? Or is she another Christine Blasey Ford? Epstein was a physics enthusiast. He held physics seminars/events on his property. There are pictures of Stephen Hawking at one of the events. Should the deceased Hawking now be blasted and demeaned for having been there? As for the Clintons, who knows what Bill Clinton, a man with a reputation for sexual deviancy, was up to on those 27 flights on the Lolita Express; but Hillary and Bill frolicking at the same indoor pool party, including questionable antics? Really? Doesn't fit. Not Bill and Hillary together at a sexualized party. It is well documented that they actually live quite separate lives -- Hillary in Chappaqua, New York, Bill at the top of his library in Arkansas. So they had holidays at an Epstein ranch -- he had lots of money to donate to the Clintons, so why not a stay at his ranch. Having said that, the Clintons, much more than the prince, would have known what Epstein was all about. The prince foolishly continued his relationship with Epstein after he was convicted, but that plea deal greatly minimized the seriousness of his activities. In full disclosure, I detest the Clintons; and recently (after Harry's and Meghan's politically charged activities), my support for the British Royal Family is turning cold.

Actually, there is a different take on the FakeMedia. Living with family members, who damn me for my conservative views, I have discovered a few unsettling things: (1) The shameful mainstream Fake News is actually exploiting for its own purposes, those who, for whatever reasons, don't have the wherewithal to do their own research. That makes the fake news doubly despicable. (2) Most of the irrational Trump haters have no idea about his platform, goals or successes. They are not reported on the mainstream Fake News. They also have no idea about the Hillary Clinton/liberal platform, goals and failures. I discovered this by engaging liberals in conversation to find out why anyone, particularly women, would support probably the most corrupt politician in U.S. history (Hillary Clinton) and an enabler of serial sexual abuse (Hillary Clinton's enabling of her husbands sexual inappropriate sexual behavior and assaults). Meanwhile, I have been told by my family that they can't risk having their friends over, if I am around, even though discussion of politics is banned. When political conversation is banned, so much else is banned as well, because so much today is tied to or related to politics. Of course, if my family and their friends are incapable of entering a reasonable debate on politics, that is their issue, not mine; but that doesn't change the mindset.

I think Trump is blaming Zelensky/Ukraine, when actually it was Biden/US/West/NATO that started and funded this war, willingly handing out $billions for Western-funded death and destruction. Russia's SMO was in response, the last trigger coming from Liz Truss. I believe it is a tactic to negate US culpability. If that works to end the war, that's good, and likely a strategy to gain major US support. Ukraine's civil war against Russian-Ukrainians that spilled out of the US Maidan Coup, was, of course, a huge part of it and the reason for Russia's SMO, as well as US/NATO/West settling into Ukraine as illegal aliens, initiating acts of war against Russia.

@TolkienBird8 She was an extremely troubled woman and most certainly trashed her sons' family, and hypocritically demeaned her estranged husband for having three in the marriage, when it was in fact she who had engaged in a five-year extra-marital affair with Captain Hewitt. If you think what she did in that interview is just fine (if you indeed even watched it), then it is an example of some of what is going so wrong in society today: that it is perfectly acceptable to air one's dirty laundry and trash others in public, even when children are involved; that it is just fine to support appalling behavior for whatever reason (bias or lack of information). Diana had been on a mission to destroy her husband, starting with the tell-all book and climaxing in her viciousness in that interview. It ended there, as the Queen, after seeing that interview, demanded that they get divorced. She continued acting in a very troubled way -- her next scandal, stalking the art dealer, but at least she no longer publicly trashed her in-laws - just made some very bad choices, ending in her death.

Jeff Sessions might be an excellent solicitor, a good senator, and a decent man,* but he was a total failure as a leader and great harm was done as a result. *Unlike Clinton and Bolton, Jeff Sessions shows himself as decent and professional in his tweets. Always respectful of, and fair about, President Trump. To use a favorite expression of HR departments, when they don't want to tell someone why he/she is being fired, Sessions was not a fit; however, in his case it was an accurate reason, he was not a fit as a leader.

By your name, Barbara, I am guessing you are British. Britain played a huge role in the start of this phase of the war in Ukraine. (The war has actually been going on since 2014). Since 2014, Putin and Lavrov relentlessly and consistently called for diplomacy to end the Ukrainian genocide against Donbass Russians (by 2021 over 14,000 Russian men, women, children had perished in that genocide), and to end US/NATO aggression at Russia's border.
BEFORE the SMO Joe Biden started demonizing Putin and Russia. He would bizarrely state that Russia would invade Ukraine by a specific date. When no invasion occurred, he would move the date forward. So strange, a man riddled with dementia, being so prescient! What was going on? - Back to that later.
Britain oozed itself into the frey. BEFORE Russia's SMO, Liz Truss, Foreign Secretary of Britain at the time, publicly screeched on British TV that Britain would target anyone in the Kremlin who had anything to do with the CONTINUATION of Russia. A reckless, dangerous declaration of war and intention to wipe Russia off the map! Very stupidly (or maybe by design in view of his warmongering) Boris Johnson subsequently sent her to Moscow to meet with Sergey Lavrov, the world renowned and respected Russian Foreign Minister, featured here. Her abominable, threatening, behavior, devoid of diplomacy, discretion and knowledge of the relevant geography, disgusted him. It all played out on the internet. Her declaration of war, her abominable behavior in Moscow, the post-meeting press briefing, and Sergey Lavrov's disgust. Still on the internet for you to find.
I believe this ignorant British woman's threats and behavior were a trigger. Within two days Putin recognized, Donetsk and Luhansk in the Donbass as independent states. They asked Russia for help to end the genocide against them.
In the meantime, what was going on with Joe Biden. Turned out, his threats against Putin were part of his goading Russia to invade. Unbeknown to the West, as it was not reported in the Western MSM, Biden was backing a massive Ukrainian military increase at the Donbass border, close to Russia's border.

It appears that since this commentary was posted, the IG has released a news release, advising that the form filled out by the "whistleblower" (more accurately, lets call him a "traitorblower") was inaccurate, that in actual fact the law, which supersedes any form has always been that normal-course whistleblowers do not need to have direct evidence. He/she can post complaints based on hearsay. The significant takeaways from this news release are the following: (1) If that is true, the notion that anyone can make such incredibly serious claims against another person based on hearsay is appalling and horrifying. That regulation/law needs to be amended immediately to disallow hearsay. (2) When did the law that allows hearsay come into being? (3) Whistleblower laws for normal-course complaints reinforce a toxic process of people telling on others. It can be argued that there is a need for whistleblower laws, but the process should be simplified, its surrounding bureaucracy diminished, and new processes and attitudes initiated to prevent the need for whistleblowers. (4) The president's phone calls should be private and entirely secure, with no-one listening in, with laws for imprisonment for anyone caught and found guilty of listening in.

@bobstevenson3130 As the police were told, Gabby was having an anger tantrum, going for Brian. He defended himself and locked her out of the van and told her to go for a walk to cool down. That is what the witnesses told the cops. (Not sure if he actually locked her out or attempted to lock her out. Neither one wanted the other to be charged and they told the cops there was no need to seperate them; however, by law the cops were obliged to arrest her and separate them, as she was the aggressor.
Well, it has ended very badly for Gabby -- mortally in fact, after the separation. You can believe what you want, but there is no proof and never will be any proof that it would have ended badly for her at that time. That is pure supposition on our part -- something that is not allowed in court cases. So far we do not know if Brian killed or foolishly left her. We simply do not know the circumstances, so should not speculate. Hearsay, speculation, assumptions, sometimes even lies posted on the internet as if they were fact is an aspect of what is going so wrong today.

No one but Hillary Clinton cost her the presidency. She is the most corrupt politician in US history. It is she who has been behind much of the Clinton corruption. As far as Bill Clinton's sexual misbehavior, she was an enabler. You mentioned the phrase "bimbo eruptions." That is the term Hillary Clinton used to describe Bill Clinton's victims.
As Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton had direct responsibility in escalating chaos, civil war, death and destruction in the Middle East, resulting in the most serious crisis (the migrant influx) in Europe since WW2.
Hillary Clinton then went on to start the most shameful political scandal in US history. She manufactured the false narrative that Trump was colluding with Russia and funded a false dossier to back up her lies. Both her initiation of that lie and her funding the dossier are fully documented. That false narrative was taken up by a corrupt media. it was expanded exponentially by seditious forces in Obama's leftover FBI, DOJ, DOS, CIA etc. It created destruction and division in the US that might never be healed, as the country witnesses creeping totalitarian fascism under the Biden Regime.
On the economic front Bill Clinton initiated NAFTA, the highly destructive trade deal that sent American jobs, manufacturing and $billions offshore to China. He also proudly and proactively promoted housing for the poor through subprime mortgages, a central cause for the financial and economic crash of 2008.

@mrob611 Your telephone company and your internet provider are private companies (at least private in your sense - public companies in the private sector). Can you imagine if your phone company cut off your phone, because the executives did not like what you were talking about to your friends. So, sorry, your argument doesn't fly. In what hole have you been hiding? President Trump is massively popular, both in the U.S. and in the world. Do you know how many people attended his first rally after the Mueller report? 69,000. See [Trump'] for what he is? Instead of just slinging unsubstantiated, nasty innuendos, perhaps you could enlighten us and explain, with evidence and cited sources, just what he is. Your insinuation is absurd for the following reasons, among many:
He has delivered the best economy, with the best job statistics for all groups in the U.S. ever. That is directly attributable to his pro-business platform large tax cut, his elimination of unnecessary regulations and bureaucracies, and ending very bad trade agreements that work to the detriment of the U.S.
He has been instrumental, with Russia, in eliminating ISIS from its swathes of stolen land in Syria.
Do you have any idea why some CEO's don't support him? Unless, you agree with some getting extremely rich on the backs of cheap labor, you couldn't possible disagree with his major initiative to end outsourcing and exploitive insourcing for cheap labor. Outsourcing and insourcing have a major downward push on wages and eliminate jobs. Many CEO's who lack leadership skills and innovation, want those kinds of profits to increase.
How about the borders. If you are a globalist, then you would not agree with him on his immigration policies. So you think it is a good idea to have open borders to allow any illegals into a country, most of whom do not speak the language, have no education, no financial means and no work skills. It is not the job of U.S. taxpayers to support the dispossessed of the world. You must have taken math at sometime in your life. What on earth do you think will happen to a country that continues to have high, net annual immigration. The country will be economically and societally destroyed?
That leads us to sanctuary cities, something Trump is adamantly against. So you think it is just great to ruin cities with unemployed illegals, criminal illegals, allowing them to run free in sanctuary cities. What on earth would your children think about that? Have you even watched the documentaries on the state of San Francisco, LA, Portland and Seattle -- sanctuary cities. If that's what you want for a country, then heaven help you.
Right now there is a huge trend to the right all over the world. Why? They do not want globalism and all the destruction it entails. Also, the left ha been overtaken by demands of socialism from young people who were never taught history and don't remember the bread lines in the USSR, let alone know about the Gulag. Europe has been ruined with migrants, many now living in no-go zones, whom the people never wanted. People in the streets of France, Canada and the UK are calling for Trump.
Do you understand economics? Have you any idea about the negative consequences of long running trade deficits that President Trump is trying to turn around to negotiate fair trade deals?
I have yet to meet someone who spouts irrational hatred for President Trump who knows anything about his platform, his policies, the reasons for them and the results. That is a shocking state of affairs. Why do they hate Trump yet have no idea about his platform? Because they glean their news from the mainstream liberal media, that spews 24/7 hatred against him, because they decided to get in bed with the devil -- the Democrats and the coup mongers among them. They spewed absolute lies about Russian/Trump collusion for more than two years. Luckily the tide has turned, and you can guaranty they are lawyering up. The sentences for treason are long. The media agreements to collude as a political arm of the Democrats was unearthed in their own emails. The loss of professional journalism is one of the most serious crises we face today. The tragedy about it is that the media is exploiting less informed people, such as you. They have no idea that Trump's policies so closely align with their wishes, wants and needs.

I am not a fan of Seymour Hersh; however, on the Nord Stream explosion, I believe his reporting. Planned and orchestrated by Biden, Blinken, Sullivan and Nuland (CIA too - would be no surprise), using US government cut-outs to create plausible deniability. Both Biden and Nuland hinted at this outcome before it happened. Seymour Hersh has built significant contacts over his decades of reporting. Der Spiegel, a German publication, would report that Zaluzany was responsible in an attempt to cloud the German embarrassment over its ally, the US, having cut Germany at the knees. The main cutouts were apparently US divers, and likely the Norwegian government and navy. Could Ukrainian cut-outs have been in the mix? Could be!

@fainitesbarley2245 Whatever the jurisdiction or differences, they are all British courts. A court in, say, Montreal, with huge differences from a court in, say, Ontario, is nevertheless a Canadian court in general terms in the context of courts in a country. Nevertheless, from the point of view of Canada as an example, if speaking specifically, there are Canadian federal courts, and various Canadian provincial courts.

@Mimi Mc -- Too much Russia for you? There is not one ounce of evidence of any Russian collusion on the part of Donald Trump.
Russians interfering with the election? Hillary Clinton bought and paid for a phoney Russian dossier, filled with false information about President Trump. She paid over $12 million dollars for it. It was used to illegally obtain a warrant to spy on Donald Trump and his team. This is not hearsay or speculation. It is backed up by actual evidence.
"Flynn a foreign agent"? What on earth are you talking about? Flynn was paid for several speeches to Russian organizations in 2015, long before he was even involved on President Trump's team. Fees were around $11,000 and one for approximately $30,000, I believe. He was retired and free to make those speeches. We were not at war with Russia. The USSR collapsed ages ago.
The Russians paid Bill Clinton $500,000 for a speech. Can you imagine? What speech is worth $500,000. The difference is that his speech was a pay-for-play. They paid him such an outrageous amount, because the Russians had a goal to purchase precious U.S. uranium supplies, and his wife, as Secretary of State, was in a position to enable that. But that wasn't the half of it. The Russians and associated individuals through various corrupt back doors paid the Clinton Foundation $145 million, and voila, Hillary Clinton approved the sale of 20% of America's precious uranium supplies to Russia.
Jared Kushner was wrongly accused of setting up a back channel with Russia. He never did any such thing. I suggest you start going further than the mainstream media for your information. It is so dangerous when people get twisted or half news and don't have the wherewithal to find out the facts. Your comment is an example of just that.

Weaponization of the DOJ is a right- wing issue? Unless I have misinterpreted what she said, I would ask what rock this lawyer has been hiding under, were it not obvious that she and her husband have been totally focused on proving his innocence, missing the massive, political weaponization of Obama's/Biden's DOJ against political opponents and oordinary people caught up in the Democrats' lawfare to damage those in the way of their political agenda.
My heart goes out to this family. What a nightmare! Thank goodness they have prevailed, albeit, after such incredible disruption, loss of earnings and assets, stress, and outlay of millions of dollars.
President Trump, caught up in the Biden's corrupt DOJ's net, knows, tenfold, their fear, anger, uncertainty, expense, and horror of being wrongly accused.

Whatever the amount, the US GAVE it to Zelensky with circular money paths back to US accounts. It was not handed out in loans (that would never have been repaid anyway). Biden handed it over willingly on behalf of the US, many Republican neocons on board. The US leaders invited the green goblin into the Congress for applause, praise and idolization; as officials and millions of Americans tagged their names with the Ukrainian flag; fired Russians from their jobs and vilified them.
Trump, unfortunately, inherited this mess; however, his proposed one-sided deal angles away from his calls for fair dealing with foreign countries. His refusal to admit the US's role in starting this war and funding the death and destruction, plays into US unipolarism, a non-starter in today's world. Any Western CEO would be remiss in his fiduciary duty, if he agreed to develop mineral deposits in Ukraine for the profits to be put into a US government fund.
Peace through Strength in this case should not be misguided strength, but the courage to walk away, cognizant of the US's role in the death and destruction of Ukraine; and negotiate on the basis of Putin's terms that are not disadvantageous to the US.
The families of over 500,000 unwilling Ukrainian conscripts - sent to the front at SBU gunpoint - are more deserving of the profits from Ukrainian mineral deposits than Americans who did not demonstrate against the war, but then voted to END it; not get mired down in attempting to recoup sunk costs.

I'm afraid Biden is beyond understanding, and there is no way his cabal of puppeteers want peace with Russia. That would get in the way of their corruption in Ukraine. Also Putin's principles are diametrically opposed to Putin's: Putin for the Russian people; nationalist, freedom of speech, anti-socialism, protects his country from migrants, extremely smart, on top of what is going on in his country and the world, strong and measured, versant in economics and finance. Biden: destroying the American middle class, internationalist and globalist, supports censorship, paving his puppeteers' socialist lemming path, alway dumb, now vacant with dementia, hasn't a clue what is going on around him, let alone in America and the world, doesn't have a clue about economics and finance. "Hey Uncle Joe has just created $6 trillion Biden Dollars for you. You won't have to go to work anymore. We will look after you more and more. More Biden Dollars on their way. What's that you said? Someone has to pay the interest? Someone has to pay those dollars back. Come on man!"

Totally. He's objective. Doesn't personalize issues. Albeit, he's astounded by being one of the individuals who have been censored. Just imagine, some insular nerd, such as Dorsey, or Zuckerberg or even a doctor who is an administrator, not a clinician or researcher, such as Fauci, shutting down the inventor of the mRNA technology. That, alone, is enough to never trust these politicians, involved civil servants or government organizations.

@michaelmason2227 Such a myth that Trump does best with uneducated voters. The most informed voters with whom I have spoken during the Trump election and administration have been, without reservation, Republicans/conservatives. In fact it's a subject that has fascinated me for a long time. I got involved with politics in a big way for one reason: Hillary Clinton. To make sure this highly corrupt woman never became president. I have followed her for a very long time -- prior to Arkansas, when a democrat fired her. In his words, "“She was a liar. She was an unethical, dishonest lawyer. She conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the committee and the rules of confidentiality.” What was the icing on the cake? She stole exculpatory evidence and hid it in her house so the other side would not see it. Particularly, as she was practicing law, that should have been the end of any public office for her. I was always astounded that women in particular would support this woman (she has been a long-time enabler of serial sexual abuse), so I made a point of asking questions. I discovered they knew absolutely nothing about her record or her platform. They supported her because she was a woman. After Trump was elected, and the women marched the next day, I hit their trails to ask questions. I discovered they knew absolutely nothing about Trump's business life (other than The Apprentice), but more importantly, knew nothing about his platform and goals. They simply spewed HRC/CNN et al totally unsubstantiated lies and absurdities of racist and fascist. I also discovered they knew absolutely nothing about Clinton. Today, I live with die-hard left-wing democrats/liberals. They glean their news from the likes of CNN. They don't have a clue about the political scene today -- about the attempted coup, but they loathe Trump with a passion. When I ask for specifics they cannot supply them. They vote. It's not just anti-Trump propaganda that they have soaked up from exploitive fake media, but it is also their total lack of understanding of economics, finance and business.
When democrats advocate socialism, massive government, equality of outcome, identity politics, open borders, continuous high net annual legal and illegal immigration, sanctuary cities with services courtesy of taxpayers, affirmative action and racism in place of meritocracy, that is highly ignorant. Many who think of themselves as mainstream liberals have no idea that politics have turned upside down. Liberalism is no longer classical liberalism, Except of huge government, the principals of equal opportunity, equal rights, anti-racism, striving for the best etc. is solely on the conservative side. Why do you think so many CEO's of large organizations don't support Trump? Because he is adamantly against exploitive outsourcing and insourcing of cheap labor. These CEO's want to maintain the status quo at any cost to fill their money pockets on the backs of cheap labor. The Trump Republican Party is the party of the people: the best possible economic conditions, the most freedom without interference from the government, low taxes, etc. That is why he is so popular. He relates to them. The tragedy is that they have no idea his platform and policies so closely correlate with their desires, wants and needs. They are so consumed with hatred, they end up supporting the party that couldn't care less about their desires, wants and needs, a party consumed with overpopulating the country and taxing them to the hilt to keep themselves in power.

Sukan So you think the following is bad:
The best economy in the U.S. for all ethnic groups EVER, directly as a result of Trump's pro-business policies, tax cuts, negotiating skills, vehement distaste for the exploitive outsourcing/insourcing of cheap labor to fill the pockets of greedy executives, that keep wages low and destroy jobs is bad.
Trump, the first president ever to make any headway with a North Korean leader and bring home American prisoners from that country without any payment or quid pro quo is bad.
The excellent relationship Trump has with the PM of Japan, resulting in a great bilateral trade agreement is bad.
The excellent relationship Trump has with Zelensky, despite Zelensky's pro-Russia position, is bad. That relationship is paramount for ending corruption in Ukraine and any corruption that has taken place between the Obama Administration and corrupt Ukraine officials. Did you know that the Obama Administration was squarely behind overthrowing a duly elected Ukrainian president, and inserting its (Victoria Nuland's) choices for high government positions in Ukraine.
Negotiations to end the continuous high trade deficit with China, stop that country's theft of American technology and end its currency manipulation practices to gain in trade at the expense of America are bad. Continuous high trade deficits are extremely bad for a country. They lower wages, eliminate jobs. China's currency manipulation is extremely bad for Americans, American jobs, and the American economy.
You think the following is good.
An attempted Democrat coup (now overwhelmingly proven) again President Trump and the Government of the U.S. is a great thing in a democratic republic. Every decent, ethical person -- republican, democrat, independent, apolitical, religious, atheist -- should be outraged by what has happened. The Democrat who has the guts to do the right thing and thoroughly condemn this attempted coup and the harassment against President Trump and his supporters, insist that those culpable be charged, tried and sent to prison, and that the party clean itself up and return to classical liberalism, will have a chance of being president in 2024, but only if he/she grows some ethics and does that NOW.
A press that disgustingly exploits people like you by twisting facts, ignoring facts that don't fit its agenda, not challenging outrageous comments and lies from contributors, presenting opinion as news, relentlessly criticizes a president, despite his many really significant accomplishments
Sanctuary cities where criminals and illegal migrants are protected and where drug addicts and pushers leave their vile needles and human waste on the streets is a great thing.
Open borders for one-way illegal migration to flow into the country is a great thing. Do you have any idea what such continuous numbers of illegals, most without the background to contribute to U.S. society, will do to the U.S.? It will corrupt the country and taxpayers. Is that what you want for your family.
I could go on and on, but my guess is that you not only don't know the facts about these issue, but also that you have never heard of many of the issues. Go do some homework, start following reputable news sites, and make damn sure you know what you are supporting and the effect it will most surely have on you and your family. And when you are pondering these facts, think about how you would handle relentless and false criticisms against you, slander against you, name calling against you, attacks on your family, all relentless and vile. You wouldn't like it, would you? In fact you wouldn't be able to handle it.

@Michael McKinley -- I guess power comes into it, because as one moves up the ladder, he/she gains in power. I don't think it has always been about power. I think it was once a genuine effort for women to have equal rights and opportunities. When I started in business, the women had to call the men by Mr. X; the men called the women by their first names. Women fetched and poured coffee (didn't wash the dishes which they do today -- a leftover from that pink ghetto -- there were no kitchens in most offices in those early days), took their boss's shirts to the dry cleaners, bought gifts for their wives, along with many other menial chores the men preferred not to do. There were no women in executive suites, except behind clunky typewriters. It was impossible for women to move up the corporate ladder. Women were not in the normal course accepted into many medical schools -- on and on. So, yes, I was hounded and demeaned for being part of the original "women's liberation movement." Today, I am appalled at the calls of women and races for equal outcomes (vs. equal opportunities), affirmative action without merit, the quest to destroy Western society, censorship of common sense; mitigation or support of an attempted coup in one of the world's most famous democratic republics, etc. I weep for the future, unless a dramatic change takes place soon. Thank goodness for President Trump who has alerted the world to the dangers.

1/ It is really important in life to be realistic and practical. Become informed about his war. You will not become informed, watching the mainstream news. Not only did Russia have very good reason to invade -- to stop eight-years of Ukrainian Azov genocide against Donbass Russians - over 18,000 Russian men, women and children killed to date, but it is also winning this war. There will be no victory for Ukraine or these guys. If you really do care about Ukraine, start exposing the corrupt, nazified oligarchs who are running Ukraine, including corrupt US oligarchs. Start persuading these men to stop being kill-fodder for Biden's evil war against Russia, using Ukrainian men as his proxy fighters, without a second thought about their wellbeing and lives.
The US has been in Ukraine causing trouble for 8 years, since its bloody Maidan Coup, 3 years of which Zelensky has been president (proxy president - he is handled by Ilhor Kolomoisky, who bled Ukraine dry, including stealing all the depositors money from his own bank). They have done nothing for Ukraine, a deeply corrupt and bankrupt country, relying on foreign aid, much of it siphoned out into US bank accounts.

Chrystia Freeland has no background in finance, economics, or banking, She was a pure DEI appointment as Trudeau's finance minister. In my view, he wanted her out, because Mark Carney was knocking at the door. Beware Canada, Mark Carney, who will likely win the Liberal leadership, is a far-left operative dressed in bankers' suits. Meanwhile, Chrystia Freeland's background is Ukraine, parceling Canadian tax funds to lick US boots for more and more death and destruction in Ukraine to destroy Russia.

@Adam T - Mueller cannot subpoena the president. Now, I suggest you tell us exactly what President Trump has done to warrant a special counsel to investigate him. Don't answer something like, "he colluded with the Russians." That is no answer; that is mainstream-media parrot speak. Tell us specifically with details and evidence, what he has done. Then we will debate you. The special counsel is illegal. To create a special counsel there must be evidence of a crime. No crime has been committed. It was created, by a team of civil-servant democrats planning a coup, on the basis of a phoney dossier, filled with ridiculous lies about Trump, bought and paid for by no other than Hillary Clinton for over $12 million, through the DNC that she owned and controlled, and laundered through a highly unethical law firm. It was concocted by a discredited, former foreign spy, apparently from unnamed, unverified Russian sources, with a strong suggestion that her own smear agents had input into the false narratives. This false dossier was then used illegally to subversively obtain warrants to spy on Donald Trump and his team. Talk about interference with an election and ill-legality!
You want to talk about law and order? Let's do that.
A democrat fired Hillary Clinton from one of her first stints as a lawyer on the Watergate Commission. He fired her for, in his words, being "an unethical, dishonest lawyer and a liar." As she was practicing law at the time, that should have been the end of any public career for her, yet people who don't care about decency and ethics thought she was suitable to be president. What had she done? During discovery, when it came time for opposing lawyers to exchange information, she stole relevant information and hid it in her house, so the other side would not see it. She went on to be true to that democrat's description of her. Her political career is full of documented scandals and wrong-doings, culminating in a private server over which highly classified material was sent (felony), lying to congress about her server, emails and Benghazi (felonies), and tampering with and destroying subpoenaed evidence (felony). She then went on to accuse Donald Trump of Russian collusion, when it was she, who was at the centre of an attempted coup, involving participation from hazy, unsourced Russians (felony and in my view treason).
How about immigration and sanctuary cities? Do you, so intent on law and order, agree with releasing illegals and criminal illegals into the community with impunity? Do you have children? Have you seen and read about the state of California today, particularly San Francisco? Is that what you want for yourself and your children? For altruists, open borders sounds fine and lovely; however, for open borders to work, the flows must be both ways; otherwise the destination countries will be economically choked off, and the former countries will die in mediocrity and chaos. If countries involved in open immigration are not on a par economically and socially (which is the case today), then the flows will always be towards the better-off countries, ultimately imploding them financially, economically and socially. Is that what you want? Do you respect the kind of "law and order" that allows that to happen?
As for front-end law and order, I suggest you start watching police videos of traffic stops and arrests. Not bystanders' videos that may be cut, but the police videos that are not edited. The internet is full of them. They quickly reveal the antics of the left to demean and even falsely accuse police. The antics are, frankly, shocking and disgraceful.
If you have any decency in you and care about ethics, then have the courage to face what is happening on the left, condemn it, and insist that things change; otherwise, if this extreme left movement wins, we will see Venezuela looming in the U.S.A., and we will have all those who chose to ignore the reality to thank for that.

NAZI Party: National SOCIALIST German Workers' Party. A Nazi was a member of the National Socialist German Workers' Party, They believed in capitalism with government interference into that capitalism.
Some similarities between 2020 Democrats and Hitler's 1930 Germany: Censorship and silencing of opponents. Approved news only. Attacking, arresting, indicting and imprisoning opponents on false charges. Silencing and attacking opponents on campuses. Propaganda instead of news. Collusion between big business and government. Government intrusion into business. Riots including attacking, killing, destroying, smashing, blocking, looting, and occupying with praise and encouragement from government officials (Nancy Pelosi & associates kneeling in appropriated colors in honor of BLM). racist divisions, such as the Critical Race Theory of Democrats today. Regime changes in foreign countries and world expansion. Indoctrination of school children.

@adrianna donato - I urge you to expand your understanding of the hijab. I can assure you that most Islamic women are at threat of denunciation, community anger, ostracism and even death, if they do not wear their hijabs. It is a cultural thing perpetuated by men as a symbol of religion, as the men conveniently leave themselves out of the antiquated and sexist expectation.
That is always the comeback: It is their choice. Interesting how no non-Muslims choose such medieval head coverings. They are so indoctrinated into this abhorrent custom, that not wearing hijabs produces discomfort and alienation in their communities. Rather than be subjected to such risk, they "choose" to wear them.
Before the advent of acid attacks, I would ask couples about it. When I saw a man, dressed in the latest trends, sunglasses tucked into his designer T-shirt, walking with a woman, either in hijab, or covered from head to toe -- often on sweltering hot days -- I would ask the man why his woman was dressed like that. The reply was always that they must because god demands it. Quite the sexist god, demanding that only half of his flock so demean themselves.
The day I see men walking down the street in hijabs will be the day I will consider reviewing my distaste of this vile custom. More vile, in my opinion, when I see young children wearing them -- most certainly not their choice.
Unfortunately, with the spread of Islamist movements, the hijab has become a political statement. Politically motivated women choose to wear the hijab in support of these anti-Western movements that advocate the ouster of kafirs and the establishment of caliphates, where non-Muslims will not be welcomed -- treated like second class citizens, if they survive. The only difference among the various Islamist factions is how to reach their caliphate goals: using democracy to obtain leadership, political and high government positions, then dismantling democracy; or by outright destabilization of countries through terror and war. So many of these movements operate in Western countries, while they hypocritically enjoy the Western benefits that they are so intent on tearing down.
It is important that all people understand the origins, distortions and dangers of such antiquated customs and religions. It is more important that people, especially women, call them for what they are. Unfortunately, that will take longer. On that note, time for a shout out of support for the few Muslim women who have that courage at great risk to their lives. I urge you to find out about them and read what they have to say.

@Angela Siegfried. Judging by your YT home page, you are someone who appreciates nature and relaxation -- or maybe is in dire need of both. So, it's extremely strange that someone who appreciates or needs those aspects of life, without a hint of empathy, would turn around and suggest that innocent until proven guilty only applies in a court of law. Stop for a moment and consider what you are saying: By extrapolation, if you apply for a job that someone who dislikes you doesn't want you to get, it would be just fine for that person to simply accuse you of some heinous crime, say sexual assault, or even just theft, without any evidence whatsoever. Their accusation would make you guilty, because you are not in a court of law, so the sacrosanct principles of the requirement for evidence and presumption of innocence until proven guilty would not apply. It would be just fine for the executives of that company to side with your accuser, publicly interview you, condemn you for something you did not do, add other "crimes and misdemeanors," such as your having a few drinks years ago, and not only decline to hire you, but also make sure you are found guilty by the wider "court" of public opinion, in essence destroying your life. The way the presumption of innocence works is that an accused person is presumed innocent, unless they are eventually proved guilty in a court of law. The presumption of innocence precedes the court case.
Now about this "job interview." The job of the Senate is to "advise and consent." Brett Kavanaugh has already been appointed to the Supreme Court by the president. The job of the Senate is to advise and consent on that appointment, both of which should be done with reason and intelligence and based on his work and accomplishments. It is not an interview and most certainly not a public interview. The notion of the low-information types whose astonishingly ignorant comments I have been reading would be interviewing a top legal scholar is absurd to put it mildly. Consent must be based on fact and evidence; nothing less. In fact, I put it to you that from now on, the advise and consent sessions should be held behind closed doors.
I suggest you use your intelligence and seek further information; actually listen to Brett Kavanaugh's and Dr. Ford's testimonies, with reason and intelligence, to figure out whether he lied, whether she lied (now confirmed that she apparently did) or whether highly politically active "journalists" and politicians are attempting to plant false information. Ms. Ford cannot remember when or where the incident happened, how she got there or got home. She said nothing for over thirty years, but, as a known anti-Trumper, coincidentally chose this opportune time to make her accusations. She edited notes to fit her accusations. She lied about a fear of flying. We now know that she lied under oath about ever helping someone over a polygraph. All the witnesses she named have adamantly refuted her claims, including her best friend at the time. She chose to bring her charges to a political forum, instead of to the police. She cannot remember if just a couple of weeks ago she let the journalist see her therapist's notes or whether she gave the journalist her own summary. She refuses to hand over those notes, even though she says they are key "evidence." She hired lawyers known for anti-Trump activism. He on the other hand could refute her claims through a diary he kept at the time. Deciding that he is lying, while she is not is ridiculous.
I sincerely hope you will rethink your statements and start to look at political issues in a different and fair way, based on facts and evidence (yes, that means researching and understanding the issues), not on emotional outcries of extreme political operatives, because if such nasty, vicious, unlawful, unethical charades as we have just witnessed against Judge Kavanaugh are allowed to continue, then we as a decent society are doomed. Fine for Judge Kavanaugh? Then you could be next!
The appalling judgement circus we have just watched

Well, we certainly need to wake up, but in the name of science, progress, meritocracy and common sense, not Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ has absolutely nothing to do with it, just as the NAZI party has nothing to do with it. A priority in a game change: massively improved education, so that the terms, NAZI, or fascist, or socialism or racist are not shouted out, without any notion about their true meaning.

Even British colonization is not something to be scorned. Mistakes, yes! But on balance, the countries that were colonized profited from the legal processes, standards, education, infrastructure, technology that the British imported to those countries. The British colony that I am familiar with has many extremely grave problems since its nearly sixty independence. The African workers on the white farms in that colony received, in addition to wages, free housing, water, meat, flour/maze, milk, land for vegetables, healthcare, hospitalization when necessary, and primary schooling. Many of their descendents now live in squalid slums that did not exist during colonization. Yet, for a few decades now, in the few remaining books stores in the West, one sees books on the evils of British colonials, written by academics who never stepped foot in a British colony.

@John Hoyle My continued response to your puerile, unsubstantiated, hate-filled, bullying comment:
Impeachment One
As the initial Obama/Biden FBI plot against President Trump was exposed with details and failed, they moved on to a second try: an impeachment.
Presidents can be impeached if they commit crimes. In this case, no crime was committed. They plotted to find one. At the centre of the plot were Eric Ci*ara*me*lla and Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, the former hiding as a whistleblower, so he could not be named, questioned or accused; the latter a military insurrectionist against his Commander-in-Chief. There was a time when such insurrection from someone in the military (in uniform) would have been charged and sentenced to prison for a very long time. They found their excuse in a phone call the president made to the president of Ukraine and attempted to make it look seditious. They did not count on President Trump releasing the transcript that showed it was a perfectly acceptable conversation between two leaders.
Why the Ukraine? The Obama Administration and individuals involved in the plot were stakeholders in the Ukraine, either by virtue of their careers around Ukraine dissing Russia and joining the EU and NATO, or by virtue of their deep regime-change corruption in the Ukraine, including the Maidan Coup. They were afraid Trump's policies would put an end to their ill-gotten benefits in the Ukraine.
At first Adam Schiff held a secret court in the Capitol basement. Something unheard of under the US justice system. Once he had been cajoled into bringing his witnesses above ground, all were exposed as being deeply biased and in some cases involved in the Ukrainian corruption. On cross-examination, every single one of them admitted they knew of no adverse actions on the part of Trump; that they were basing their testimony on rumors and hearsay.
The impeachment, an obvious set up, was a massive failure. It did bring to light Joe Biden's corruption, through his son, Hunter Biden, in the Ukraine. That corruption had already been exposed by credible investigative reporters years before; however, there was no smoking-gun document, proving that Hunter was the bagman, Joe Biden the receiver of riches. The information on Hunter Biden's laptop produced that smoking gun; however, Democrats, with the assistance of Big Tech censored it before the election, so that Biden voters would not know. You should be outraged about that too.
Impeachment Two
All intelligent people know the 2020 election was rigged. Some, too fearful to fight against such fraud; others, taking advantage of it. Democrats threw ethics to the wind and joined the insurrectionists. Cowardly RINOs abandoned President Trump. Big Tech, with no objection from inept, incompetent leaders, censored and silenced President Trump. Totalitarianism had left the starting gate. None had the guts to object to a banana-republic election. Aware of the huge popularity of President Trump, Democrats sought to silence him forever, prevent him from returning in another presidential race. If they could successfully impeach him they could prevent his returning. All their other plots had failed. Just one remaining stretch. Accuse him of inciting a riot against the Capitol. As I have already mentioned, that accusation, too, was full of holes. They lost again.
In summary, two attempted impeachments. Two failures. But the march goes on. Democrat attorneys are still busy sifting for a crime with which to charge President Trump.

@loaf3833 Capitalist welfare state is an oxymoron. The Scandinavian countries are capitalist countries with generous state benefits. State benefits are funded through the taxes of those who are funded by capitalism. By the way, those countries are starting to face problems because of the government benefits. Sweden already had to reverse course, as it was heading for bankruptcy under its socialism. All capitalist economies today are mixed economies, including the US which pays more for government healthcare than any other country.
Trump's tax cuts were universal, not just for the rich. On a broader note, why on earth should the rich, who supply the jobs for the rest, pay a larger percentage of taxes? Without the rich, the unemployment rate would be horrendous. Having said that, I do believe the growing division between rich and the rest of us is a huge problem. One of the major contributing factors of that division is the exploitative outsourcing/insourcing of cheap labor that keeps wages down. Democrats fought Trump at every turn as he created initiatives to combat that destruction. Biden has reversed all his actions to curb that exploitation. A second contributing factor is the encroachment of big government and the wild creation of money, Biden having created over $6 trillion in less than 100 days. Are you prepared for the consequences of that?
Many Democrats are totally unaware of the 180-degree turn the Democrat Party has taken to the left. They believe it is still a party of classical liberalism. Their unawareness is an example of the grave dangers of a politically partnered, corrupt media and the loss of professional journalism. Those who get their news from the mainstream media don't have a clue about what has happened or what is going on. I know, because I have spoken to dozens of them.
Examples of parallels of the tactics used in 1930s Germany and the Democrat Party today, all of which have been actions of Democrats or supported by Democrats: censorship; silencing opponents; attacking opponents; falsely indicting opponents; taking business and jobs away from opponents; firing those with different political opinions; burning or banning books; propaganda masquerading as news; slander and libel throughout the news; false news to match a political narrative; corrupt government and media working together; indoctrination of school and university students; universities no longer tolerating free speech or differing political opinions; rioting (attacking, killing, smashing, destroying, burning, occupying, looting); re-education camps for conservatives (suggested by senior counsel of PBS and mainstream media); discrimination on the basis of skin color (Critical Race Theory); cooperation of big corporations and totalitarian government (fascism); politicization of science.
You sound like an intelligent person. You surely don't believe Biden, riddled with dementia, is pulling the strings. Who do you think is running the Biden Regime? Or is it just a loose cabal of leftists each pushing their own agendas, creating the worst political mess in US history.
AP and Reuters not biased? I suggest you read between the lines of anything they publish. I have not watched TV in over 20 years. I have learned, especially during the corruption of the Democrat Party during the Trump Administration to be extremely careful about news. I get my news directly from the sources, through sworn testimony (court cases and congress); original documents; leaked documents; court cases, the few remaining, credible professional journalists & reputable alternative media outlets; events on the ground as they happen on video with no voice or biased overlay; official economic statistics, etc.
When Trump announced his run for the president, I was neutral about him. As a business person, I had followed his ups and downs in business for years, but was uncertain about him as a politician; however, a major trigger for my interest in politics was to do everything possible to ensure Hillary Clinton, the most corrupt politician in US history, never becomes president. When the media is over the top with negativity, slander and libel about a candidate, intelligent people know something is wrong. I started watching Trump's rallies. His platform made economic, business and social sense. He explained it with reasons why. It was totally opposite from the media's reporting of it. I became a Trump follower. It didn't take me long, from highly reputable sources, to discover the FBI plot and corruption against President Trump. Einstein once commented on all the evil in the world but warned that more evil are those who do nothing about it. Those plots were evil. I started to actively attack the deep Democrat corruption and sedition against President Trump. That should be a given for all decent people, no matter whether they are Democrats or Republicans. An example of a committed Democrat who is now fighting the Democrat totalitarianism is Alan Dershowitz. If just one of the Democrat primary candidates had, had the guts to outright condemn the Democrat sedition against President Trump, demand that the culpable be prosecuted, and that the party clean itself up before moving on, that person would have had a supreme chance of becoming a functioning (albeit left-leaning) president). Not one had that courage. Instead, they chose Biden, and it is very simple to guess why. No intelligent person votes for such corruption to be returned to power. By the way, I used to be an Obama fan. Why, as a conservative, a topic for another thread. His administration turned out to be the most corrupt in US history. Biden's record is riddled in corruption (foreign influence peddling). Now his dementia has overtaken his corruption. He's just doing what he is being told to do by a left-wing cabal determined to bring neoliberalism and socialism to America. Susan Rice?

@MidnightJerry How old are you Jerzy? If you live in the U.S., you are experiencing the best economy ever, with the best employment statistics for all groups, directly as a result of President Trump's business platform, reduced taxes, elimination of pointless, bureaucratic regulations and a change in direction on trade deficits. Where have you been? Are you not aware that a Democrat coup was attempted against President Trump, and the Democrats in congress are the ones that are lying -- they don't want to be found out, and they are puppets of wealthy donors and CEO's who don't support President Trump because he is against open borders and the exploitive outsourcing and insourcing of cheap labor, which the donors and CEO's want to continue to fill their pockets on the backs of cheap labor. So if you are for better wages you better make damn sure you take notice of what President Trump says.
Your comment is sad. Why? It's an example of some very troubling trends. The outcome of the loss of professional journalism in the liberal mainstream media. Most troubling about that loss is the vile exploitation of lesser informed people, such as you, who apparently do not have the wherewithal or academic background to find out, through research and questioning, what is actually going on in the world. Instead believing in the political narratives and lies of the mainstream media. That in turn is extremely troubling, because, so far, there is no test of knowledge before someone can vote.

George Arndt - An idiot? Think you are looking in the mirror. Trump went to a top military academy. Graduated from one of the best business graduate schools in the world. Built a multi-billion dollar international business out of a local million-dollar business. Beat 26 (think that was the number) of candidates for president of the U.S. Has delivered the best economy in the U.S. ever, with employment stats for all groups, the best ever, directly due to his pro-business platform, negotiating skills, reduced taxes and elimination of unnecessary, bureaucratic regulations. Is the first president to make any progress with North Korea, managing to bring Americans home without paying anything to North Korea. Has the guts to challenge continuous high trade deficits that drain the U.S. of currency and kill jobs. Is dead against exploitive outsourcing and insourcing of cheap labor, that bring down wages big time and kill jobs (the reason certain CEO's won't support him, because they want to fill their pockets on the backs of cheap labor). Made a brilliant pact with Mexico to deal with the crisis at the border. On and on. How do you, George Arndt stand up to those accomplishments? Make you look pretty damn foolish. By the way, President Trump is probably in better health than most men his age, as he is particular about eating healthy food and does not drink. He will go down in history as one of the best and most popular presidents.

George Arndt Clueless on foreign policy? Did you take the time to even read the summary of the Obama Iran deal, let alone the full agreement? Of course not. Had you done that, you would know that it was alarmingly dangerous and needed to be thrown out, which President Trump did. It paved the way for nuclear war in the Middle East. Iran is the largest funder and ally of ISIS and other Islamist groups. You on board with that? Did you take the time to read just the main points of the TPP agreement, which President Trump threw out? Of course not. Had you done that, you would have understood the dangers of unelected, foreign committees and human rights tribunals interfering with American life. Do you understand the dangers of continuous trade deficits. Of course not. It appears you would prefer a continuing deficit with China that drains American currency, eliminates jobs and reduces wages.
Trump is marching off to war? What war would that be. Did you dream it. Last I knew his policy and actions have been to withdraw troops from both Afghanistan and Syria. It appears you would prefer Obama's foreign policy and war mongering, courtesy of Hillary Clinton. I suggest you read about her actions in the Middle East, particularly in Syria and Libya, creating civil war, chaos, death, destruction and the worst crisis in Europe since WW2. Saudi Arabia has been an ally of the U.S. for decades through all presidents of our lifetime.
Let's talk about Venezuela. The people of Venezuela love President Trump because of he is supporting their battle to kick out the corrupt thug, Maduro. The prime minister of Japan and President Trump are now good friends. President Xi of China and Trump disagree on trade, but they greatly respect each other. Xi was pretty damned impressed that Ivanka's children speak Mandarin. President Trump, the first president to make difficult headway with President Kim Jong-un of North Korea -- with the potential to create peace on the Korean Peninsula -- that is huge. The only leaders Trump has no time for are globalists: Macron, Trudeau, May (now gone). Anyway, enough is enough. You obviously have no idea what you are talking about, don't appear to do much research or keep up with the facts. My guess. You spend hours listening to the fake liberal mainstream media. You are parroting their political agendas.

Do you even know the reasons for this invasion? A major reason is for Russia to stop the shelling of the Donbass by the Ukrainian Azov Militia and Ukrainian Army. To date they have killed over 14,000 Russian, men, women and children in the Donbass. Putin's aim is to defeat that militia to stop the shelling. He called for diplomacy to address the issue, but Biden refused. Instead Biden turned the knife and imposed treacherous personal, economic and banking sanctions designed to shred a nation -- that is the Russian people. Biden's treachery couldn't be more depraved.
But Biden's treachery is backfiring. His threats against Russia resulted in the formation of the Russia-China alliance. With one stroke that alliance has ended US geopolitical world dominance. A new Eurasian trading and banking block has formed (Russia, China, India, Eurasia and other countries) - a huge block leaving the US and Europe out in the cold. Energy markets are already in chaos. It has resulted in the end of the US Petro Dollar and the US$ as the world's reserve currency. That means huge inflation, massive drop in the value of the dollar, and very tough economic times for the US and its allies. Germany is at risk of collapsing as a result of the actions against Russia.
It is a very good idea to be informed about issues before making pronouncements. This war is not about big, bad Russia, poor little Ukraine. In fact it is the opposite, with huge culpability on the part of the US, particularly Biden. The US has been interfering in Ukraine for 8 years, 3 of which Zelensky has been president. They have done nothing for Ukraine, running it into the ground. It is a morally and economically bankrupt country, run by deeply corrupt oligarchs (one of them, the handler of Zelensky) and relying on foreign aid, much of it siphoned into US bank accounts (Hunter Biden's no-show job on the board of Burisma for $83,000 per month & Joe Biden's bribery corruption in that regard, being one very small example of the Biden corruption in Ukraine).

Greg Fakerson Greg Fakerson - It is, quite frankly, astounding that any intelligent person can watch CNN, MSNBC etc. and actually believe what he/she is hearing. The Goebbelsian presentations have become so puerile, chilling and obvious to any intelligent person that they are astonishing political fabrications. If you don't like FOX, then I urge you to start watching the alternative news on the internet. There are tons of highly reputable commentators and reporters - ground up, live, on the ground news, that you will never see in the fake, liberal mainstream media. Then you will find out what is going on in the world. You owe it to your children (now or in the future), because if the left wins out, we are in deep trouble, including you. Its new commitment to racism (yes, that's right, racism against whites), socialism (unbelievable but true -- they never actually learned in dumbed-down liberal schools, the reality of socialism), equality of outcome, instead of opportunity for all (no more Einsteins, Cricks or Watsons - places taken up by quota students who should be in trade school), more and more teaching children to hate whites and conservative politics (yes, that's right, that has been posted on the internet, as a series of important lessons for children). WAKE UP, Greg Fakerson, and start applying common sense.

I don't think Mueller is playing a feeble, old man. He is a feeble, old man who has already entered the mists of senility, after having allowed enormous damage to be done and lives to be ruined. Long past time to start some deep research into, and exposure of, Weissmann. In my view, he is nothing but a Clinton smear agent, who has a reputation for very nasty, aggressive, off-legal prosecutions with wrongful convictions. Also time to demand that Nadler produce his financial records. Time to question him aggressively about his lies and his mentor and funder, Steyer.

Thier believers! In whom do you believe @The Addams? Have you seen the video in which John McCain was caught urging Ukrainian thugs to attack Russia? Talk about very dangerous interference in foreign governments.
Two of the most serious crises we face today are the following:
(1) The loss of professional journalism in the mainstream news, turning it into a political arm of the Democratic Party (the collusion with Hillary Clinton/theDNC/Democrats actually evidenced in their own emails), but worse than just a political arm, a Goebellian propaganda operation, ignoring important news that doesn't go their way, twisting news, making up news, slanting news to fit their agendas, pushing opinions dressed up as news, demeaning all those who don't agree with their narrative -- outright fake news that insults those who watch them.
(2) The dumbing down of education that results in illiteracy (thier), and the inability of graduates to debate with reason and intelligence, instead of resorting to name calling and vacuous innuendos designed to demean. "I'm utterly surprised by the faith of thier believers," is a vacuous innuendo. It is in no way an argument or point. It simply points out a lack of knowledge about current events and an inability to debate with intelligence. Such dumbed-down education results in an inability to research and seek out facts, and a propensity to drink in and get drunk on the propaganda the fake mainstream news sends their way.

@mickey3424 (2) Continued....
BRAGGER: Trump might win that one, but he has a whole lot to brag about. Biden literally has no record to brag about. Doesn't stop him from pouring out absurd bragging lies. Got you Corn Pop. Bribing the president of Ukraine to prevent a criminal investigation into the corrupt company, Burisma, that would have involved his son.
LIAR: Hillary Clinton started the lie about Trump/Russian collusion and funded the false Steele dossier to back up that lie. Those unethical (illegal in my view) actions have caused the most divisions in the US since the civil war. Almost every time Biden has opened his mouth, it has been a lie.
DIVIDER: What do you think happens when one political party - the Democrat Party - does the following:
Lies about an elected president for years and falsely impeaches him without any crimes to justify an impeachment.
Supports BLM, a self-declared Marxist organization, with goals to diminish Western culture, standards, tradition and accomplishments - an organization that planned and marauded through American cities with ANTIFA, destroying, attacking, smashing, burning, looting, occupying and even murdering. David Dorn, say his name.
Incorporates racist Critical Race Theory into its platform and advocates for the racist and divisive rhetoric to be taught in schools and practiced in organizations, government and military, pitting races against each other with hatred and destruction.

Make sure, then, that you do everything in your power, even as little as SM objections, to end the US manufactured war against Russia, using Ukraine as a proxy battlefield, and young and old Ukrainian men to die as proxy fodder for this evil US war. There has even been live video footage of Zelensky's men capturing Ukrainian men at gunpoint to be sent to the front to die for Western evil intentions.
Don't respond that Putin invaded Ukraine. He relentlessly called for diplomacy to end the Ukrainian genocide against Donbass Russians and US/NATO aggression at Russia's border. The US and West refused diplomacy. Liz Truss declared war against Russia, screeching that Britain would target anyone in the Kremlin who had anything to do with the continuation of Russia. She recklessly made that statement BEFORE the SMO. The US backed a huge increase of Ukrainian military at the Donbass border as Biden threatened and goaded Putin, and piled on more sanctions BEFORE the SMO.
The SMO was formed after Donetsk and Luhansk asked Russia for help to end the Ukrainian genocide against them. Given the US/West refusal of diplomacy, the SMO was formed to end the genocide.
Unbelievably, after scenes, such as we have just watched, the US/West, including Germany, are now supporting Ukrainian genocide, Nazi infiltration in Ukraine, and the most corrupt, despotic, tyrannical government in Europe, Zelensky's Ukrainian government.

@luckylokomotiongarcias6152 Hillary Clinton's involvement in Libya is also long & extremely enlightening. I knew about her dangerous ineptness in Benghazi, but I wasn't familiar with her actions re Libya leading up to Benghazi, so I took quite a bit of time to find out about them. Long, involved and sends chills down one's spine. One of the takeaways is that she really is stupid. The leaders of the various rebel factions saw her coming and walked all over her.
Interestingly, despite the conventional wisdom that she is smart, I found the same naive traits when I did some research to look into her relationship with the big banks. A huge example of pay-for-play. They paid enormous amounts for her speeches to the banks. When she ran for president, her opponents and the media were screaming for her to release those speeches. She refused. But then they were released via Wikileaks. I was shocked at how childish and devoid of banking knowledge. Whatever one says about bank executives, they don't suffer fools lightly. They must have retreated to their executive suites after those speeches and laughed their heads off. They paid for access and benefits, and she lost; then came Maxine Waters, as head of the House Committee on Financial Services. I wondered, when she hauled the CEO's into Congress for questioning, if they regretted their support for Hillary Clinton. But they won the day. They got her with her own unbelievable ignorance and stupidity.

@El Gringo -- Did you know that the accusations of a bevy of women against Trump were debunked within days by actual witnesses and ethical investigative journalists who still practice professional journalism outside the mainstream news. To make matters worse, some of these women were actually paid by a liberal lawyer to make their accusations, and others were represented by Gloria Allred, a long-time significant supporter of, and donor to, Hillary Clinton. She should have been disbarred years ago for gross conflicts of interest.
To use some of your words, "Never in a million years" would one have thought that opposition politicians and the mainstream news would drop to the level of attempting to demean and oust a candidate over filth emanating from the leader of fake news and outright lies, the National Enquirer.
Of course, your statement tells us right away that Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton would be off limits for you. Bill Clinton an impeached president, who has a documented and verified record of being a serial sexual abuser . Hillary Clinton, a disgraced candidate, who has a documented and verified record of being a long-time enabler of a serial sexual abuser. Anyone who has ever supported either of the Clintons has forever lost any credibility in ever protesting against sexual dalliances or sexual abuse.
Mexico, Central America and South America are rife with political corruption scandals, as one leader after another falls from power under a halo of scandals and corruption affecting every single citizen of the respective countries as they fall into economic chaos. Perhaps an honest leader with sound economic principles and courage who had engaged in a little on the side would have been much, much better. Meanwhile President Trump has delivered the best U.S. economy ever, with the lowest unemployment rates for African Americans and Hispanics ever, the lowest unemployment rates for women and youth in decades, the highest employment rate ever, the best stock market ever....The surge in the economy is a direct result of President Trump's pro-business platform, tax cuts, elimination of useless regulations that protect no one, stand against outsourcing that eliminates jobs and lowers wages, stand against insourcing that exploits foreign labor with rock bottom wages and lowers wages generally, initiatives to deliver fair trade (continuous high trade deficits, as in the U.S., eliminates jobs, cuts into GDP, sends business and cash overseas. I could go on and on.
Let's hope that long before a million years voters become informed enough to learn what is important and what is not; learn how to detect fake news and do their own research, while insisting that professional journalism once again become the standard. Without professional journalism, there can be no democracy. We are already seeing the US tumble into chaos and dysfunctional democracy, as the left attempts to stop free speech; as left politicians blatantly call for violence against conservatives; as cowardly liberal politicians turn a blind eye to the violence of terrorist groups such as Antifa (many supported by Soros) and the calls for socialism from students who never learned the facts of socialism in dumbed-down liberal universities.

@cicicary8948 Clinton likely a criminal prior to the Obama Administration?! Clinton, definitely a criminal prior to the Obama Administration, and for those who will respond she was not found guilty in a court of law, then highly nefarious and corrupt. I too have thought that Obama may have just been a misguided hypocritical globalist, socialist at heart (naive in some respects, graduated as a lawyer, not in economics, finance or business) and could have been roped into the Dems criminal activity. His first mistake was appointing Hillary Clinton as his SofS. I used to wonder why? Keep enemies close? Then, he, himself stated that he chose her because he thought she was the person to spread his policies/message (paraphrasing from memory). So, perhaps, not so naive, not misguided but devious as hell and from a far-left environment of community-organizaing, a misnomer and euphemism for political organizing.

I agree. Incredibly shocking. An example in Canada is Indigo, the book store. Woke and BLM leap out of its shelves and displays. Any books about Trump are anti-Trump. Positive books about Trump or the plot against Trump are not carried. Astonishingly, Heather Reisman, the owner of Indigo, is apparently a supporter of the Conservative Party in Canada, comes from a family engaged in capitalism, as she is herself, and is married to Gerry Schwartz, Founder, Chairman and CEO of Onex, an investment management firm (central to capitalism, Western innovation, and success), with $46 billion under management. Is Heather Reisman ignorant about BLM and wokeism? Or is she an incredible hypocrite?

@Stefan Tagwerker - Professional Journalism:
Objective:
Reports the news objectively, including news that may be contra to the journalist's own goals and opinions. The mainstream media simply does not report Trump's accomplishments, or puts a negative spin on them. During his campaign, they ignored his momentum and touted Hillary Clinton; hence, their shocking surprise when he won. Example: They did not cover the Hispanic rally where Hillary Clinton was chased away. They did not report on the obvious ill-health of Hillary Clinton.
The mainstream media has not been reporting objectively, and mostly not at all, about the attempted coup against President Trump. That is frightening in its implications.
Checks all sources and facts before reporting the news:
The retractions for inaccurate news or outright false news in the mainstream media are growing exponentially. An example is the doctored Time Magazine cover with the young child and Trump, as a statement against separating children from their illegal-immigrant families or minders (an aspect of children at the border also not reported on).
During the presidential campaign, the mainstream media pounded out the accusations of various women against President Trump. Within days these accusations were debunked by reputable investigative journalists in the alternative press and actual witnesses, yet the mainstream media kept barking out these false accusations. They did not report that the lawyer of some of them is a known, significant Clinton supporter and donor who should have been disbarred for gross conflict of interest. They did not report that another lawyer had actually paid accusers.
Never colludes with a political party to report in favor of it. The mainstream media was caught red-handed colluding with the DNC/Hillary Clinton to report favorably about her and even to have their stories checked by them first! They were caught through their own emails leaked to Wikileaks, the leaker now known to be no on other than one of their own -- also not reported by the mainstream news.
Putting opinions dressed up as news -- every day occurrence on the fake mainstream news.
I have just rattled some examples off the cuff. It goes on and on, and it is nothing short of shameful.

Ouch, Stef, have you ever been blind sided. I have been watching CNN in the last few days responding to the Strzok hearing, the FIFA application release, Trump's meeting with Putin, and the need to take security clearances from those who are no long working in their government jobs. CNN's reporting on all these issues has been blood-curdling, highly twisted, blatantly misleading and false, and deeply shameful. Hannity has done a great and accurate job in reporting the attempted coup. I know it has been accurate, because I have been following that coup since way before all the focus on it.
Frankly, if you want to know what is going on in the world today, you have to find out from the alternative news on the internet. Some great and reputable reporters and commentators. Also, Lou Dobbs, although obviously and admittedly conservative, is a great source if you want to find out what is really going on. He is quick to criticize conservatives and President Trump when necessary.
One of the most troubling situations right now is not just the attempted coup, but the Democrats' and fake mainstream media's attempts to mitigate or deny the subversion and in some cases support it. That should shock the living daylight out of anyone who considers him/herself ethical and decent.
Decent democrats should have the courage to face what has happened (the attempted coup and completely irrational hatred against President Trump), condemn it outright, demand that the operatives and party be cleaned out, then move forward with a fresh, ethical face.
By the way, I don't watch TV. Only the internet. I see what goes on in the fake news, because their appalling narratives and fake coverage are posted on the internet for everyone to see. I watched Anderson Cooper's venomous response to Trump's meeting with Putin (an essential meeting for two nuclear powers) in a restaurant. Anderson Cooper was so transparently venomous against Trump, I asked the restaurant to turn off the appalling outlet. It did.

ragnar I agree with some of your points. Women do tend to act on emotion in the workplace. They engage in nasty gossip; in general men prefer to avoid it. I have seen women break down and cry in board rooms; never men. I have seen women flee the workplace at 4:30 p.m. to pick up, feed and put-to-bed children, while the men stay, along with single women, to close that multi-million-dollar deal that will pay the wages for those 4:30 exiters. But, then you get the exceptions. There are courageous, intelligent, innovative, entrepreneurial woman making a difference, but the young feminists of today, indoctrinated by left-liberal, bitter female professors, are not among them. As I said to @Dante Banducci, you must be mixing with the wrong crowds.

The Pirate of Brussels was attempting to make people demean Russia for "killing" so many Ukrainian men and civilians, not rounding off her speech by explaining to the public that this war is a US. manufactured war against Russia, supported by the pirate, herself, and using Ukrainian men as proxy fodder to die for their evil intentions - men hauled out of their cars at gunpoint by Zelensky's goons, as he sat for Vogue and demands more Western taxpayer funds from darkened zoom-rooms. She also left out that the majority of civilian casualties have been at the hands of the Ukrainian forces targeting civilian areas, infrastructure, schools, hospitals, apartment buildings, homes, and the civilians themselves.

After watching your raccoons feasting on grapes, I bought a bunch and headed for the little group about which I know. They absolutely loved those grapes. Just like yours, taking the grapes in their paws and munching -- wild raccoons, yet so gentle, with soft little paws. Took some bananas too. They didn't want anything to do with them. Rolled them around in the dirt and left them. They didn't like them at all. And, oh, by the way, people I met along the way, obviously attracted to the raccoons, all knew about you and your name. You are famous, James. People love your channel.

@honeyowen3163 General Flynn a patriot and a hero. I am one who followed this case extremely closely. He was framed in more ways than one: framed on phoney charges in the first place; framed on phoney lies about charges that never should have been laid in the second place. During a Jan 5, 2017, meeting at the White House, Biden, along with Obama, Comey, Brennan, Rice, Yates & likely Strzok plotted how to frame General Flynn, knowing he was innocent. How do we know? Their own notes. Biden suggested charging him under the Logan Act. No wonder the Logan Act was on the tip of Biden's fading tongue. His son was meandering around the world, dealing with foreign leaders, without any authority, negotiating the sale of Joe Biden for huge sums of money.
To add to the shocking harassment of this brave man, his own former lawyers, who had a massive conflict of interest in that they were pals with the prosecutors, advised him to plead guilty. They, and also the prosecutors, hid (in the case of his former layers "couldn't find") exculpatory evidence that proved his innocence. All that, after the initial FBI interrogators said he had not lied and were in the process of closing the case, when Strzok, after that Jan. 5 meeting, ordered that the case not be closed. SHAME, DOUBLE SHAME ON ANYONE WHO COMMENTS ON THIS CASE, CLAIMING GENERAL FLYNN WAS GUILTY, WITHOUT HAVING FOLLOWED IT THOROUGHLY.

Not better (socialism), not smarter (biden struggled at the back of his law class; Trump attended a top military academy and one of the best business universities in the world; Biden, 47 years in government with no individual accomplishments; Trump, incredible actions to better America in just four years); certainly not moral (Obama Administration, the most corrupt in US history; Biden enriching himself at the expense of Americans, through years of illegal foreign influence peddling, using his sick son as a bagman; Obama, Biden et al plotted in a meeting at the White House, how to frame an innocent man, knowing he was innocent; most shameful attempted coup initiated by Hillary Clinton, the lies of which were spread by corrupt FBI, DOJ, CIA, DNI, and a colluding, goebbelsian media in the attempt to topple Trump and defraud the FISA court to spy on innocent individuals in the hope of opening a backdoor to get Trump; hommage to BLM, a self-proclaimed Marxist organization, with ties to terrorist activities; two phoney impeachment attempts based on manufactured evidence; a stolen election), Say no more. Trend on social media, already utter contempt for Joe Biden.

Trucker's Convoy in Toronto: Hundreds of thousands went out to support the truckers. Many trucks, not as many as there would have been if the police had not blocked off many streets. The crowds: Groups, families, couples, singles, old, middle-aged, young, teens, children, even a few babies, dogs, all ethnic groups, black, brown, white, indigenous, professionals, office workers, working class, Canadians, immigrants -- everyone, including the truck drivers, very friendly. No violence. Takeaway: With that kind of support for the truckers, the mayor of Toronto, Tory, the premier of Ontario, Ford, and the PM of Canada, Trudeau, better haul out and dust off their résumés!

Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity? Firstly, it has no sovereignty. The US is ruling Ukraine through Zelensky. Territorial integrity? Peace and independence for Donetsk and Luhansk WITHIN Ukraine was negotiated under the Minsk Agreement. Ukraine/US/West refused to honor that agreement. Ukrainian genocide against Donbass Russians continued, so Donetsk and Luhansk broke away and declared independence OUTSIDE Ukraine.
Putin's very reasonable demands before the SMO included independence for Donetsk and Luhansk WITHIN Ukraine, as per the Minsk Agreement; however, as the genocide against them continued, Russia recognized Donetsk and Luhansk as independent OUTSIDE Ukraine. They asked Russia to help them end the genocide against them. Russia activated its SMO.
Meanwhile, Official Ukrainian discrimination/apartheid against Russian-Ukrainians, Ukrainian forces targeting civilian areas and civilians, themselves, and the genocide against Donbass Russians resulted in Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaparazia and Kherson regions; soon Odessa Region) voting overwhelmingly to be part of Russia.
Vile, inhumane, Ukrainian policies caused these Russian-speaking areas to want to be part of Russia. Self-determination, a UN-recognized human right. They will never peacefully return to Ukraine. Forcing them to be part of Ukraine will be equivalent to a Second Iron Curtain.

@mw6983 You are a liberal, of course; a left liberal. It is remarkable how such ridiculous comments inevitably come from the left. Why is that? One reason is that so many leftists went, or go to, liberal arts colleges. They didn't even learn some of the important arts subjects: history, political science, logic, civics, ethics, etc., let alone that they don't have a clue about math, sciences, economics, finance, business, etc. Their lack of education and understanding of current issues causes them to resort to the kind of nonsense that you have posted.

@drjerry5389 I don't know anything about any corporations requiring employees to agree not to boycott Israel and its products. Sounds incredibly bizarre! Show us the evidence! As far as Israel is concerned, it has a hard and standard rule. Its military is a DEFENSIVE military. It never proactively attacks, but it will respond to attacks against it. Support of Israel is most certainly not exclusive to right wingers. A disturbing number of left-wingers do want to erase Israel and support Hamas, a terrorist organization. I spoke to some of these individuals when they were demonstrating in support of Hamas. I discovered, without exception, they were totally uninformed about the issues and history of Israel and Palestine.
My thoughts. Whether one agrees with the creation of Israel in 1948 or not, it is there to stay - not going anywhere anytime soon or ever. Addressing issues as they are NOW (versus as they were in the past) is essential for solving problems. Palestinians clamoring for Israel to be erased, proactively hurling rockets into Israel, and screaming and whining about its creation is a losing proposition and, in my view, abuse against Palestinian children. The funds, time and energy would be much better spent properly educating children (I have watched live videos of the hatred they are being taught in second-rate schools), improving the Palestinian economy and infrastructure, and lastly removing religion from politics and interacting with Israel to create peace, as other Middle Eastern countries have started to do under the agreements carved out under the Trump Administration.

@Kerri -- If you go around not trusting people because of vacuous, unsupported hunches, you are going to have a tough life. Don't drop to the lowest common dominator of the fake liberal mainstream news. Provide your reasons and/or evidence that something is not right, or stop making such puerile comments. How would you like it, if say, your employer or a friend, started telling others that something is not quite right with you and not to trust you, without any reasoning or evidence? Would be pretty awful, wouldn't it? Heaven help America and the world, if it's held as acceptable to resort to the level of the accusations of phoney Russian/ Trump collusion from the Fake News Media. Be ethical, be smart, use reason and supply evidence.

@EZGlutenFree -- Brett Kavanaugh is lying?!!! How do you know that? Were you there? Do you know him? Have you some shattering information you are shamefully keeping from the public? Or is that what some political pundit on CNN or MSNBC or ABC told you? Present your facts, or apologize for publicly stating your puerile but dangerous assumptions as facts. People can go to prison for that.
"He may have done things and not even remembered his own behavior"?!!! Are you kidding us. Are you seriously saying that he and all the witnesses she named don't remember? NEVER make unproven derogative assumptions about others; they are almost alway wrong. If you do, the karma of that behavior will circle around to bite you, big time.
Meanwhile, every single witness whom she has mentioned, including her best friend at the time, has refuted her claims. It is she who can't remember where, when, how she got there, how she got home, what notes she gave the journalist just a few weeks ago, or even who was there. She has named people who were not there. On the other hand he has diaries that pretty well conclusively prove he was not involved.
"The whole thing is pretty appalling." What is appalling? That Kavanaugh, along with millions of other college students now in prominent positions had a few drinks in college? Or that this woman has foggy, unsubstantiated, highly likely false or created memories and chose a political arena to accuse a man, knowing the deep, deep damage it would cause?

@jimbrew4529 Sad thing is that if I were to ask you for details about why Putin is a thug in your eyes, you would not be able to answer with credibility and evidence. I have come across this kind of blind thuggery, libel, misinformation and vicious innuendos that you are employing every time I have asked Democrats to be specific about their hatred. They just shout the slander they have heard on CNN and MSNBC, two Democrat goebbelsian propaganda arms.
Do you know how ridiculous you make yourself look, calling President Trump "Putin's Poodle" when he did absolutely nothing positive for Russian/American relations. No doubt you still have Hillary Clinton's fabrication on your mind -- missed it's being totally discredited.
During her presidential campaign, Hillary Clinton, apparently on the advice of her smear agent, Sidney Blumenthal, made up a lie about Russian/Trump collusion to detract from her email scandal. How do we know? John Brennan, head of the CIA at the time, briefed Obama about it. That briefing has been released to the public.
She then funded a false dossier to back up her lies, that was used to defraud the FISA court to illegally obtain warrants to spy on innocent Americans in the hope of bringing down Trump through them. How do we know? Her laundered funds were traced from the DNC, through her law firm, Perkins Coie, on to smear agents, Fusion GPS, who were colluding with a former British spy who hated Trump to produce the false dossier. How do we know the dossier was false? The seditious former British spy, Christopher Steele's main source for the dossier, Igor Danchenko, a suspected Russian spy, who worked with the liberal-left think tank, the Brookings Institute, told us so in sworn testimony under FBI questioning and through documents presented in a European Court Case. Documents in Alpha Bank's lawsuit have now also been presented, indicating that not one of the supposed sub-sources for the false dossier had anything to do with it.

"My National Security Team and I have been closely monitoring events...." Let's end this farce, Joe Biden! You haven't been monitoring anything. You chose a completely inept National Security Team -- babies out of their useless universities. They wrote this script for you to read. If you had written it, you would have said, "I have been monitoring events closely with my National Security Team...." This has got to end. America (open borders, fall of Afghanistan, races pitted against each other, military categorizing and fighting their own, overcrowding, gender stretching, payback to China, rapidly increasing inflation) and the world have become extremely dangerous places because of YOU.

I also read his book. Just finished re-reading it. He and his fellow infantrymen are the heroes. Their bravery is beyond measure, impossible to wrap our minds around it. They deserve the utmost respect and dignity. Unfortunately, Obama did not do right for the forces or America. Not only did he not do right, but also the most vile and shameful political scandal in US history -- an attempted coup -- materialized under his watch -- his civil servants, with sign posts leading a path to the Oval Office. He politicized the armed forces, and brave soldiers were tried and convicted for acts of war on the battlefield. Thank goodness for President Trump who stands with these brave soldiers and behind ordinary Americans. SSG Bellavia, a true military man who acknowledged the incoming president as his new Commander in Chief, without prejudice, unlike Vindman who put on his uniform to attack, in an attempt to remove, his Commander in Chief. In my view Vindman should be dishonorably discharged for insubordination and sedition.

OMG, Kissinger doesn't have the first clue: Donetsk, Luhansk and Crimea have voted overwhelmingly to join Russia. There is no need for another referendum. Appears this old man has no idea about one of the main reasons for Russia's SMO: to end the Ukrainian genocide against Donetsk and Luhansk, after the US/West refused diplomacy to end that genocide and US/NATO aggression.
Why on earth should Russia concede to Ukraine entering NATO, especially after the history, since the NATO Bucharest summit in 2008.
Hints about why the plan is ridiculous:
US-initiated Maidan Coup.
Ukrainian genocide against Donbass Russians, while the US shadow government was interfering in Ukraine.
US/NATO funding, weaponizing of Ukraine.
US/NATO forces actively engaged in hostilities against Russia, usking Ukraine as a proxy battlefield.
US/West support of nazi forces in Ukraine.
US/UK/EU admitted goal to tear Russia apart.
Angela Merkel's admitting that Germany and France had no intention of honoring the Minsk Agreement, but rather signed as guarantors to create more time to arm Ukraine.
Pushing NATO into Ukraine, is brushing Russia's concerns under the carpet.
Kherson and Zaparosia have voted overwhelmingly to join Russia, a UN right of self-determination. Obviously Kissinger has not been following this war carefully. Apparently he has no idea why they do not want to be part of Ukraine. Hint: Official Ukrainian apartheid policies against Russian-Ukrainians; harassment and sporadic attacks of Azov against civilians in Mariupol BEFORE current conflict; consistent and methodical Ukrainian attacks against civilians during the current hostilities.

The best advice for H&M is for them to honor their avowed need for privacy.
Drop out of all public activities, including reality/lifestyle influencer vlogs. They cannot overcome the public's dislike of them, resulting from their own hateful activities. No matter what they do, the response will be negative.
Publicly apologize to the RF and British people, but make it clear they are not returning to the RF.
Stop participating in public events, pretending to be royal invitees.
Voluntarily shed their titles (except H's title of prince), including titles for their kids.
Never use their former titles, RF connections or any reference to the RF for their own endeavors.
Downsize and move to a smaller, more affordable home, such as five bedrooms/baths max. Will relieve them of a load of pressure.
Find real jobs behind the scenes.
Perhaps, after about ten years out of the limelight, the RF and public may forgive them, giving them room to create public endeavors again, but I doubt it. Harry could possibly move into the public sphere sooner, creating charitable documentaries. He's good at that, but would have to drop his ridiculous legal battles to regain favor. MM will always fail at charitable work. It's not in her DNA. She's all about herself.

Such corrupt dishonesty, not forgetting that if Kamala Harris had an ounce of morality, she would have responded that antisemitism and terrorism must not be tolerated in civilized countries; that Israel is fighting for its existence and has every right to do what it takes to eradicate Hamas and Hezbollah, two evil terrorist organizations that have not been shy about stating their hatred of Jews and their intention to wipe out israel and Jews.
If people don't like the structural and lethal collateral damage, to look to the causes and those responsible:
- Hamas's invasion of Israel on Oct. 07/23, heinous atrocities and genocide against Israeli Jews.
- Hezbollah's offensive attack against Israel from the north.
- Hamas's and Hezbollah's blending their terrorist operations with civilian activities in hospitals, schools, hotels, homes, apartment buildings, using civilians as human shields and ensuring the human collateral damage (as opposed to genoside)will be much higher.

@charles-y2z6c I agree. We have to find innovative ways to improve teaching in both schools and universities. Some ideas off the cuff in no particular order.
- End tenure.
- Fire underperforming teachers.
- School choice.
- Meritocracy (end all affirmative action and race-based benefits).
- Teaching partnerships with industry and business.
- Part of university degrees earned on the job.
- Requirement for professors (depending on discipline) to have worked in the private sector before teaching.
- Reintroduce the basics, such as math, sciences, history, written & verbal communications, ethics, etc.
- Make life planning a mandatory course for high-school graduation (goals for career, family, finance, interests, etc. making sure they all correlate).
- Economics, finance, business, securities markets required for graduation from high school.
- Get rid of middle-management bureaucracy.
- Subsidized boarding-school opportunities for low-income students.
- Political indoctrination of students, a criminal offense.
- Re-introduction of after-school activities.
- Ban teachers' unions.
- Teachers' pay commensurate with results.
- Government or private programs to reward successful people in the private sector for signing up for part-time teaching (at schools or universities).

Epstein was no friend of President Trump. He knew him, of course, as all the crowd in Palm Beach knew him. The truth is that President Trump threw him out of Mara Lago for inappropriate sexual behavior. President Trump was also the only person in that top-echelon crowd that volunteered to help the prosecutors against Epstein. He once hitched a ride on one of Epstein's lesser planes from Miami back to Washington. Epstein's brother has given evidence about who was on that plane. There were no women, no young girls.
The world is so full of hypocrites who choose to ignore, hide or mitigate their political agendas, while attempting to crucify individuals with whom they do not agree, without regard to the personal consequences (Brett Kavanaugh). Bill Clinton was (may still be?) a long-term sexual abuser. His wife was his enabler, setting up war rooms to greatly demean, and in some cases, have investigated, his victims, with the help of her smear agent, Sidney Blumenthal. She called his victims, "Bimbo Eruptions," yet Democrats down play, attempt to remove evidence of, or completely ignore, Bill Clinton's sexual abuses and attempt to completely ignore Hillary Clinton's role as an enabler of serial sexual abuse. These Democrats are me-too women and other women who supported Hillary Clinton or support anyone who has every supported her or Bill Clinton.
Let us remember that Bill Clinton, despite his denials, deviously coated in a different time line, flew on the Lolita Express a minimum of 26 times, evidenced by the plane logs.

@yfelwulf Firstly, let's get one thing very straight. I am no fan of what is going on in the US right now - far from it. My comment was to oppose your joy of a country collapsing, rather than hoping for the collapse of the things that have gone wrong in the country. I don't know where you live, but a collapse of the US will mean a collapse of countries worldwide. That is one of the top lessons right before our eyes in 2008.
GOLD
The notion of gold backing a currency no longer has any credibility whatsoever. Even Max and Stacy seem to have stopped pushing that notion. There is not enough gold in the world to back up currencies that are required to maintain the massive global population today (or even the massive US population today -- growing exponentially in Biden's stateless country). Also, one must always keep in mind that Stacy and Max have an agenda. Perhaps they should declare their activities in Bitcoin before each show.
The printing of mammoth amounts of money is, of course, madness. In normal times, it is the people who print more money (mortgages, credit cards, car loans, student loans, lines of credit, consumer loans, etc.); however, apparently today that has reversed, as consumer debt has declined during CoVid, and the Fed is out of control, printing trillions of Biden dollars.
TOP 50 COMPANIES AND TAX
Just have to check the first company to wipe away any credibility in your statement that the top 50 companies pay no tax.
Walmart income taxes for the quarter ending January 31, 2021 were $1.415B, a 2.61% increase year-over-year.
Walmart income taxes for the twelve months ending January 31, 2021 were $6.858B, a 39.53% increase year-over-year.
SWIFT
I am not very familiar with SWIFT, but I believe it is upgrading its systems to accommodate direct transfer payments. That sounds good to me, but as I said I am no expert on SWIFT
CORPORATE BAILOUTS
A slow encroachment of government into the private sector. Just what Biden and his team want.
Was the go-ahead for the FED to purchase corporate bonds black and white? No. Started at the direction of Congress with pushback from certain Republicans. Saved large corporations from bankruptcy, but that translates into saving the shareholders of those corporations, millions of whom are ordinary people who are shareholders -- some even unaware that they are shareholders as the holdings are on the part of their pension and other savings funds. It also translates into saving the bond investors, many of whom are also ordinary people. Should any of these stakeholders be saved. That is highly debatable and a very complex issue.
No easy answer. Very difficult to sort out the incredible intertwined mess.
Congress is at the centre of the huge mess we face today. I have said all along that it is time for those who stand for election to have a threshold of qualifications, most importantly, economics, finance, banking, business, securities markets, along with testing to qualify to be a candidate -- probably wouldn't work. There wouldn't be enough people who could qualify and want to run for public office. Personally, I believe the private-equity market has done untold financial damage, with rippling domino effects.
BOTTOM LINE
Important that people be informed about these issues, so that they can propose credible ideas for change, rather than just whining about them, and so that they can cast informed votes. Uninformed votes equal dysfunctional democracy. Biden supporters today are a perfect example of mostly uninformed voters, or outright socialist marxists.

You mean not supporting Israel that is retaliating against genocidal, nihilistic Hamas terrorists who are intent on decimating Israel and Jews?
They explicitly advertised that goal to the world on October 07, 2023, when Hamas extremist terrorists invaded Israel and committed heinous, grotesque, genocidal atrocities against 1,200 innocent Israeli civilians, urged on by celebrating civilians lining Gaza streets as the terrorists roared past, shooting off their rifles, their human catch displayed on their flatbed trucks. Atrocities and civilian celebrations that Hamas, themselves, filmed and posted online for all to see.
Your comment against supporting Israel is not only similar to the nihilism rampant in California, but you have made it without a second thought of the danger to the US and West, if Israel were to be wiped out by Islamist extremism.
Ukraine is a totally different situation, an evil US hegemonic war, started by Biden to tear apart Russia, plunder its and Ukraine's resources, and overtake that area of Eurasia - not too different from the colonization goals of Islamists against not only Israel, but all Judeo-Christian countries - the West.

@Cristi Neagu - Problem is that millions of women who work never planned their lives. They never determined their passions, strengths, likes and dislikes to plan their lives accordingly so that goals for family, career, finances, interests, etc. all correlate. Having, say, three children without the financial wherewithal to employ or arrange 24/7 care for them does not correlate with climbing a corporate ladder. Women/mothers in the workforce leave before closing time, some "work from home" (actually looking after their children, with a stream of vacuous emails late at night to make it appear as if they have been working), don't contribute to necessary after-hours work, and are distracted during the workday. Then comes maternity leave, another risk for business owners, that should be eliminated.

Not the first time a country has seized art that does not belong to it. It's called theft. It is evil. Criminal behavior. Why has Finland stolen this art? For years Putin called for diplomatic negotiations to stop the shelling of Donbass Russians by Ukraine's Azov Militia and Army. The calls fell on deaf ears. Did Finland enter into any diplomatic talks in this regard? Did it offer to help? To date, over 14,000 Russian men, women and children have been killed by the shelling.
Peace was negotiated with the Minsk Agreement. Ukraine a main signatory to the agreement. It guaranteed the end of the shelling and independent status for Donetsk and Luhansk in Donbass. Corrupt Ukrainian oligarchs, including Zelensky, and US interlopers, refused to honor the agreement. The shelling still continues.
As Biden's threats escalated, so did Putin's and Lavrov's calls for diplomacy. Biden refused any good-faith negotiations. So Putin recognized Donetsk and Luhansk as independent states, free to choose their own alliances. They asked for Russian help. Russia entered Ukraine to encircle the Azov Militia & Army to stop the shelling once and for all.
What would Finland have done if, say, Russia was shelling and killing thousands of Finns in an enclave of Finns in Russia at the Finnish/Russian border? Would it have asked for help diplomatically? If the world refused to help, would it have left those Finns to their own devices to perish? Or would it have taken military action to stop the shelling?
Russia took action to help and is being severely punished for that, as the West, including Finland, calls for arms for the Azov Militia and Ukrainian Military to continue the death and destruction. EVIL MADNESS.

Unbelievably stupid BBC apparatchik! We have got to get rid of these lemming, goebbelsian media outlets. I recommend everyone stop watching them. Tolerance, diversity and human rights: allow these three attributes to dictate your migration policies and watch your country implode. We should have no tolerance for migrants who suck up benefits, while plotting against, and attacking the values of, their new countries. Diversity has proven to be nothing but division. Human rights? What about the human rights of the citizens of the countries that the migrants are overtaking, costing the taxpayers more and more of their hard-earned money, increasing violent and sexual crimes dramatically, and demanding that Western society respect their lower standards, such as abusing women. Fill a country to overflowing, especially when the citizens don't support such actions, and watch the country implode economically and socially. That goes against all human rights.

@Charlotte Riddle -- When you think about it, for months, only Fox has covered the attempted coup against the U.S. government, constitution, and president. The lack of coverage of that treasonous attempt is so huge, it's hard to wrap one's mind around how Democrats and their partners, the mainstream news, ever descended so low and away from any notion of democracy, decency and reason. The only minuscule coverage by the fake mainstream media has been to deny it, mitigate it or even support it.
As intimated in one of Albert Einstein's quotes, worse than the evil of evil doers is the evil of those who stand back and allow the evil to happen, without doing anything about it.
That is why I now spend so much time protesting the evil that has been going on among Democrat leaders.

Exactly. Russia is a country overflowing with a history of rich and present culture in literature, dance, music, architecture, art and fashion. That evil people, such as Biden, von der Leyen, Johnson, et al, want to tear apart and destroy the country and the Russians for no apparent rational reason, except to prop up their own power, steal and plunder, and generate military and financial profits, is so repugnant to me that I am spending hours speaking out against them.

The neocons will push the Biden Administration to escalate, but it is already collapsing today. After 2022, Biden won't be a wet suit, he'll be wet nappies. He may even be gone. After 2024, he, Nuland, Blinken, Sullivan, will definitely be gone. The Clinton team even further smashed. Pelosi, powerless & on her way to gah, gah land. Will left and right neocons still be in the shadows? Yes. But I believe either Trump or deSantis will be president. They may not have the guts to correct the "Putin is evil" rhetoric, but they will put an end to this war.

@RedRisotto Looks fake? Don't you follow what is going on in the world? There is nothing fake about the deaths of these misguided SJW tourists. Try telling that to their parents and family. A large portion of Western society has fallen to a level far below stupidity. They include feminists gone amok, socialists who don't even remember the USSR, communist/socialist infiltration in university faculties, globalists who think destroying Western culture (the precursor to all benefits in the world today) is a good idea, SJW's who scream for the end of Western culture and white accomplishments, as they wade in all those white accomplishments, advocates of affirmative action who toss resumes of far better qualified people aside, believers in open borders to fill their countries up to economic and societal breaking point, diminished schooling that no longer teaches math, sciences, history and has never taught economics and finance, mad gender stretchers, etc. Become informed about what is going on in the world today, and be damn sure you know and understand the platform and principals of any political party with which you align yourself.

The US is most certainly responsible for the war in Ukraine, without any reservations.
Your Liz Truss was also most definitely a trigger. She screeched on UK TV, BEFORE Russia's SMO, that Britain would target anyone in the Kremlin who had anything to do with the continuation of Russia, a reckless declaration of war to wipe Russia off the map.
Her subsequent, abominable behavior towards Lavrov in Moscow, threatening, rude, and ignorant of the relevant geography, was a trigger.
Boris Johnson rushed to Kiev to order Zelensky to stop the initial peace negotiations taking place in Turkey early on in the war.
Putin showed African delegates the initial peace MOU signed by Ukraine. As a show of its commitment, Russia retreated from Kiev. Not only was Ukraine and the US/West dishonest about why Russia had moved out, but they also spun detrimental lies about why, with Ukraine committing one of the most heinous red flags we have ever witnessed, staging a field of slaughter in Bucha to falsely blame the Russians, using bodies of civilians cut down by Ukrainian forces.
After Biden shuffled into the WH, he started vilifying Putin, Russia and Russians. He spread a campaign of hatred against them for no apparent acceptable reason. He kept predicting that Russia would invade Ukraine by a certain date. When no invasion happened, he moved the date forward.
What was going on? Biden, riddled with dementia, so prescient? Turns out, not reported in the MSM, Biden was orchestrating a huge Ukrainian military build-up at the Donbass and Russian borders. He was goading Russia into war! Apart from war for MIC profits, potential plunder and hegemony, a Russian invasion would be, and was, perfect cover for his planned explosion of Nord Stream
Meanwhile the US/West egregious sanctions, false signing of the Minsk Agreement (Germany), funding, supplying, and training of Ukrainian forces, including the neonazi AZOV regiment committing genocide against Donbass Russians, and US/NATO offensive aggression from Ukraine, a non-NATO country, as well as other acts of war contributed to Russia's SMO.
Within days of Liz Truss's appalling behavior in Moscow, Russia recognized Donetsk and Luhansk as independent states. They asked for Russia's help to end the genocide against them, Russia activated its SMO to end the genocide and US/NATO acts of war and aggression against it from Ukraine.
Biden was also the US point man in Ukraine, initiating the bloody Maidan Coup to oust a duly elected Ukrainian president because he favored friendly trade relations with Russia. That coup spilled into civil war and genocide against the Donbass Russians, aided and abetted by the US/NATO, a key reason for the SMO.
A deeply shameful period for the US/NATO/West. An existential war for Russia. The US/West has been explicitly clear about their intention to tear Russia and Russians apart. Of course Russia will defend itself against such threats.

This woman is an embarrassment to women and the United States. (By the way, I agree that one of the most serious crises we face today is massive, irresponsible population growth. It should be the responsibility of each one of us to have no more than two children per lifetime, not per marriage or relationship. We created the need for such restrictions on ourselves by collectively not procreating responsibly -- sitting back and saying nothing as the population exploded beyond maintenance levels; not understanding the exponential nature of population growth; not understanding that it is not a matter of being able to afford more children, as we live on a finite planet and all compete for limited, and in some cases dwindling, resources -- a child of wealthy parents consumes thousands of times the resources that a child of poor parents consumes. The dire consequences of overpopulation are already knocking on each of our doors: poverty, disease, hunger, resentments, civil wars, international wars, terrorism (in some cases), unemployment, lower wages (result of outsourcing and insourcing and crowded market), massive pollution, environmental destruction (that does not include global warming that is complete pseudo-science), scarce and rising costs of housing, overcrowded schools, growing tax-sucking governments, destructive welfare systems, massive migrations....on and on.

@johnsmith1474 Age gives wisdom, until dementia kicks in. If Pelosi once had wisdom, then she surely has some sort of dementia now, because she is the leader of astonishingly foolish actions. Now, John Smith, I expect I am a whole lot closer to Pelosi's age than your age. Bigot?! Definition of bigot: "a person who is intolerant toward those holding different opinions." That fits your response to my comment to a tee -- also fits Pelosi's actions against Trump in this whole, shameful Russia/Ukraine false Democrat narrative. Read your comment again. You managed to totally contradict yourself in a few words. Pelosi sucks....Age gives wisdom. You are nothing but a bully: "you are really naive and stupid," both of which I am far from. "You filthy little bigot." Name calling is bullying. If being intolerant of the current opinions of the Democrat Party, then you might have an argument in calling me a bigot. You might find it interesting to know that I was an adamant supporter of Obama; however, his administration and the deep state surviving his administration, have turned out to be the most corrupt in U.S. history. So bigot? I don't think so, I am willing to follow common sense. A lesson learned in following Obama. Never compromise core beliefs. I am conservative and don't believe in large government. I compromised my beliefs in going for Obama. I misjudged the man by not doing sufficient research, albeit the most significant information (his sponsors from university to president were purposely deeply hidden). Trump 2020 -- and too bad it can't be for longer. So, John Smith, I know you are fairly young ("cuz"), grow up and debate the issues with facts, without resorting to personally attacking those with whom you disagree.

Ukraine's democracy and freedom, Harry? Ukraine is headed by a puppet dictator. Opposition political parties are not tolerated. The SMO was formed to defeat the Ukrainian Azov Army that had been shelling Donbass Russian civilians. By the start of 2021, over 14,000 Russian men, women and children had been killed in that genocide. It continues today, as Russia's military encircles the offending Ukrainian military. Russia (Putin and Lavrov) constantly called for diplomacy to end the genocide and US/NATO aggression. The US, UK, EU/West refused diplomacy that had potential to bring peace, end the genocide, and prevent current hostilities. The US/UK/EU/West sided with, and joined genocide, nazism and despotic dictatorship, the very same horrors in Germany that millions died in WW2 fighting.
How dare you lecture the world about democracy and freedom, Harry, citing the Ukraine War, when you apparently don't know a darn thing about the history, events, or players that caused it.

Another wrong turn -- Russian interference. What interference? A few conversations on Facebook? Computer hacking. Many countries attempt to hack into American government computers. (Of course, we now know the Chinese hacked Hillary Clinton's unsecured, illegal, independent server. They apparently received all information passing through her server in real time.) People fail to understand that political conversations that used to be conducted in private living rooms are now discussed on public, internet commentary sites. It's political chatter and debate. If a commentator in, say, Timbuktu, persuades some Americans that anyone who conducted the felonious activities that Hillary Clinton did should not be president, then so be it -- actually a good thing. If authorities are afraid that foreigners may influence American voters, then up the American education standards, so that American voters have the intellectual background and education to make their own sound, common-sense decisions, based on facts. Oh yes, interference from Russia? A phoney dossier used to obtain illegal FISA warrants to spy on Donald Trump, a dossier with suggested Russian input (although I am not sure if any of the input will turn out to have originated in Russia) and paid for by Hillary Clinton/DNC -- If any Russians were behind the fabricated dossier, then you have MASSIVE Russian interference in an election via one of the candidates, Hillary Clinton, not Donald Trump

Let's hope the Democrats don't get it, so they and their racism, gender stretching, socialism, woke globalism, corrupt leaders, and demented frontman can be wiped off the political stage at least until that party purges its corruption, expels its corrupt leaders, drops its totalitarian reset agenda, insists that its seditious plotters against President Trump, including Hillary Clinton, be held criminally accountable, and that the party be cleaned up before moving forward with a return to centrist, classical liberalism.

There is far more than the family dynamics involved. It is simply untenable that titled RF members can go around the world trashing Britain's RF, Head of State, Constitutional Monarchy, Government, British people and the Commonwealth, and then attend the Coronation. Their presence will make a mockery of the RF, Head of State, Constitutional Monarchy, Government, British people and the Commonwealth. They MUST NOT BE THERE. It's a state issue, as well as a family issue. If they had any integrity, they would be true to their criticisms and stay away and voluntarily give up all their titles.

The chancellor sacked?! It should be Liz Truss. The most inept British PM ever, totally devoid of leadership skills. Liz Truss is a chilling, ignorant, uninformed, arrogant, dangerous warmongering menace. Her warmongering and support for death and destruction in bankrupt Ukraine, support for outrageous and unjustified sanctions against Russia, and aggressive war drumming are key elements in Britain's dire economic mess today. She is totally lacking in experience in finance and economics to sort out Britain's mess, which will never be sorted out until Britain ends its sanctions against Russia (that under Putin) has never done anything to Britain, ends Britain's depraved dabbling in terrorism (Kerch Bridge) against Russia, and ends all aid (weapons and funding) for Ukraine.
Liz Truss single handedly declared war on Russia BEFORE its SMO. Paraphrasing, she screamed that Britain would target anyone in the Kremlin who had anything to do with the continuation of Russia, a reckless, ignorant declaration of war. This chilling woman needs to be challenged about the REAL reasons Britain has declared war on Russia. It is not about the SMO started after her chilling declarations, and formed to end Ukrainian genocide against Donbass Russians and US/NATO (British) aggression, after the US/UK/West refused Putin's relentless calls for diplomacy to end the genocide and aggression.

In addition to the Aga Khan, Lavalin and WE scandals, I believe two of the most serious issues why Trudeau should not be PM of Canada are the following.
Prior to entering politics, he was let go as a teacher from a private school, because he had an inappropriate sexual affair with an underage student whose father has hinted was even younger than 15. Trudeau made the student sign a NDA in consideration of over $million. Her father emphasized that he signed no NDA, and he publicized the sordid scandal a couple of weeks before election day. Unfortunately, many misguided Canadians who voted for him missed the whole story.
Trudeau signed on to the UN Migrant Compact, a self-important, draconian UN directive that Western countries must take in and fund migrants, no vetting or questions asked. True to failing democracy today as a result of ignorant electorates, most Canadians who voted for Trudeau had either never heard of this destructive directive; or if they had, didn't care, as they voted for Trudeau, because, as new immigrants, they voted for the person that would allow their wide extended families into the country. The UN Migrant Compact, first by persuasion (as it has no legislative teeth), then by legislation (as legislation is created to give it teeth) has potential to completely destroy Canada, its traditions and mores.

By digging in further, sprouting out new plots, the Democrats are shooting themselves in the foot. I used to comment that if Obama had had the courage to condemn outright what happened, demand accountability and justice, and that the party be cleaned up before moving on with a clean slate, he would have safeguarded a legacy of respect (if not on political issues and foreign policy). Then it started to sink in slowly why he could or would not do that. He himself was complicit.
I believe, if one of the primary Democrat candidates had had the courage to come clean, he/she would have won the primary, albeit, America would still have been at risk of a Democrat win with all its crazy policies: big government, identity politics, open borders, continuous mass immigration, sanctuary cities, funding for illegal migrants, continued dangerous regime-change chaos, continued exploitive outsourcing/insourcing of cheap labor, etc. Now it's too late for any come-clean admission. So much damage has been done. No turning back.

Corrupt Alvin Bragg from New York too. I think different legal districts. Phoney case against Trump for a Non-Disclosure-Agreement consideration (perfectly legal) paid to Stormy Daniels, not by Trump, himself, but by a corrupt peripheral lawyer and felon, falsely categorized by Bragg as a campaign contribution. Meanwhile, as all this was going on, Eric Adams was allegedly, but convincingly, up to his ears in illegal real campaign contributions, other bribes and foreign influence peddling. The Democrat Party needs to be washed out with bleach, the culpable charged, and re-started as the original classical liberal party it once was.

@bobartor910 I have always said the "tape" exists. Learn how to read and comprehend. This is the recording that the people who disseminated the false story, slander and libel erased, not understanding that it could be retrieved. By the way, some advice: support fraudulent elections, and it will come back to bite you and your family. Meanwhile, did you take European history in school? I suggest you start researching the history of Germany between the two world wars. The tools and tactics used to bring Hitler to power and maintain his power are alarmingly similar to the tools and tactics used today to put Biden in the White House and keep him there. They include censorship, silencing enemies, enemies lists (suggested by AOC and taken up by other Democrat leaders and used in the Obama IRS), re-education camps (suggested by top lawyer at PBS), attacking opponents, approval of attacking opponents (Nancy Pelosi, Maxine Waters et al), rioting and looting shops, propaganda as approved news, loss of free speech at universities, falsely indicting opponents (General Flynn - Biden in meeting at WH plotting how to frame an innocent man, knowing he was innocent), spying on opponents and innocent individuals, cooperation of big business with the totalitarian regime, racism (Critical Race Theory, one of the most vile racist theories of our time), etc.

@Rivenburg-xd5yf Indeed. Obama sat back and watched. He wasn't as huge a war monger as she was. In retrospect, when he ran for president, most had no idea about his affiliation with, and support of, Muslim groups. His appointment of Hillary Clinton as SofS was the first waring sign and a subject of huge interest that will be debated for years to come, particularly as she and her smear agent, Sidney Blumenthal, elevated political filth (against Obama) to heights never seen before. Did you know she wanted Sidney Blumenthal to be her chief advisor at the DoS? Obama and his administration, still reeling from the mud they had slung his way, refused to approve him. She used him anyway, behind Obama's back, conversing with him privately over her illegal bathroom server. It was he who dreamt up the false talking-point about the Benghazi attack spilling out of a demonstration against a wicked US video -- an attempt to mitigate her culpability and divert the focus from her ineptitude.

I don't think it's media bias. My god, if there were no media bias, there would be no conservative news in the mainstream media. FOX has media bias. The big difference is that FOX reports the news and reality as it happens, albeit with a conservative bias; while the rest of the mainstream media pretends to be objective, while actually touting a political narrative: cutting off views with which they don't agree; ignoring news that doesn't fit their political narratives, outright false news or twisted news to fit their political narratives, dressing up op-eds and opinions as news, allowing slanderous slurs and bullying day after day against Trump and his supporters, interviewing off-the-wall operatives that professional journalists wouldn't give the time of day and actually grabbing their chilling rhetoric to fill the news hours, running stories from anonymous sources and not checking facts or sources, etc. And over the last few weeks they have mounted a desperate campaign to shame those who recognize their fallen standards hopefully now whirling around, and about to be sucked into, a massive event horizon.

Yes, Biden/Harris are totally incompetent, but it is astonishing and alarming how the conservative media is missing the story here. The change of heart in the liberal media, all at once, all with the same talking points - even the same words - is not a random awakening! They are preparing the way for Hillary Clinton to blow in as the savior of the Democrat Party, a "moderate" who will save the party from too-far-left Biden/Harris, win elections for the party in November, and sweep herself into the Oval Office in 2024 (or before through the back door). Just like missing the sedition in her false Trump/Russia accusations, they are missing her evil, opportunist goals now. Instead of being weary, conservatives are celebrating! Time Magazine, a champion of Hillary Clinton, the same magazine that had its cover of Hillary Clinton as president, ready for the press before election day in 2016!

Meghan Markle appears to be a highly uninformed and ignorant starlet playing at politics. Her slander/libel against President Trump is astonishing, given her abhorrence for the media that does not take her feelings into account. She has publicly slammed President Trump for being a racist and misogynist without a shred of factual evidence. She obviously knows nothing about him: his background, philosophy, platform, accomplishments, etc. She supports BLM, a publicly declared Marxist organization that has resorted to rampaging through U.S. cities, rioting, burning, looting, attacking and even killing, an organization that subscribes to Critical Race Theory that advocates the destruction of white history, accomplishments and culture. She supports a political party that was deeply involved in a vile, attempted coup against President Trump (a lawless coup dreamed up by Hillary Clinton, with Obama in the know, that is now thoroughly proven with concrete evidence); a party that is sliding into intolerable socialism; a party with a proxy, nothing-done, presidential candidate veiled in dementia and mired in deep corruption in Ukraine and China. Stay tuned Harry and Meghan. If your party of choice wins the election, they will come for your riches.

Legislating that arguments, with or without strong language, against general policies and trends as thought crimes or any other crimes with very real adverse consequences against the "offenders" is so odious and frightening, it's hard to imagine this is actually happening in Britain. Meanwhile, hundreds of young, vulnerable British girls were groomed and raped by gangs of individuals who hate the British way of life, standards and mores, while the police knew about the rape gangs but refused to do anything about them for fear of being politically incorrect or called racist. My god, what has happened to Britain? Quite frankly, I am going to ask something that people won't like. I am a woman and believe in meritocracy -- the best person for a job -- man or woman; however, when jobs with authority were not accessible to women, this nonsense did not happen. Do women in positions of high authority have anything to do with these dangerous trends?

The worst of Biden is his open-border policy. The most evil of Biden is his manufactured war against Russia and Russians, who under Putin, have done nothing untoward to the US or West.
The open borders have resulted in millions spilling into the US. It is already destroying the US socially and economically. Clashing cultures, dependency on the government, crowding, criminality; however, as these migrants become citizens, vote, have children who will also vote, they are not just going to fatten the Democrat party, while the leaders continue to live their insular, gated, luxurious lives. They will fundamentally change America into an unrecognizable country.
Biden's evil against Russia for no acceptable reason but surmised as a goal to break apart and plunder the remnants and create a permanent much larger military force. This war is not about Russia's SMO. It started years ago, as Megyn hinted, in 2014 when the US invaded Ukraine on the wings of a coup, the Maidan Coup. Putin relentlessly called for diplomacy to end Ukrainian genocide against Donbass Russians and US/NATO aggression. His calls fell on deaf Western ears, so the SMO was formed to end the genocide militarily (a similar situation to the fight against the same German horrors in WW2 - genocide, nazism and a deeply corrupt government). Meanwhile, hundreds of thousands are being slaughtered on Biden's proxy battlefield as he licks ice cream and vacuously talks about the "great" economy that is imploding all around him.
Jill Biden is culpable too. She claims to be so well academically trained that we must call her "doctor." Yet she enabled her sick, senile husband to become frontman for an evil cabal, knowing his brain was riddled with dementia gaps. Her ambitions for fame and power must know no bounds, aiding her sick husband mount his script-reading platforms to be ridiculed by the world.

This racist card is such a red herring, true to form, with all the lemmings falling in line to address. Let's, just for a moment of adult common-sense, focus on reality. Why on earth is it racist to speculate about an expected child's skin tone? We have wondered about the physical traits of expected children forever. Will it have the mother's blonde curly hair, or the father's dark straight hair? Will the child inherit red hair? What color will the eyes be? Will the child have a light porcelain skin of one parent or dark shiny skin of the other parent? Will the child be handsome, beautiful or talented? Will the child have the tall genes of the father, or the short genes of the mother. My god, maybe such guessing is destined for the woke, cancel-culture list.
In my view, there is only one race in the world, the human race, each member having different variations of melanin, so wondering about skin color or other traits is a totally moot point. It has nothing to do with racism, any more than hoping for a darker child, a talented child, or a smart child.

What to do about lost journalism, the most serious crisis today, because of its dire and long-term damages? Federal legislation creating a code of journalistic ethics, with criminal consequences for those who stray from the code that incorporates the requirements to be objective, not insert opinion as news, check facts, name sources (sources could be anonymous to the public but not to the journalist -- sources that can be proved in a court of law), prohibited from colluding with any political party (collusion with Hillary Clinton/DNC, as was unmasked in leaked emails), report the full news (not leave what political apparatchik reporters don't want the public to know, etc. Journalists can work for media outlets that have political bias, but the bias must be up front and the NEWS AND REPORTING MUST BE FACTUAL AND FULL. I would include in the code, a requirement to challenge guests and talking heads who spout nonsense (aka Maxine Waters, Ilhan Omar, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez). Also, I would like to see legislation prohibiting candidates from lying about either the platforms or personal lives of the opposing candidates, with criminal consequences for those who do lie. I watched Hillary Clinton, during her rallies, outright lie about both Donald Trump's platform and his personal life. It sent shivers down my spine, because those under-informed people listening to her would believe her and vote for her (not having a clue about her dishonest, corrupt history).

So, are you telling us that because they are private companies, they can do what they want? Surely not. What would you say if any other private company, say, advertised that it would no longer be considering any groups, other than white men, for jobs? These private media companies are listed companies and subject to the regulations of the various securities watchdogs. I highly doubt that you would want those securities regulations eliminated because they are companies in the private sector. Facebook, You Tube, etc. can't have it both ways. If they censor their patrons, then they take on responsibility for fair human rights and freedoms. If they are utilities, then they should not be interfering with content. I put it to you that they have become utilities, just like phone companies that would soon go out of business if they attempted to censor phone conversations that their executives do not like.

When America gets involved?!! I am shocked, B&B, that you, of all people, don't know the background and dynamics of these hostilities. America has been involved since it initiated and backed the Maidan Coup. This is America's war, not Putin's war. He is responding to American aggression. And by the way, support for Putin in Russia is over 70%
I am not Russian, Ukrainian or American. But I am sick of the fear-mongering, irrational Putin/Russia hatred, US aggression towards Russia when Russia has done nothing to America (this situation can be looked at as a reverse Cuba missile crisis. Fine for America not to allow unfriendly missiles at its border, but not fine for Russia not to allow unfriendly missiles at its border.) The hypocrisy and ignorance is breathtaking. And extremely surprising coming from You B&B.

This is the first time I have seen your channel. Did you speak out against the EU's collaboration with Joe Biden to wage a manufactured war against Russia that, under Putin, had never done anything untoward to the US, EU, UK, West. Did you speak out against the US, EU, UK, West pouring funds, training and weapons into Ukraine, Biden's chosen battle ground against Russia, to send Ukrainian men to their deaths as proxy fodder for this evil war? Did you speak out against the outrageous, unprecedented sanctions against Russia. I ask because EU sanctions, activities against Russia and participation in death and destruction in Ukraine are the reasons for economic implosion in Europe.
Are the people of Europe now speaking out against the US and Biden for their terrorist involvement in blowing up the Russian gas pipelines, completely eliminating any cooperation between Europe and Russia for gas and other supplies? One of many evil reasons for war against Russia, using Ukraine to do the fighting, is to implode Europe, so it will be forced to trade with the US at much, much higher costs to Europeans.

@anfg7376 2/ One of the problems the US/West says it has against China is its treatment of the Uyghurs, a Muslim population that lives in Xinjiang, an autonomous zone. The US accuses China of carrying out genocide against the Uyghurs. China responds that potential Islamist terrorism is involved. It likely is, but likely not as widespread through the eleven million, plus Uyghurs. No doubt, some have been imprisoned. But here's the kicker: One of the main reasons for Russia's SMO is that the US/West refused Putin's relentless calls for diplomacy to end Ukrainian actual genocide against Donbass Russians. By 2021 over 14,000 Russian men, women and children had been killed in that US-supported, Ukrainian genocide. It continues today. Furthermore, to date, approximately 400,000 Ukrainian men have been KIA/injured as proxy fodder for the evil US war being waged against Russia on Ukrainian killing fields. Not happy to look at this horror and end the war, the US/West keeps calling for more and more destruction in Ukraine. Uyghurs have been treated harshly, no doubt, but what is the lethal rate against the US lethal rate in Ukraine.
Russia under Putin had NEVER - not once - threatened or invaded the US or any Western/NATO country. Its SMO was in response to the Ukrainian genocide against D/Russians, US/NATO aggression at the Russian border, and other Western acts of war, most particularly Britain. Biden had overseen a massive Ukrainian military increase at the Donbass/Russian borders, as he threatened Putin and Russia, censoring information about this US orchestrated military increase. He mounted one of the most depraved, bigoted, discriminatory campaigns of hatred against Putin, Russia and Russians. Behond sick.
Now the US is threatening war against China. Weep for America and god help us all under US reckless danger.

Frankly, I highly doubt the death count in Gaza. The modus operandi of Hamas, Hezbollah et al terrorists has always been to exaggerate losses and even stage events to publicize themselves as victims. Biden has done no favors to Israel. He has consistently been cowardly pro-Hamas, a Dearborn vote grifter, and a war monger, using Israel, as he used Ukraine, to start yet another disastrous wider, US hegemonic war, with the potential for another angle against Russia. Pure unadulterated evil.
If Biden had not been palling around with terrorist clerics in Iran, the vile Hamas invasion and atrocities against Israeli civilians would never have happened, and not one Gazan would have perished as collateral damage. Terrorism must never be tolerated or mitigated in civilized society, not for any reason, not even collateral damage. The collateral damage lies squarely on the shoulders of Hamas and its supporters.

"All three lads," how down-market British! Three ladish, schoolboys, one busy treating the Nazi Azov, exactly what he signed up to do. Meanwhile, reported (not confirmed) among surrendered Azovstal forces, US Admiral Eric Olson (photo of him surrendering), British LC John Bailey and four NATO instructors. Boris Johnson, Joe Biden, Jens Stoltenberg, what were they doing in Azovstal, Ukraine, a NON-NATO country?

@billydog1954 Literacy or illiteracy says so much about a person. Meantime, neither Biden, nor his VP were elected.
Orange clown, Dingodongo? Ever wonder why CEOs wouldn't support your "orange clown"? Because he is adamantly against the exploitative outsourcing/insourcing of cheap labor that keeps wages down, destroys jobs, decimates manufacturing and turns portions of, or whole cities, into hell holes. CEOs want the status quo to continue filling their already bulging bank accounts on the backs of cheap labor. This applies to all Western countries today. How's your job, Dingodongo? Secure? High wages? Likely to be shipped off to China? Or do you not work at all? Keep yourself on other people's money - the taxpayers?
President Trump made great strides in addressing this destructive job situation. He made it more difficult for companies to export jobs or import cheap labor. Biden has cancelled all those successes. About Biden. Is he your "Dementia Blue Clown"? He has created $trillions in just the short time he has been squatting in the White House. Do you have any idea about the destruction that is on track to cause for people in not only America, but also other countries, including Australia -- yes, and you.

Scott Ritter, you are off-course on Trump. He's the one, along with all the envoys who have been messing it up, with wacky mineral deals, threats against Russia and BRICS, contradictory statements, statements that are simply not true, taking the time to humiliate Zelensky instead of simply ignoring him, then coming up with a 30-day ceasefire, even with statements about re-arming Ukraine, that Russia has been explicitly clear that it will not accept.
There is absolutely no point in starting a "tennis" game with the first serve being unacceptable, when Trump can simply agree to Russia's winning ball immediately.
How?
End all funds, weapons, training, participation for Ukraine, order NATO and all US military and associated military personnel out of Ukraine. The war will come to an immediate end. Ukraine is no longer in a position to fight.
Trump's refusal to admit that this has been a US proxy war is at the heart of the delays. He appears not to have the strength to do that, because he's been side tracked in trying to win, as thousands more lose their lives each day.

There is no sorry for Joe Biden. He played a huge role in maneuvering himself into the WH. What he and Nuland, Obama et al have done to Russia, using Ukraine as a proxy after plundering and destroying it, is beyond evil. This wretched, relic of a man's wave of toxic, irrational, unsubstantiated hatred for Putin, Russia and Russians is beyond depraved and wicked. His calling for more arms for Ukraine for more death & destruction, instead of negotiating for peace, as any decent leader would do, is beyond sickening.

Very interesting and inspirational.
The US Democrat Party has morphed from a classical liberal party, with an expectation of debate, into a hybrid marxist-totalitarian-fascist party without possibility of debate.
There can be no debate over whether to destroy a country with, say, three million migrants versus five million migrants, along with far-too-high legal immigration.
There can be no debate whether to support over 500,000 KIA for a manufactured US hegemonic, proxy war against Russia versus 1,000,000 KIA for such an evil war.
In other words there can be no debate about degrees of destruction and evil. Only action to stop them.
I agree completely with the end goals in the Middle East, particularly the immediate Israeli/ Palestinian crisis, being first strength, then better lives for all.
A hurdle not mentioned is the tiny, already overcrowded, geographical space for two exponentially growing populations.

Censorship blocks democracy. It should have stopped Trudeau. Trudeau suddenly disappeared from a toni school where he was teaching before he entered politics. There were rumors, hearsay and gossip as to why, but the public did not generally know the facts. Then a father spoke out during Tr.'s penultimate leadership run. He had an inappropriate s. liaison w/ a minor student of less-than 15 years old. He subsequently had her sign a very lucrative non-disclosure agreement. As her father said, he signed no NDA and thought the public should know. His story was published in a main Vancouver newspaper.
Canadians, who are known for being polite and nice, voted for him anyway. What happened to their ethics and "niceness"?Shame on the vocal Canadian me-too women! Were Canadians blatantly ignorant? Were they informed but didn't care about decency and ethics - more interested in government jobs and chain migration? Or were they simply in the dark, because the information was not widely disseminated across Canada in media that received handsome payouts from Trudeau? Uninformed or not, how on earth did any intelligent Canadian imagine a former skateboarder and part-time drama teacher would have the expertise and capability to lead a country?
Proactively hiding these facts acts to block democracy, just as surely as the obfuscation and treachery against his former AG, an extremely competent, intelligent woman whom the Canadian me-too woman also ignored.

@texaswunderkind I agree that Indian immigrants are hard working, smart and innovative. For those who can afford it, education in India is streets ahead of education in North America for sure and likely most of Europe.
Having said that, what do you think will happen to a country that allows continuous annual, legal net immigration of between 300,000 and 500,000, not even counting the number of illegal immigrants? (US and Canada) Complete social and economic breakdown, by sheer numbers alone - worse with unvetted unsuitable migrants, unsuitable legal immigrants dependent on the government, with massive additional education and healthcare costs, numerous additional family members, just because they are family - nothing to do with meritocracy.
Also, do you agree with the masses of Indians that are imported into the US on special visas for work, as American workers in those jobs have to train the new Indians in their jobs in order to claim any severance pay. This is evil in my view (one of the cases for rehauling corporate models and value assessments). President Trump was making headway in stopping this vile practice, all reversed by the Biden Regime.
Is that what you want for you and your family?

@texaswunderkind Immigration has become a euphemism for one-way migration to the West. One can argue that, considering the involvement of neoliberal, globalist, woke NGOs in the massive increase in illegal migration, that it is the largest ethnic cleansing attempt in human history. How long do you think that can continue before complete social and economic breakdown of European/North American countries? We are already witnessing symptoms of breakdown.
For immigration to work, it must be an equal, two-way affair, based on meritocracy. If, say, two people want to move from Country A to Country B, given language skills, financial self-sufficiency, education and career skills, as well as a promise to abide by the standards and laws of the new country, they can do so, as long as two people from Country B, with the same qualifications, want to move to Country A. If not, then it is a no go.
Such a system would dramatically curb immigration (National and world population growth are among the worst crises we face today), ensure the best economic contributors are on the move, prevent immediate population growth, and make the middle class of unpopular countries so d. mad, they would insist on improvements, eliminating the desire to emigrate in the first place.

I am 99% sure that one of those photos with obviously staged, un-torn bodies around carefully placed non-war garbage was at the same location that Gonzalo Lira and the others outed as a movie-set location. The giveaway? Green and white building in the background, blurred but still visible, and same fencing. Also, yesterday, another staged war report from the same location, with the actor, who has been used before, in clean, starched uniform, with the same telephone pole in the background.

Russia did not take Georgia. Russia did go into Georgia to protect the Russian enclaves in Georgia. At the time there was a US affiliated Georgian president, and his troops committed violent atrocities against those Russian civilians, not unlike the Ukrainian genocide against the Donbass Russians.
One of the key reasons for Russia's activating its SMO was to end the Ukrainian genocide against the Donbass Russians, let alone the US/NATO acts of war against Russia from Ukraine, a non-NATO country.
For Russia, the war is existential. Biden has gone out of his way to vilify Putin, Russia and Russians in an attempt to justify his war against Russia. The EU, NATO, West have been loudly and explicitly clear about the goal to tear Russia and Russians apart. Of course Russia is fighting back - for its very existence, just as Israel is fighting back for its existence.
Crimea had been Russian since 1784. It was not Ukrainian before that. Ukraine did not exist. In1954, Khrushchev arbitrarily transferred administration of Crimea to Ukraine SSR, without the approval of Crimea and without regard for its Russian demographic. He did it to gain support from the elite of Ukraine. In 2014, Crimea voted overwhelmingly (97% with an 83% turnout) to be repatriated to Russia.
The Ukraine war is nothing less than an evil US, manufactured, hegemonic war against Russia, using Ukrainian killing fields and unwilling Ukrainian conscripts as proxy fodder to die for this evil US/NATO/West proxy war.
The ground work for the war was laid by Obama, with Biden as his point man in Ukraine behind the Maidan Coup to oust a duly elected Ukrainian president because he favored friendly trade relations with Russia.
The US had no more bushiness interfering in Ukraine as a foothold for war against Russia than Hamas has in Gaza as a foothold for war against Israel.😢😢

Mueller's investigation was illegal, Strzok's "insurance policy," to get Trump if he won, all based on lies made up by democrats in an attempted coup. For a special counsel investigation to be legal, there has to be a crime to investigate. There was no crime on President Trump's part, just an entirely fabricated story of Trump/Russian collusion and a phoney investigation to dig up a crime. Meanwhile, we have known for a long time now, with ample evidence, that the Mueller investigation was the tail end of the attempted coup, planned and orchestrated by highly distasteful and stupid democrats. Stupid? Indeed, we all know about their illegal activities, and they backed the most corrupt politician in U.S. history, Hillary Clinton -- also part of the coup -- and an enabler of serial, sexual abuse to boot. Now that has to be beyond stupid.

It would be extremely foolish of the royals to allow Meghan Markle back into the royal fold to represent the Queen. They didn't do their homework by allowing her in, in the first place. (He could have married her and left, without addition titles or royal privilege). She had already, without knowledge, common sense, or reason, trashed the president of Britain's greatest ally, the U.S.A. Her highly ignorant, defamatory innuendos followed her into the Royal Family. Now she's supporting an organization that is in the thick of rioting, attacking, killing, burning, trashing, destroying, looting and occupying. Royal doors should be closed to her. I hope he goes back to Britain on his own, but he too has cooked his goose as a representative of the Queen.

Accusations of racism are a tool of division for ignorant, woke neoliberals. MM is an ignorant, woke neoliberal. Before marrying Harry, she publicly accused President Trump of racism and misogyny without proof, reason or intelligence. Just the epithets she likely heard on CNN/MSNBC. I was always astounded that the Queen allowed the couple to represent her, after those public insults from MM, a third-tier TV actress in Toronto, Canada, not known for world TV hits. She had insulted the head of Britain's closest ally. Did the royal courtiers miss that significant event and not advise the Queen? If the Queen had allowed the marriage on the same terms for Princess Margaret if she married Peter Townsend - no royal titles, engagements or benefits - things would have turned out differently. H&M would have known the deal before marriage - non-working royals with no titles or benefits. More likely she would have walked, because titles and benefits were what she was after. Engagements as well, but she thought engagements would be like Hollywood red-carpet, look-at-me engagements, not work and engagements with the people of Britain and the Commonwealth.

The main reason for the Russian SMO is to end the 8-year, US-backed Ukrainian Azov genocide of Donbass Russian civilians. To date, over 14,000 Russian men, women and children have been killed in the genocide. Putin asked the US/Ukraine/West to enter into diplomatic negotiations to end the genocide. They refused. In fact, with the backing of Biden/Nuland, Ukraine amassed a larger military presence at the Donbass, with the intention to invade Donetsk and Luhansk that had been guaranteed independent status by the Minsk Agreement, signed but not honored by Ukraine. Putin had no option but to form the SMO to unilaterally end the genocide. He did what any decent leader would do, given the refusal of Ukraine, US and West to avoid war and negotiate the end of the genocide.

The NatWest Group has a history of inept management, scandal, and corruption. It grew, not from astute banking, but through a complex labyrinth of mergers, acquisitions and divestments. It has a history of CEOs without the expertise to grasp and understand all areas of banking. Alison Rose appears to have been another CEO, short on banking expertise. She appears to have been an "equity" appointment. Equity in wokespeak means equal outcomes for special groups, without regard for meritocracy versus equal opportunities with merit. She apparently didn't even grasp one of the most sacrosanct rules of banking - client confidentiality.
The holier-than-thou tagline of this climate bank (Diversity and Inclusion) left out the full CRT tagline of "Diversity, Equity, Inclusion." Perhaps she didn't want to highlight that she was likely an equity appointment. The tagline, "Diversity, Equity, Inclusion," originated as a tagline for CRT (Critical Race Theory). Proponents of that theory veered to hollering the tagline to hide the acronym, CRT, when they realized decent, honorable, ethical people were disgusted by the CRT acronym.
Banks must focus on banking, finance and investing. Not as bullying watchdogs of false green agendas of climate change, woke culture and environmental dictates.

GW Hayduke I am astonished that you are unaware of the SPYING that went on against President Trump and Trump campaign associates, in addition to the attempted coup based on a fabricated false dossier. Some of the spying was triggered by false information fed to the FISA court to obtain spying warrants; some of it independent of the FISA warrants. The spying is an essential aspect of the whole sordid sedition. Meanwhile, the investigation was also phoney and never should have happened. There was no doubt about the attempted coup. Many involved in the investigation were involved in the attempted coup. They were investigating an attempted coup carried out by the investigators themselves. One of the best books on the Trump Russia hoax is Gregg Jarrett's book, "Witch Hunt." He's a lawyer and documented the information impeccably. And even that book doesn't tell the whole story, because so much more evidence has now been released. I urge you to read that book to be clear on the spying and other seditious activities. There was NEVER any significant security risk. The whole thing was fabricated. We always suspected, but now we have the evidence to prove, that Hillary Clinton initiated the vile and seditious plot in order to detract from her email scandal. We have known from the beginning that she paid for the false dossier, laundering the funds through dodgy lawyers, Perkins Coie and Fusion GPS, but we didn't have the proof that she actually initiated the plot. Now we know. We have the proof. We also have the proof that, at a minimum Obama and Biden knew about the plot but said nothing, at a maximum were involved themselves.
You know, it doesn't matter your political affiliation, what has been done to President Trump is beyond appalling, the most vile and serious crime in U.S. politics. If any one of the Democrat presidential hopefuls had had the guts to admit the truth, condemn the sedition, demand that the culprits be brought to justice, and that the party be cleaned up before moving on, that person would have had an enormous chance of being president in 2020, but not one of them had the guts or ethics. They all fell in line with the lemmings, supporting or denying the sedition. It is appalling that many in the country are now supporting the return of such corruption to power. The plot against the president should be enough, in a decent country with the rule of law, to ensure they would not be returned to power, let alone the slide to socialism, critical race theory, globalism, open borders and regime-change policies that party advocates.

@jackiewilson6249 Why don't you tell us, Jackie Wilson, please, the names of the companies, the charges against the president, the political affiliations of those companies, the reasons for the lawsuits, and the status of the lawsuits? If you cannot do that with concrete, actual evidence, then apologize for your comment. Vote Trump into prison? For what? State the charges. Don't bother with Russian collusion, because there was no Russian collusion on the part of Trump. That has been proven with evidence from the very people who were accusing him of it. There was however Russian interference on the part of Clinton. Now proven with concrete evidence. Hillary Clinton initiated the Trump/Russia false accusations. She paid for the phoney dossier, laundering the funds through her colluding law firm, Perkins Coie and Fusian GPS, a political smear company, that in turn hired a disreputable former British spy, Christopher Steele, who concocted a total false dossier used to fraudulently obtain FISA spying warrants and wrongly accuse President Trump. The source of the false crap in the dossier, a Ukrainian in the US who worked for the left-wing think tank, the Brookings Institute, the same man that was on the CIA watchlist for being a Russian spy. About the Brookings Institute: Adam Schiff's witnesses in his phoney fabricated impeachment were individuals associated with the Brookings Institute, all witnesses of whom, under cross examination admitted they knew of no indictable Trump offenses and that their testimony was all based on assumptions and hearsay. Their objections had nothing to do with illegalities; everything to do with their not liking President Trump's policies. People, such as you, Jackie Wilson, are ruining the legitimacy of Social Media, posting and spreading nasty, false, libelous innuendos intended to demean, without a shred of evidence.

@Kreegrrr Guess what? I don't watch TV. I haven't watched TV in approximately 20 years. I recommend that everyone get rid of their TVs. Life is much better without them. I got rid of cable/TV for the following reasons: The outrageous ISP costs and lousy service; sick and tired of watching opinions dressed up as news; refused to any longer pay for bundled channels in order to prop up non-viable and lousy channels that would go bankrupt without the bundling; appallingly bad programming. Recently utterly fake and false news would be added to my list. So, far from watching one source, I watch loads of sources, but I am discerning. I do not watch sources that are obviously spouting fake news. The loss of professional journalism is one of the most serious crises we face today, so dire the consequences. Without professional journalism, there can be no functioning democracy. Outlets such as CNN, MSNBC, the Washington Post, the New York Times, are nothing less than activists and mouthpieces for the Democrat Party. How do I know, if I don't watch TV.? Their pronouncements and programming are constantly featured on the internet to point out their corruption and fake news. I use tons of sources, and make a point of going to original sources to find out the real facts.
Unfortunately for you, Nossgrr, in saying there was no coup has shown us that you have no idea what has happened. Either you watch the fake news and believe it, or you don't keep up to date at all. There was definitely an attempted coup. That is not supposition or hearsay. The evidence is now massive. Carter Page was illegally spied on with a view to getting to Trump. The FISA warrants were fraudulently obtained, using a false dossier. The FISA court was defrauded, and the first culprit to be indicted, Kevin Clineman, a lawyer, has pleaded guilty to altering information in order to falsely obtain a FISA warrant. Paul Manafort was found guilty of financial fraud that had absolutely nothing to do with Trump, albeit, they went after Manafort in an effort to get Trump. The concrete written evidence (from released documents) of the plot to frame General Flynn is now so overwhelming that both the prosecutors and defence asked that the case be dropped. Unfortunately, a politically biased and apparently corrupt judge has decided that he is prosecutor and judge (something that is a no-no and unacceptable in Western justice systems) has decided to stall on dropping the case. What has been done to General Flynn is so egregious and vile, it sends chills down one's spine. And if you support it, beware; if they can do it to General Flynn, they can come for you. Shame on you for not finding out the details about the case, because the corruption around it is pivotal in this election to make sure it never happens again. Shame on you for admonishing me (who does tons of research from tons of sources) on an assumption that I drink my news from one source, when it turns out you apparently have no idea what has happened and no idea that evidence of the framing of General Flynn and the attempted coup against President Trump is out there and has been for a long time now.
If you are a voter, it is extremely serious that you are either unaware of these details, or that you are aware but deliberately choose not to believe them, because it is imperative for a successful and decent country that such seditions is prosecuted and totally unacceptable, whatever your political leaning.

Definitely not fit! Chosen because his dementia has created a malleable fool for the wicked hippies-in-suits, devoid of experience, calling the shots. The horror in Afghanistan revealed a very unpleasant symptom of dementia: wilful, angry determination. Extremely dangerous. Turns out his hippies can't control him all the time. He wanted a celebration on the anniversary of 9/11 and decided to get the troops out, come hell or high water. He completely forgot about the Americans, Afghan collaborators and assistants, allied personnel, military dogs, $billions in military equipment - just get the troops out for my celebration, as he bullied President Ghani to back up his lies that the Taliban were not a threat.
Not least, even without the dementia, he would not have had the intellectual capacity or courage to weigh whether the US should actually leave Afghanistan, despite the conventional wisdom to leave. In leaving, the US has given up on the women and children of Afghanistan and put them in grave danger; failed in a mission to build Afghanistan as an economic and social going-concern; lost the close proximity to keep extremist, Islamist terrorists in check; handed over precious minerals and trade to China; created a huge, contiguous geopolitical arena for US enemies; and lost a military foothold to respond quickly to threats in a difficult part of the world

The Brazilian protests are much different from Jan 6. One similarity is that both are demonstrations against rigged elections and the loss of democracy. Immediately after the election in Brazil, hundreds of thousands demonstrated - in fact so many, it looked like millions. That many demonstrators leads one to conclude definite rigging. Orders went out that no one was allowed to speak about it. Interestingly, Bill Burns, head of the CIA, visited Brazil days before the election.
Difference is that the storming of the buildings in Brazil was organized. The demonstration in the capitol was spontaneous (although, likely, a government hand in it - Ray Epps, Capitol Police opening the doors, Pelosi's nefarious actions, etc.)

@sammyo2583 Of course Trump did not say that. I said it. He is, however, adamantly against war. I figured out where @yfelwulf is from and what he enjoys, then responded sarcastically, because everything I said about President Trump and his return rally is fact, not delusion. @yfelwulf is likely someone who is exploited by the mainstream fake news. Without exception, everytime I have taken on someone who makes such remarks (without reason, intelligence or facts) about Trump or his supporters, I have discovered they know absolutely nothing about his political platform, the reasons for his goals, or his accomplishments. They just hurl back slander, libel and epithets they have heard on the corrupt media. Also, without exception, I have found they know nothing about the platform of the Democrat Party and its dire consequences. For those not in the US, the same applies in connection with the woke liberals vs. the conservatives in their respective countries.

Isn't the right of self determination a UN right?
Yesterday, someone on Twitter posted a synopsis of the break up of, and civil wars in, former Yugoslavia. Found it so interesting, I stayed up quite late re-reading the section on Yugoslavia in an incredible book "Savage Continent," by Keith Lowe, about civil war, war crimes, and ethnic cleansing in Europe during and AFTER WW2 (not including Nazi Germany). I had a vague understanding of questions about US interference in the breakup of Yugoslavia and the resulting civil wars, but no idea about how much interference. Another prime player in the civil wars: Germany. Mainly on the side of Croatia that wanted out and independence, and against Serbia. How fickle is politics. Purely opportunistic and so often, lethal.

I would rather be called a Putin supporter. There is no need to be an apologist. Biden/US and the West waged war against Russia for no acceptable reason. The history timeline of events and players leaves no other conclusion. Russia activated its SMO as a defense against US/Western/NATO threats, genocide against Donbass Russians, acts of war, including sanctions, and not least, Liz Truss's reckless declaration of war to wipe Russia off the map. The war is not about Ukraine. The US is simply using Ukraine and Ukrainian men to die for its dirty war, pretending that it is fighting to "safeguard Ukraine's freedom and democracy." Ukraine is the most despotic, corrupt, anti-democratic country in Europe and one of the worst in the world. Biden, and van der Leyen screech their intentions to tear Russia and Russians apart "to the last Ukrainian, as long as it takes," they howl! Pure unadulterated evil. Of course Russia is fighting back. It is existential for Russians.

Romney, a frontman in the ruination of private equity for the benefit of the one percent. A corporate vulture, who swept into targeted corporations on wings of massive debt, not to manage back to health with an exit and reasonable return after a few turnaround years, but targeted to slice, dice, fire, outsource and shred, with a quick up-front exit, pockets of debt-supplied cash and stock, leaving the huge debt on the table for the struggling corporate carcass to pay. And he's rewarded with a profile in courage? How twisted is that!

Wow! I just worry that their plot may be two pronged. Get Biden and oust him for classified documents as a prelude for blocking Trump for classified documents, ignoring the facts that completely exonerate Trump (Democrat voters too dumb or two devious to grasp the differences in the two cases).
Meanwhile on Jan. 5, 2017, Obama held a meeting at the WH. The collection of corrupt democrats at the meeting, including Biden, plotted how to frame an innocent man, knowing he was innocent, General Flynn, exactly, as you said, Tucker, because he know the intel community and planned to streamline it. He knew about the Ukraine corruption. Biden was particularly proactive at that meeting, suggesting the Logan Act to get Flynn, a stupid suggestion typical of Biden's low intellect. They didn't use the Logan Act, of course, but they got General Flynn anyway, Comey went after him with vile pride, after Obama ended the meeting telling his assembled seditious plotters to "do it by the book."
How do we know all this? From their own meeting notes and Susan Rice's CYA note she tapped out on her computer, both later revealed to the public.
Biden's open borders have, in my view, already destroyed America. He is also culpable for hundreds of thousands of deaths in Ukraine, but in America's mind those deaths will eventually fade into oblivion. Putin will beat the US in Ukraine. The millions of migrants who have flowed across Biden's open borders, by sheer numbers alone, aside from the criminal and drug elements, will result in the social and economic implosion of America, either by unrest and chaos, or through the voting booths. One just has to be aware of what is happening in the UK, Sweden, Germany and France to know what is on track to happen in America.

Millions died in WW2 fighting against genocide, nazism, and a deeply corrupt dictator
Unbelievably, the US/West has now chosen to SUPPORT those same horrors, which Russia is fighting against.
In 2014 the US initiated a bloody coup in Ukraine, the Maidan Coup, to oust a duly elected Ukrainian president because he favored friendly trade relations with Russia. That coup spilled into civil war that in turn spilled into Ukrainian genocide against Donbass Russians. By the start of 2021 over 14,000 Russian men, women and children had perished in that genocide. The Russian SMO was formed to end that genocide after the US/West refused Putin's relentless calls, since 2014, for diplomacy to end the it.
The largest group of Ukrainian forces shelling civilians in the Donbass have been the Azov forces, committed to neo-nazism, trained by the West. Nazism has not just oozed through the Ukrainian forces, but it has also infiltrated the Ukrainian government and Ukrainian society as a whole.
When the Azov forces emerged from their dungeons in the Azovstal Steel Plant to surrender to the Russians, the Russians made them remove their tops to photograph their tattoos. Their tattoos were of nazi symbols, Hitler and associates and Bandera, the Ukrainian Nazi idol. This process played out, live, on the internet, as it happened. The internrt is filled with videos of Nazi activities,, events , flags and symbols in Ukraine, but not in the MSM.
The US is not supporting freedom in Ukraine. Zelensky has banned all political opposition and elections, with dire results for anyone who dares to oppose him, including imprisonment and in some cases, torture, even disappearance. Gonzalo Lira, a Chilian- American reporting the facts from Kharkiv has been spirited away and disappeared. The SBU filmed his arrest. Zelensky has a kill list. I know of two independent Western reporters on that list. A Canadian woman and an American commentator. A high Ukrainian official official has admitted being behind the assassination of three journalists, one being a you girl Darya Dugina.
Next time you think Bout hitting the streets in anger, learn what you are supporting first. The allied of WW2 must be squirming in their graves. The US/West is supporting the horrors against which they died fighting.

If not all Democrats are the same, then those who don't support the recent dangerous absurdities, corruption, upside-down twisted politics, socialism, and an ATTEMPTED COUP of the Dems. cannot remain as Dems, if they have an ounce of ethics left in them. Astonishing that this alleged opposing group supported and voted for Hillary Clinton, the most corrupt politician in U.S. history, and an enabler of serial sexual abuse to boot. Why on earth did the group, especially the women, vote for her?! Is it because they gleaned their news from CNN and were never taught history, political science in school (didn't know about her being fired as a lawyer, Whitewater, Cattle Futures, Travel Gate, continuous lies, Vince Foster, campaign violations, actions against Bill Clinton's victims, Middle East disaster, let alone independent server, lying to congress, tampering with and destroying subpoenaed evidence, paying for a false dossier to use in an attempted coup and pay for play through a slush fund masquerading as a charitable foundation)? Is it because they go no further than CNN to be informed about current affairs? Whatever the reasons, they are not pretty for them, their families or the country.

You guys should read Gregg Jarrett's book, "Witch Hunt." Although you and most of your viewers already know tons of the details of the Russian Hoax (too soft a word), he lays out what happened (timelines, coup-mongers, corrupt journalists, outright lies, etc.) in chilling, impeccably documented detail. So chilling, I've had to put the book down every now and then, to take a breath and collect thoughts. I'm on the chapter outlining the vicious, psychopathic plot against General Flynn. Odious is not strong enough to describe what those second-rate, civil-servant, seditious coup mongers did to him. If he's not exonerated, then justice in America no longer exists.

Let this fool open the first account, either to compensate African Americans for past grievances (he appears to be of mixed race), which of course he and almost all whites living today had nothing to do with, or to compensate whites for the horror being done to them now, before it gets too expensive for him.
The mark of real leaders is the intelligence, common sense, and insight to deal with the NOW and move forward, instead of being mired down in past events that happened before our lifetimes.
The NOW, of course, includes the harm being done black on black in Africa in the midst of vile civil wars, corruption, past and current slavery, and even in the U.S. as left liberals settle for the bottom, keeping many African Americans as victims dependent on the state instead of encouraging them and lifting them up to be self sufficient.
So many African Americans today are well educated, successful and wealthy. They have little time for past reparations. They would much rather earn and save for the future of their children.

People have to understand that since Trump became president, there have been three parties in Congress: Trump Republicans for the people and America; RINOs, Republicans in Name Only, gutless wonders, part of the swamp, buddies with the Deep Swamp dwellers, and implicated in lobbying and other get-rich schemes (think Paul Ryan); Democrats in the inner slime circle of the Deep Swamp, surviving on get-rich schemes and skimming taxpayers, many, such as Pelosi, Shift, Nadler, Wasserman Schultz, and Schumer, deeply corrupt, without morals, ethics or care for ordinary Americans, sniffing up Soros's ar**

Meghan's goal is to be a liberal, woke, activist; and she appears to be dragging Harry along -- easy pickings. Frankly, I don't think either one of them, especially Meghan, has the savvy to be a successful political activist. She's already put her foot in it a number of times. Good riddance from the Royal Family, I say, unless they can be reined in to do their job in an adult, mature, professional way, within the bounds of royal constriction. No conflicts of interest. No political activism or public political opinions at all. If they continue that within the royal institution, it will have the potential to bring the Royal Family down.

General Flynn, so astute, logical, straightforward, courageous, humane, a leader. Listening to him, here, on American Thought Leaders, I sit with admiration for him and outrage at what the deeply corrupt Obama Administration and hold-over Obama civil servants did to this wise and decent general whose life experiences, responsibilities and military service, Obama, Biden & their minions can't even grasp. Let us never forget Biden's proactive participation in that Jan 5, 2017, meeting at the White House, along with Obama, Comey, Brennan, Rice, Yates and likely Strzok, as they plotted how to frame this innocent man, knowing he was innocent. Now that depraved accuser, Biden, is almost entrenched into the White House after stealing an election. We need people such as General Flynn with us in the battle to beat the the tyranny lurking in a Biden Regime. I understand General Flynn's apparent double-sided thoughts about President Trump. On one side, admiration that we all have for President Trump, another steely courageous leader with humanity for the working man; and on the other side, hesitation about a man who promptly fired him in his hour of need and after Trump's own enemies viciously trapped him. I have advocated for General. Flynn from the beginning and wish him the very best, with his family, now that he is free from the clutches of Biden and his seditious puppeteers, minions, and goebbelsian parrots in the media.

@amandasparks3897 I urge you to research the keto diet. The internet (YOUTUBE) is full of top heart surgeons and other top doctors, specialists and biochemists who are warning about sugar and carbohydrates being the cause of heart disease, arteriosclerosis, and other chronic disease -- WITH A HUGE AMOUNT OF EVIDENCE. If you are interested in "how not to die" (absurd tag line -- one certainty in our lives is how we are all going to die), you will do this research. For me personally, I have been following more or less closely, a keto diet (meat, dairy products, and vegetables, fruit (easy on the fruit) for years. I am physically so much younger and more active (including very difficult athletic endeavors - for privacy won't mention which, but one of the most difficult of all of them) than others my age.

Conservative here: Let's get real. Instagram is not the cause of any depression or self-body shaming. The teens/tweens do that to themselves, the causes for their doing it to themselves, a topic for another thread. So what's the solution in the eyes of those who blame Instagram. Stop people with great in-shape bodies from posting pictures of themselves? Restrict Instagram for overweight individuals, so as not to shame overweight viewers? Encourage those with no self-esteem to post on instagram, lest anyone with great self-esteem send a viewer into self-loathing and depression?
I do not have a perfect body. Most of us don't. I have never been the prettiest person in the room. Most of us haven't. I have never been the most successful person. Most of us have not. Seeing beautiful or successful women or men does not send me running to a "safe space," or into a dark room to sulk in a depression. I enjoy looking at beauty - men and women - human beauty, along with beautiful nature and aspects of life. We are DNA wired to admire and enjoy beauty.
Politicians should be focusing on Facebook's/Instagram's censorship of business and political discussions, or on devious sexual postings, extremely serious problems for society today, not on how teens with no self-esteem react to Instagram. If politicians want to help teens, then focus on the breakdown of families and schools.
Wow! Never thought I would be defending Facebook!

Boris Johnson's most egregious, evil lies have been about Ukraine and his depraved involvement in Biden's manufactured war against Russia, using Ukrainian men to die for his evil intentions.
His war against Russia was not started in response to Russia's SMO in Ukraine. It started before the SMO. Johnson's foreign secretary, Liz Truss, threatened, BEFORE the SMO, that Britain would target any individual in the Kremlin who had anything to do with the continuation of Russia. An outright, chilling, reckless declaration of war against Russia that, under Putin, has never threatened or done anything untoward to Britain, Europe or the US.
The SMO was formed to defeat the Ukrainian Nazi Azov genocide against Donbass Russians after the US, UK, EU, West refused Putin's calls for diplomacy to end the genocide. Instead, horrifyingly, the West has chosen to support genocide, nazism, and a deeply corrupt dictatorship in Ukraine, the very same horrors against which millions died fighting Germany in WW2.
The war against Russia in Ukraine is all about generating Western MIC profits and a vile plan to tear Russia apart for no reason other than to ease a colonization of the remnants to plunder Russia's resources and manage more pliable surviving populations under a WEF world dictatorship. Pure, unadulterated evil!

These fools voted for this chilling, ignorant, uninformed, dangerous warmonger, Liz Truss, devoid of any leadership skills, or experience in finance and economics to fix Britain's economic implosion, for which she, herself, as foreign secretary, was greatly responsible, as she pushed for more and more sanctions and war against Russia that have sharply turned to destroy Britain. They voted for her, because she is a fellow war hawk -- too insular and wrongly focused to grasp the harmful consequences to Britain.
The manufactured war and sanctions against Russia, that under Putin has never done anything untoward to Britain, are PURE EVIL. Their invented excuse that Putin is evil because he invaded Ukraine is vile, transparent scapegoating and gaslighting. Liz Truss declared war on Russia BEFORE its Special Military Operation. She threatened that Britain would target anyone in the Kremlin who had anything to do with the continuation of Russia. A reckless, dangerous declaration of war and intent to wipe Russia off the map. AFTER Liz Truss's abominable behavior during a meeting with Lavrov, Putin recognized Donetsk and Luhansk as independent states. They asked for Russia's help to end the eight-year, Ukrainian Nazi Azov genocide against them. Given that Putin's and Lavrov's relentless calls for diplomacy to end the genocide and US/NATO aggression had fallen on deaf Western ears, Russia formed the SMO to end the genocide.
Instead of diplomacy, the UK/Liz Truss (and West) chose to side with that Ukrainian genocide, nazism, and the most corrupt, tyrannical government in Europe that allows no political opposition, as its leader begs for money and weapons in Zoom room in the name of "freedom and democracy." Astounding when one considers the millions who died in WW2 fighting against the very same horrors in Germany. Such an evil path for any leader or country is bound to end very badly.

@majdakisel2261 Pure unadulterated evil, with Biden heading the evil. He started this madness (egged on by both Democrat, Republican, EU, UK, UKR hungry warmongers, without a second thought about the hundreds of thousands being killed, all for MIC profits, US plunder and US hegemony) Yes, the buck stops at the top, in this case, an old intellectually impaired man riddled with dementia, as the world looks on w/ millions supporting the madness and doing nothing to stop it.

BEFORE the SMO, Liz Truss screeched on British TV that Britain would target anyone in the Kremlin who had anything to do with the CONTINUATION of Russia. An ignorant, reckless declaration of war against Russia, and plan to wipe Russia off the map. Her subsequent uninformed, threatening behavior towards Sergey Lavrov in Moscow was a trigger. He was disgusted. Within, I believe, just two days Putin recognized Donetsk and Luhansk as independent states. They asked for Russia's help to end the Ukrainian genocide against them. Given the US/Wests refusal of Putin's calls for diplomacy, the SMO was formed to end that genocide and US/NATO aggression. Biden had backed a huge increase in Ukrainian military at the Donbass border, close to Russia's border, as he goaded Russia to invade and predicted the invasion publicly.
This whole saga played out on the Internet, filmed, live, as it happened. SHAME ON THE US, BIDEN AND THE WEST.

Any good efficiency guru would advise to check emails only at certain times. For most of us at work, in the morning, maybe at midday, depending on the job, and in the evening. The other piece of excellent advice is to refrain from "government email waste." What is "government email waste"? A time-wasting practice of insecurity mostly carried out in government organizations, because they don't have to produce revenues and rely on ever-dripping, golden, taxpayer, money taps. The practice of copying up to ten people on emails and asking for feedback. Ask anyone for feedback, and they will find tons of feedback. So time taken by ten people to read the original email asking for feedback; time to collect and tap out the feedback in a reply and sending it (often with the other nine receiving copies); next, the person who asked ten people for feedback has to read all the feedback from the ten people; assess it and incorporate the changes; on and on; then before you know it the day has gone without completing the task. If a person is not able to complete a task or project without having to ask for feedback, then that person is not fit for the job.

I'm not sure that the salacious lies in the phoney Steele dossier even originated in Russia. That was just part of coup-mongers' false narrative. It seems to me, the lies apparently originated from anonymous, vacuous diatribes in a commentary thread and from Clinton smear agents, Blumenthal and Shearer.
An aspect of supposed election influencing that doesn't seem to have occurred to many is that living-room chatter, opinions, and debates have now moved to the internet. Opinions and ideas about politics, economics, society and current affairs that used to be discussed in living rooms are now discussed on the internet. A new paradigm that has yet to sink in to the insular and short-sighted. Perhaps it could be argued that these conversations could have influence on some but not sufficiently to sway an election. If these conversations are political influencers to be shut down and silenced in the eyes of liberals, then the conversations in universities, led by socialist and globalist professors should be shut down and silenced. The new paradigm is that living-room, coffee-date, and bar-at-five conversations now take place globally on the internet. Ironically, one would think that the liberal globalists -- the ones involved in attacking free speech -- would love the idea of the vast reach of new global living-room conversations.
I say to those who think censorship is a good idea, grow up, adapt to how we communicate today. If you don't like what conservatives have to say, then learn the facts and debate them with facts, reason and intelligence (without, I might add, epithets, innuendos without substance designed to demean and defame and outright bullying that appears so often in liberal commentary).

Please spare us the sudden halo around Diana. Maybe Martin Bashir and the BBC lured her with false pretenses, but they did not give Diana a script. Her private secretary, Patrick Jephson, told in his book how he advised Diana not to do the interview, but she refused to take his advice. She was responsible for everything she said. She trashed her sons' family. She went out of her way to demean Prince Charles, accusing him of having three in their marriage, when it was she who had a three-year extra- marital affair, etc..
Now, Prince William, a future king of Britain, is calling for the interview never to be aired again. He's calling for censorship: silence what he does not want new public to hear.
I would be very interested to know who dug up this whole issue, apparently not only to take down the BBC and Martin Bashir but also to sugarcoat Diana.
Diana was totally responsible for her appalling behavior and what she said.
I haven't heard Harry's take on this new episode yet. I can just imagine the rubbish. Did his wife orchestrate this latest episode? I will tune back into your show to find out Harry's take.
I have always been a supporter of royalty, but now I am beginning to think that it is time to get rid of the whole lot of them, once the Queen dies.
Both William and Harry natter on about mental health. Perhaps Step One should be for these boys to accept realty. Instead of blaming the media and others for their mother's troubles and death, come to terms with her faults, her own role in her troubles, as well as her good traits, and learn to handle them with candor.

@KM-bu5yw OUCH. Google it? Wikipedia? One of the most serious crises in the West today is real disinformation from the MSM. Google is among the top perpetrators as it disseminates the misinformation. An interesting exercise is to google for information about the Ukraine War. Hundreds - pages and pages and pages - of MSM disinformation comes up, with false stories and videos, vilifying and wrongly blaming Russia. Word-for-word, or very similar, defamatory headlines or tag lines, apparently originating from AP or Reuters. No independent reporting. How do I know the information is false? Because I watched the same event, live, as it happened from independent frontline reporters. As for Wikipedia, rely on it at your peril. All open-source sites have now become completely unreliable, with uninformed, ignorant, or politicized public input and updates.

@Jeff Kay -- Firstly the US did not attack everything that moves in the Middle East after 9/11. The U.S. launched a responsive, retaliatory attack (with Saudi Arabia as an ally) against Afghanistan, where the 9/11 attack was planned, initiated and orchestrated. Secondly, your piece is fake news. Fake news includes news presentations with half the facts, the facts that work against the authors, left out. You conveniently did not include that Osama Bin Laden fled to Sudan as a fugitive from the crosshairs of the Saudi Government. Thirdly, you obviously have no understanding of the history of Saudi Arabia and the balancing act between the Royal Family and the Wahhabis. If you are not familiar with the schism between the two, you have no credibility discussing Saudi Arabia. After Afghanistan, you are right, the U.S. entered two wars in the Middle East, one to free Kuwait from Saddam Hussein's grip; the second, a full out attack against Iraq. The Iraq War is still controversial. Were there weapons of mass destruction or not? Some, with experience on the ground in Iraq and with many Iraqi elite still categorically affirm the weapons. Frankly, what many overlook, when dissing that war, is that Saddam Hussein gassed his own people -- innocent men, women and children -- en masse -- just as Hitler had done? Was Hitler worth defeating but not Saddam Hussein? What the authorities in the U.S. did not understand were the Jihadi trends and factions in the Middle East at the time. Those brave front-line U.S. infantry soldiers battled insurgent Islamist terrorists (vs. Iraqis) house to house, room to room.
Then came along Hillary Clinton, with her applauder, Barack Obama. She ASSISTED the terrorists in Syria, calling them "moderate rebels," when they were nothing but home-grown and insurgent extremist, Islamist terrorists. She and Obama supported the Arab Spring, an uprising centrally involving the Muslim Brotherhood. They, unbelievably, either did not understand or ignored that organization's long designation as a terrorist group. In Libya, she professed to be assisting the people of Libya, resulting in chaos, civil war, death and destruction, mass people smuggling, slavery, and the worst crisis in Europe since WW2. THAT WAS AT THE HANDS OF HILLORY CLINTON WITH BARACK OBAMA CHEERING ON THE SIDELINES. IT WAS NOT AMERICA.
LASTLY, the public may not be that stupid, but it appears that you are. The giveaway? Your lack of knowledge of the details, but more importantly your, "if you believe the story." Go learn about the Middle East and the facts about 9/11.

Drain the Swamp:
Term limits in house and senate
Banish third-party paid lobbying.
Restrictions on financial dealings of elected officials and their families, friends and business associates.
Embedded caps on government spending and borrowing. When the caps are reached government must downsize.

Thankfully SM has expanded exponentially since Vogue ignored one of the two most beautiful First Ladies in US history, Melania Trump, first time around.
There is nothing this declining magazine can do to hide and denigrate her today. With the explosion of SM, we see the beautiful and smart Melania Trump every day and know the truth about her, while hardly anyone ever buys or subscribes to Vogue or even sees it.
Anna Wintour has destroyed Vogue, politicizing it, featuring cheap-looking "influencers" such as Kim Kardashian who is a better fit for the National Enquirer, and filtering, airbrushing, and photoshopping Jill Biden in a failed attempt to make her a fit for Vogue.
Shame on the 26-year-old, under-educated, puerile upstart who wrote this hit piece and who, by her appearance, knows nothing about fashion. Shame on Anna Wintour for hiring her and approving her diatribe.

Trump was the best: incredibly courageous in the face of adversity; clear, common-sense mind; understanding of economics, finance and business; exposed the deep corruption in the Democrat Party at risk to himself; took no salary as president; always kept the ordinary people in focus; delivered the best economy and lowest unemployment for all groups (African Americans, Black Youth, Hispanics, Women [the best in 75 years]); best control on the border in our lifetime; adamantly against the exploitative outsourcing/insourcing of cheap labor that keeps wages down, destroys jobs, decimates manufacturing and makes hell-holes out of cities, while democrat CEO's wanted the status quo to profit on the backs of cheap labor; the most transparent president of our lifetime; initiative to reduce prescription-drug costs by mandating favored-nations clauses in pharmaceutical agreements; respected by foreign leaders; exposed the criminality and sedition of China; exposed Biden's corruption in Ukraine and other countrie; school choice; first president of our lifetime who did not go to war, but made a defensive military a priority; understands how continuous, high net annual immigration will ultimately destroy a country; extremely decisive. I could go on and on. Time you learned the facts about Trump, instead of covering your lemming behind by feeling a need to include, "Trump may not have been the best...." in your comment.

@whitehh15 Who do you think did that to Mariupol? Have you not followed Patrick's videos? Heard the live testimonies about who caused this damage? It was not the Russians, other than defending themselves against Azov Militia hiding out in civilian buildings, using people as human shields. Putin relentlessly called for diplomacy, as Biden upped his vicious threats. His calls fell on deaf ears. He had no other option but to create his SMO and defeat the Azov Militia at Donbass. To do that, Russia had to defeat the Azov Militia in Mariupol, the HQ of the militia.
You might want to recall that over 1000 Ukrainian Marines and a few mercenary volunteers with them all surrendered. They, themselves, said they did not want to die for the corrupt Zelensky.
Why is a main reason for the SMO to defeat the Azov Militia? Because it has been shelling Donbass Russians for 8 years, with the help of war-mongering, interloping US. To date, over 14,000 Russian men, women and children have been killed by shelling from that militia. When Biden refused diplomacy, Putin had no other option but to go in unilaterally to save thousands more Russians being slaughtered by the Ukrainian Azov Militia and Army.

Sandra Myers - Interestingly, I, a conservative, was an adamant Obama supporter during his two presidential campaigns. I latched on to Obama after reading his book, "Dreams from my Father, " in which, unlike Hillary Clinton who sugarcoats everything to make herself look great, Obama, in his book, was not afraid to show vulnerability. He seemed to be honest, no matter how negative it made him look. I was so wrong, and it is a lesson to be learned. Know your politicians thoroughly. Obama put himself out as a centrist prepared to go slightly left or right depending on the circumstances. I believed he had risen above obstructive politics, racism, and gender divisions. I was so wrong.
That is not what he turned out to be; and anyone who had done sufficient research about him would have known that is not who he was. Had I done sufficient research, alarm bells would have wrung on finding out the identification of the mentors who catapulted him to president.
I supported Michelle Obama as his partner, despite the controversy about her apparent, inherent racism against whites; despite questions about her academic accomplishments courtesy of quota systems. I still greatly support her priority initiative, as first lady, of healthy eating and exercise. The pushback she received from Republicans and the food industry was appalling. Unfortunately, she caved and ended that initiative, focusing on exercise, while being a whole lot quieter about healthy eating. We will never see Donald Trump cave and neutralize his positions when faced with such pressure. He has the courage of steel.
I should have recognized something was amiss with Obama on his first whopper of a mistake, but I actually covered for him over that. What was it? His appointment of Hillary Clinton as his Secretary of State. I was gobsmacked by that blunder, so soon after his election. Explained it away by keeping-his-enemies-close narratives. Ultimately that appointment showed his true light. He was no centrist. He was a leftist, deeply affected and not able to overcome his mixed-"race" background, devoid of business experience that can make America great, and fitted with blinkers about what actually made America great.
President Trump is the best thing that has happened to America in our lifetime. A businessman who understands how to make America great again (already happening beyond anyone's imagination). A leader of enormous courage that comes around once in hundreds of years. The irrational hatred for him (courtesy of the mainstream media) is disgusting, appalling and extremely dangerous. He has done absolutely nothing wrong to deserve it. With liberals out of the way for me, after the Clinton disasters in the Middle East and felonies to save herself and influence an election, and the disastrous policies of Obama, I was at a loss. As a business person, I had followed Trump's business ups and downs for years, but was neutral on him as a presidential contender. The I started watching his rallies, the most informed rallies in my lifetime (over and above Ross Perrot's informative presidential campaign). He made total common sense, while Clinton did not. I was with him. I am now disgusted by the puerile, but very dangerous behavior of Democrats witnessed over the last year. Unless we stop their puerile, but ethically dangerous behavior, America will be lost.
By the way, through it all, Hillary Clinton was off bounds for me. She is, in my opinion with evidence to back it up, the most corrupt politician in U.S. history and an enabler of the serial, sexual abuse of her husband, to boot.

Conscription always scares the hell out of me. If I were a young man at risk of being conscripted and sent to the front, I would be scared, battle ready or not, and mull over the idea of escaping. Mitigating this news slightly, is the knowledge that Putin has said the conscripts will only be among former military and reserves.
The reality of conscription plays loud, clear and chillingly every time we watch films of WW2 allied conscripts on landing craft, heading for the European beaches, knowing as we do, that so many of those innocent men, terror running through their veins, were slaughtered before they even reached the beaches and many more right on the beaches.
The reality of conscription rings true every time we see film of US conscripts in Vietnam lying low in partially protected fox holes, waiting in terror for the next explosion.
Conscription is no less terrifying, as we watch film of WW2 German conscripts freezing and wounded on the snow covered Eastern steppes, knowing as we do, that they did not make it out of that freezing hell.
Meanwhile, a few released, sheltered top Azov guys in Turkey are not going to wipe away the imagery of 53+ Azov dead and 75+ Azov wounded in the Zelensky-ordered hit on the Donetsk POW camp where they were housed. The Azov in Turkey will not waste time sipping Turkish coffees in outdoor cafés. They will barter for computer access and phones. May they reap their vengeance on the Vogue model and high-heeled dancing CinC, whom they detest, before any Russian conscripts and thousands more Ukrainians are killed, to bring a quick end to this vile Biden war.

The toothless ICJ accusing Israel of genocide is a symptom of the inside-out, twisted, lemming expulsion of history, morals, and common-sense that has swept over the world, now supporting a genocidal terrorist organization, Hamas and its supporters. South Africa bringing this case to this fake court just twists the knife. South Africa, government members of which encourage its genocide of white farmers, and actually amended its constitution to allow for the theft of farms without due compensation. We live in a sick, sick, deteriorating world that does not understand the difference between genocide and collateral damage.

No parallel courses. Teaching creationism side-by-side with evolution is an oxymoron. So too, is indigenous science side-by-side with real science. Indigenous myths belong in a sidebar to indigenous history. The foundation of university attendance should be meritocracy. Period. No quotas, no exceptions. If the majority of the smartest are indigenous people, then they will make up the majority of students. If the majority of the smartest are Chinese or East Indian, then they will make up the majority. If the majority of the smartest are European, then they will make up the majority. If the majority of the smartest are men, then they will make up the majority, or vice-versa with women. My guess is that Chinese students are the smartest. (Note I do not lump many different ethnic groups as the "politically correct" description, "Asian.") Why are the Chinese the smartest? In my view, they apply themselves the best and work the hardest. Ever been in an academic university late at night? Ninety-eight percent of the people there are Chinese, the Europeans likely down at the bar. From a European Woman.

It will be a tremendous insult to the British people, if H & M appear at the coronation. Furthermore, after his military disclosures, it's time to end all this. Whether it be King Charles, the British Parliament or both together, their title MUST be stripped. It is not only ludicrous but it is also unacceptable to have titled British royals going around trashing the Head of State, his family, the Constitutional Monarchy, the British people and the Commonwealth. This cannot be on. The RF should not respond, just the PM, or other representative, announcing that they no longer have titles.

@Bruce-on1ux I am not sure about that. Google, as a search engine has become so important. Let's put it this way, the world will be a better place with another search engine run by individuals who are ethical, mature, and well educated. Big Tech today (Facebook, Google and Twitter have C-Suites filled with narrowly and undereducated tech nerds who got lucky). FACEBOOK: I believe Facebook should be run right off the internet, if it does not stop its censorship, political and manipulating tactics. I believe we, the people, have the power to do that by leaving Facebook. It's an extraneous platform. GOOGLE: I believe Google should be split up and the remaining companies highly regulated against censorship, manipulation, prioritizing of searches, fiddling with facts, and political activities. TWITTER: I would like to see another company overtake Twitter. Again, we the people can do this by leaving Twitter. However, it has become a very important news site. If competitors cannot blow it out of the water, then it should be highly regulated -- not a publisher but a pure platform, just like the phone companies.

Lot of inappropriate assumptions here. As for Prince Andrew, we all know that he was a friend of Epstein. He's admitted that, along with it being a misguided friendship. Many others were friends of Epstein as well. There are photos of Stephen Hawking at his Lolita Island. Today we learn from you via your reliable sources that Prince Andrew had an affair with Ghislaine Maxwell and access to the Palace (similar access, I expect, for many girlfriends of royal princes over history, including recent history). My point is that no one has proven that Andrew had sexual relations with his accuser. He may have and may not have. She will need to provide evidence. After many recent false or tenuous sexual assault accusations against men, the mantra that female accusers must be believed at face value, simply has no validity, especially when the accusers and their lawyers have their eyes on a massive bank account. The photo of them together, along with Ghislaine, shows a young girl who could easily have been at the age of majority or older. So if the accuser and Andrew did have a sexual encounter, did Andrew know how old she was? Ghislaine's appearance in the photo, after your news today, offers another interpretation of the picture (lovers or ex-lovers, now friends, at an innocent get together with a young guest). After the appalling false accusations against President Trump, I think we all need to be very careful about accusations or insinuations against others when there is no proof. Innocent until proof of guilt beyond a reasonable doubt is supplied.

Just five times? Obama appointed Biden as the pointman in Ukraine. The Maidan Coup, Victoria Nuland's appointing her favorites to top Ukrainian government positions, Ukrainian apartheid against Russian-Ukrainians, civil war, Ukrainian genocide against Donbass Russians, entry of NATO into Ukraine, Western funding, supplying and training of Ukrainian forces, US-backed build up of Ukrainian forces at the Donbass/ Russian borders, egregious sanctions against Russia, vilification of Russia and Russians, deep corruption and thievery in Ukraine, Kolomoisky's theft of all the deposits in the PrivatBank, foreign influence peddling involving Burisma, bullying of EU, UK to join the US manufactured war against Russia - ALL UNDER BIDEN.

PJW - Start a media empire of your own! That would be conventional, although time consuming. A media empire that includes free speech, ethics, factual reporting, challenges to those who are dishonest or need to be called out. Make sure your next girl friend is conservative and self sufficient. In other words, she won't be uncomfortable when people recognize you for what you do; she will be proud of you. She will be self-sufficient and won't be upset when you have work to do.
I plan to start such a media empire. Have saved the name for it. Don't know how I am going to go about it. Just start, create a website, and learn as I go. I believe the loss of professional journalism is the most serious crisis we are facing right now, along with censorship of conservatives and painting them as extreme right racists and bigots in an attempt to demean them and justify the censorship. We have to deal with all this, along with all that is going so wrong in the world today, thanks to unethical globalists, politicians, civil servants, corporate leaders, teachers, professors, extreme individuals, terrorists and, not to forget, feminists run amok.
Albert Einstein said, "The world is a dangerous place to live, not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don’t do anything about it." We must not give up fighting. I believe conservatives have to create their own secular schools, universities and news organizations; then corporations that run on the basis of merit.

Before Russia's SMO, Liz Truss screeched on UK TV that Britain would target anyone in the Kremlin who had anything to do with the continuation of Russia, a reckless, dangerous declaration of war against Russia and threat to wipe it off the map, as British towns and cities crumbled, as Britain was imploding from within from far-too-high immigration, illegal migration, and excessive welfare. Russia had done nothing to Britain - had never - not once - threatened, attacked or invaded it. It was engaged in friendly trade with Britain, now cut off by cowardly British sanctions.
Boris Johnson then sent Liz Truss to Moscow to meet the world-renowned Russian diplomat, Sergey Lavrov. The event was filmed and posted on the internet for all to see - but not on the MSM. Her behavior was abominable, rude, threatening, uninformed, with zero understanding of the situation on the ground, zero knowledge of the relevant geography and cities. Sergey Lavrov was disgusted. It was a trigger. Within approximately ten days, Putin recognized Donetsk's and Luhansk's independence outside Ukraine (previously he had called for their independence within Ukraine). They asked Russia to help them end the Ukrainian genocide against them. The SMO was activated to end that genocide.
The war and sanctions against Russia (pretending it is all about Ukraine) has greatly expanded British deterioration. Tax funds going to fund it. Sanctions boomeranging to cause sky-high Western energy costs and inflation. The British people now struggling, not being able to afford groceries and gas. The food industry is highly dependent on energy, resulting in unaffordable grocery prices.

@SSJ Escanor -- You didn't listen to Donald Trump during his presidential campaign, did you? He was the first to admit he had products made in China. That is not the point. The point is that offshoring, outsourcing, and trade deficits result in businesses having to get their products made in China, because it is so much cheaper. If they don't, they can't compete. That is what needs to change, and that is what President Trump is working on changing.
Ever wondered why business organizations don't support President Trump despite the economy being so good as a result of his policies? Because they are against his initiatives to create fair trade, end wage-and-job-destroying trade deficits, stop outsourcing, etc., because they want to continue paying low, non-living wages, whether by outsourcing to foreign labor, or continuing loose immigration policies to insource cheap labor.

There is a war, and approximaty 600,000 unwilling Ukrainian conscripts have died as proxy fodder for it, an evill US war to tear Russia apart for MIC profits, plunder Russian resources and invade Eurasia, while lying to the people that it is to protect Ukrainian freedom and democracy. There is no freedom and democracy in Ukraine. It is deeply corrupt and headed by a tyrannical dictator. Joe Biden started the war as Obama's point man in Ukraine, initiating the Maidan Coup that spilled into civil war, Ukrainian genocide against Donbass Russians, and ultimately the Russian SMO activated to end the genocide, as Biden funds more and more death and destruction. Too many people don't care, can't pick Ukraine out on a map and support the man behind the war, Joe Biden.

Astonishing that this lemming, hippy, fool, Blinken, will not admit that the man (and his family) killed in the drone strike was an aid worker. The New York Times, of all media outlets, has published a full assessment, with evidence, that Biden's drone strike hit and killed an innocent aid worker and his family! Unbelievably dangerous to have these naive, misguided, altruistic hippies in positions of power.
Why would the NYT, a media outlet that has blindly supported the Biden Regime, for once resort to professional journalism to release the facts about this drone strike? Does it want to replace Biden with the equally inept Harris? Or did it publish it because the NYT team in the Kabul office was among those Biden left behind in Afghanistan?

Her historical significance, Geraldo? An example of affirmative action, racism and equity at a high level. The historical significance will be the failure of choosing someone, not for intellect, experience, world knowledge, smarts, personality or leadership skills, but for skin color and gender. An example of the dangers of Critical Race Theory and its racism, hijacked feminism, and equity or equal outcomes, as preached under Marxism.

The corrupt wokists at @CNN, Lemon et al, see their own writing on the wall. The new @CNN owners and management want factual, professional journalism and news, no opinions as news, no sidebar food or entertainment or talk shows, just news. Lemon and his pals are attempting to transition to factual news in the hope of keeping their jobs. In my opinion, they must go, because the cannot gain any credibility after years of lies, fake news, twisted news, propaganda, let alone years of foul bullying and deliberate, fraudulent accusations against a duly elected president. Let's hope the new chief has the guts to follow through with professional journalism and send these vile current hosts packing.

One of the very troubling aspects of the West's manufactured war in Ukraine, using Ukrainian conscripts as fodder to be killed in their evil war, is the large number of women involved at the centre of Western aggression. Among the most egregious: Victoria Nuland, Ursula von der Leyen, Hillary Clinton (boss of Sullivan), not to forget one of the most chilling, Liz Truss, Boris Johnson's own foreign secretary. Her abominable behavior in her meeting with Sergey Lavrov was a trigger. Lavrov was disgusted by her. It all played out before our eyes on the internet. Within days after that meeting, Putin recognized Donetsk and Luhansk and created his SMO after those states asked for Russia's help to end the eight-year, Ukrainian genocide against them. Her aggressive threats finally confirmed to Russia that diplomatic negotiations were not on the West's agenda.
LOL, good for Maria Zakharova!

@2057 - Interesting how we expose ourselves in what we say. You are an uneducated bully. Name calling (piece of crap) is nothing short of bullying -- school-yard bulling by those who have no intelligence or reasoning powers.
Uneducated because you don't have the wherewithal to understand that CNN made a deal with the DNC/Democratic party to collude with them (not hearsay but proven in their own emails). It is nothing less than a political propaganda arm for the Democrats, spouting false and fake news (aka Joseph Goebbels), and you are not sufficiently educated to keep up with, or research the facts.
You apparently don't have the reasoning power to stay with the news. The treasonous situations in the FBI and DOJ (Obama's left overs) are not hearsay or speculation, but proven, evidential material, sourced through the courts, congressional investigative committees and freedom of information searches.
Sean Hannity never hired Cohen as a lawyer. NEVER. He has had drinks with him and discussed real estate with him. The loss of professional journalism is one of the worst crises we face today. Your comments are a great example of the dangers of that loss, because you apparently have absolutely no idea what has been going on and how the activities became public knowledge.
Shame on anyone, Democrat or Republican, who attempts to mitigate these treasonous activities on the part of FBI and DOJ Democrats, ignore them, explain them away or dismiss them. How do you explain your lack of honor and ethics to your children?

I come from a colonial family: The people who worked for my family had free housing, free water, free plots of land on which to grow vegetables, corn, etc., free milk, free flour (for the standard staple of the country), free meat, free healthcare, free hospitalization when needed, free primary schooling at neighboring schools. Now the descendents are likely in the throws of misery subsisting in the slums that have grown up around towns and cities (that were not there during colonial days), living under corrupt governments, enjoying no free necessities of life, and many dodging the evils of protracted civil war and disease. My point is that any encroachment on culture to protest against colonialism is highly misguided.

Biden didn't qualify as a firefighter, cop or priest, so he became a liar, no-results senator, baby-sitter snatcher, international crook, and criminal in an international, influence-peddling scheme to enrich himself, using his drug-addicted son as his bagman, and enriching family members fronting as his proxies -- all while he wasn't down at the community pool, scrapping with Corn Pop. So much stress his brain protein couldn't handle it, leaving him as a shuffling, pliable, vacuous, script reader for a wicked cabal raining hell on America and the world.

Shocking, in itself, that liberals (actually they are now totalitarian-fascists) were shocked at the state of Biden during the debate - that they didn't know. He's been in the same state since he shuffled into the WH. His dementia has just progressed. A testament to the evils of censored and politicized MSM that has kept his condition a secret - lied about him, not shown his falls, garbled speech, messed up scripts, lost and false memories, wanderings, inability to answer questions, inability to exit from stages, dementia vacancy, dementia anger fits, etc.

If I were Putin, I would turn off the taps. Why keep feeding the vile war mongers who have waged war against you for no acceptable reason. This Western war, threats and sanctions against Russia started BEFORE Russia's Special Military Operation formed to end the US-backed, Ukrainian genocide against Donbass Russians, after the US, Ukraine, UK, EU, West refused diplomacy to end the genocide and prevent the current hostilities. By 2021, over 14,000 Russian men, women and children had been killed in this genocide, and it continues, as the Ukrainian military deliberately targets civilians in the Donbass.
The only, possible, wicked reason for this vile war against Russia, that under Putin, has never done anything untoward to any of these war-mongering countries, is to generate profits for the Military Industrial Complex, the Financial, Insurance, Real Estate sector (false notions about rebuilding the destruction they have caused, while profiting and pocketing the money), and tearing Russia apart to step in, interfere, as the US/Canada has interfered in Ukraine, and plunder its resources.

@Truthisstrangerthan Fiction Great questions! I recommend a book that I am reading right now: "The Plot Against The President," by Lee Smith about Devin Nunes's journey, uncovering the attempted coup against President Trump. It goes into the corruption of the press in great detail. Names the particular "journalists," the collusion between the plotters and the press, such collusion being an integral part of the plot, and the correlation of the plot timelines and leaked articles. The author also briefly goes into one of the reasons leading to the implosion of journalism: The internet upset their business models, based on advertising. They started bleeding money big time. They could no longer afford to do investigative journalism, which was once considered a loss leader, but now is a total loss for them. So they now outsource their news and use the sub-standard product. One of the organizations they used is Fusion GPS! Presto! He also highlights the connections among many of the leftist plotters. I believe sub-standard education has a lot to do with the mess. Many voters -- even "journalists" -- never studied subjects, knowledge of which should be an integral part of being a journalist. or informed voter. They never learned basic ethics. They ran into teachers and professors who, themselves, had been brainwashed with socialist principles, identity politics, political correctness, over-the-top feminism, and victimhood. George Soros is a mystery. Very strange that he believes in one world order, given his background. Hard to know if it is all a game for him, or deep-seated beliefs. The open border ideas are propagated by touch-feely, bleeding hearts who never took math or economics -- don't even stop to think of the certain economic, societal and political damage that open borders will do to a country. But more troubling the notion of open borders that we are seeing today -- with just one-way flows into the West, is nothing short of the most insidious ethnic cleansing ever witnessed.

Exactly. Corrupt Ukrainian oligarchs, including Zelensky, catapulted to the presidency by the theif, Kolomoisky, robbed Ukrainians blind. The country was bankrupt, relying on foreign aid, much of it siphoned out the back door into US bank accounts, long before this war. Millions had to leave Ukraine years before this war to find work. Meanwhile, Trudeau supported, funded and trained far-right nazi militias, under the influence of his deputy PM, Chrystia Freeland, who should recuse herself from all Ukrainian matters, because she is overflowing in conflicts of interest in connection with that country.

@MrLizardDude1 Shame on you DB. One of the most serious crises we are facing today is the loss of professional journalism. That includes, lies, twisted news, avoidance of news. That is what the Matt Gaetz lies were all about. This dangerous loss of professional journalism continues, because it has an uninformed or totally ignorant audience that drinks it. If you are intelligent, then you either know that the story about Matt Gaetz was an attempt to demean him, or you have the wherewithal to research the facts but choose not to, because the truth doesn't fit your agenda. Be courageous and stop kowtowing to lies, because those lies will surely boomerang to bite you and your family. If you don't believe me, start learning about the USSR, the evil that started with tools, strategies and tactics very similar to those being used by Democrats today. The parallels between 1930s Germany and Democrats today are alarming. Do the right thing. Without professional journalism and facts there an be no functional democracy.

Maxine Waters is a great example for why knowledge thresholds should be required for those who run for political office. In other words a slew of very tough exams covering economics, finance, business, political science, communications, ethics, national and world history, current affairs, sciences, etc. Electorates are so ignorant these days that the same types of exams for voters have now become a viable debate. Knowledge exams for both voters and politicians, if democracy is to survive and flourish.

Ask the haters of Trump why they hate him, and they will spit out epithets and lies against him that the corrupt MSM, such as CNN and MSNBC, relentlessly hurl out. That's where they get their "news." They are not educated well enough to question or do any research. In a nutshell, lack of education and corrupt media has caused the TDS.
Ask haters of Trump the details of any of Trump's policies, actions, and consequences. They will not be able to answer.
That woman you featured, Slotkin, is an example. She is unaware that Putin is not a dictator. Russia actually has a democratic constitution that is very similar to that of the US, with the same checks and balances of the three Executive, Judicial, and Legislative branches. The only difference is that, under Biden, those branches had ceased working
Bottom line, there is no freedom and democracy without informed, professional journalism, and excellent education.

I don't think Obama was whining about white privilege. I think, at the time of his visit to Kenya, he made accurate assessments. Kenyan students graduating with no employment or career opportunities does create an explosive situation. This observation was prescient. Today, youth unemployment in Kenya is an urgent crisis. 800,000 Kenyan youth enter the job market every year with youth unemployment estimated to be as high as 35%. I happen to know that, at that time -- not sure about now -- whites were served before blacks, likely a misguided decision of the tourist industry to please the tourists and/or whites who were often well paid foreign workers or dignitaries with lots of money. I also agree with Auma about the tourists and their negative impact on the people and beauty of Kenya. His observation about the reticence of black Kenyans was also accurate, in my view.
For full disclosure, I am a white Kenyan. I was once a pest of an Obama admirer before wising up, as I learned about the Obama Administration. In my view, it turned out to be the most corrupt in US history, now (in 2020) with an even more corrupt stolen administration heading for the White House and backed and shadowed by Obama, after a fraudulent election -- the kind of politics one expects in countries in Africa, such as Kenya.
That brings me to the government's responsibilities at the time of Obama's visit and now. Corruption and population explosion (the latter which Obama mentioned in the video) are two of the most serious issues keeping Kenyans down. It is not the government's responsibility to house and feed Kenyans, but it is its responsibility to create the conditions that allow people to house and feed themselves. At that time in 1990, Kenya had been independent for 27 years. Twenty-seven year-olds had never experienced white government. I am quite sure that, now, work quotas likely make it almost impossible for white people to find work in Kenya.
When I lived in Kenya the Black Africans who worked for my family received free housing, medical care, meat, posho (maize, their staple diet), milk and land to grow vegetables, in addition to wages. As children, if we were caught being rude to Black Africans, we would be in for the wrath of my parents. But it was a divided country of Africans in three groups: Brown, Black and White. Some of our workers were like family to us. Today, over 170,000 Kenyans live in Kibera, a noxious, disease-infested slum on the outskirts of Nairobi, said to be the largest urban slum in Africa. These slum dwellers have no living assistance, jobs or meaningful opportunities. Kibera did not exist in colonial times.
I think an issue people missed about Obama is his deep connection to his father -- a phantom connection that brought up opposing emotions: sadness, regrets, anger, reality, reflection, disappointment, settling, resolve, etc., culminating, during that trip, with a commitment to set right the things that went wrong in his father's life and set right the things his father could not. A complex plan to change not America but the world and traditional systems. People understood him to be on a mission to change America for the better. In his quest to change the world, he abandoned Americans; and the Deep Swamp swallowed him up. He became one of them. Or did they become him? Whichever, it has resulted in enormous damage that will not be easily undone. President Trump has done far more for African Americans than President Obama did. A lesson is that it is not up to America to improve the lives of Africans; it is up to their various governments.
We did not understand the depth of Obama's commitment, so deep, that he would not stay silent as his global goals were shattered; that he would resort to any means to his end. If he had stood up and been honest, admitted that the rolling coup against President Trump was deeply corrupt and wrong, that those responsible must face consequences, and the party be cleaned up before moving on, they likely could have found a credible candidate who might have won the 2020 election without the help of corruption and fraud and without the enormous damage America now faces. The problem with that idea is that we now have evidence about that Jan. 5, 2017, meeting in the White House, attended by Obama, Biden, Comey, Brennan, Rice, Yates and likely Strzok, when they plotted how to frame an innocent man, knowing he was innocent, as a subplot to the main plot to unseat Trump. It appears Obama was in on it; so he could not have condemned the corruption and created a clean state for the Democrat Party.

I am going to be a devil's advocate here. It seems to me that Epstein was an elite pimp. Haven't heard of any reports of he, himself, molesting children (could be that such stories are yet to be made public). Have heard he had salacious pics around his places -- for his clients' enjoyment? So, pimps get arrested all the time -- probably not enough. Would anyone bat an eyelid if an arrested lower-class pimp committed suicide? Would anyone continue on with charges against his/her associates after his/her death, or advocate to any huge degree for the victims? Huge double standard here. Is it to charge the big wigs that joined Epstein's play land? Maybe Clinton? Wishful thinking! So what's the point. In summary, then, this suicide has been blown out of all fair proportion. Far more important is making sure that the Democrat coup mongers are brought to justice. Their vile activities in the scheme of things were far, far more dangerous with much, much wider and serious damage. How about Seth Rich? He wasn't a voluntary victim. He was shot in the back. Why no outcry and determination to get to the bottom of that case? Having said that, I get the need for justice for Epstein's victims, but why no push for justice for all the day-to-day young prostitutes (equally as young), out plying their bodies on dangerous street corners and filthy back rooms.

Conservative and atheist here! One thing Conservatives need to do is move away from their mythical God. By all means, believe in a mythical god -- we decry the banning of freedoms, including religious freedoms -- however, admiration of a God over science will be a road to disaster for the future of humanity. Instead of emphasizing God, emphasize the value of some of the teachings of Christianity. Speak about the culture and progress that spilled out of Christianity and the Western World. There are millions of atheists, agnostics and people who believe in multiple gods, etc. that we would love to have on the Conservative side.
The issue with religious freedom is that in espousing it, we must fold in Islam, including Islamism (the blending of religious Islam with political Islam, the call for jihad against infidels, the dire consequences, including death, for apostates, the vile discrimination against women, forcing them -- by coercion or order -- to wear completely covering modesty clothing, while their male counterparts strut their stuff in Western garb, complete with the latest style in sun glasses, as they eyeball Western women.
Religions are actually nothing more than philosophies -- greatly flawed philosophies at that, and should be open to study, research, discussion, criticism, modernization, and change, just like any other philosophy. The danger of freedom of religion is allowing abuses to be protected under an umbrella of religion, such as the abuse of women under Islam.

Lost me a quarter of the way through your appalling video. Enron, indeed, was a huge scandal -- one of greed, risk, arrogance, law and accounting stretching and big-time delusion. Your video zeros on the trading scandal, without really explaining the abuses and completely missed a huge part of Enron, its investments, energy and engineering projects. Am not going to watch any further, so hopefully you covered the special purpose, off-balance-sheet entities. The tale of Enron and those SPEs is extremely complex, and I have a strong suspicion you don't come close to understanding the complexities. That's why your video is just a piece of fluff.

Now, we know what all intelligent people already guessed but had no proof until now. Joe Biden, with his team of warmongers, Blinken, Nuland and Sullivan, planned to blow up Nord Stream 1 and 2 BEFORE Russia's SMO. Blew them up (with the help of Norway) after the SMO. No wonder Biden was goading Russia into war. A Russian invasion is great cover/excuse for the act of terrorism against Russia, Germany and the EU. Why blow up pipelines that have nothing to do with either the US or Norway? To stop Germany particularly, and the EU from re-establishing trade relations with Russia, thereby, further diminishing US hegemony, petrodollar, and geopolitical dominance (as well as infringing on Norwegian energy sales). Pure unadulterated evil: terrorism against allies, war against Russia and Russians for profit, plunder and geopolitical dominance, not for defence.
Most egregious and depraved of all, the use and destruction of Ukraine as a proxy battlefield, and the use of Ukrainian conscripts to die as proxy fodder for incredibly evil US/Western intentions. The latest death count? 400,000 Ukrainian conscripts KIA or injured. Shame on anyone who stays silent, or attempts to justify or mitigate this horror on the part of the US/West.
It is not as if the US/West is fighting evil as in WW2. It is on the side of evil, supporting Ukrainian genocide (against Donbass Russians), nazism oozing through Ukraine in its military, government and society, and the most undemocratic, corrupt, tyrannical government in Europe and one of the worst in the world. The very same horrors that Russia is fighting against. Highly inept Western leaders have been loud and crystal clear about their intention to tear Russia and Russians apart. For Russia this has become an existential war. Of course it is fighting back.

Trudeau put Freeland in charge of Ukraine. If she had even a thread of ethics she would recuse herself from all discussions, actions, legislation, aid, training, funding and supplying relating to Ukraine. She oozes with conflicts of interest. Her family has a history in Ukraine, including, apparently, collaboration with the Nazis during WW2, she went to university in Ukraine, and she has irrational hatred for Russians. But she has no ethics.

@Jay McKenzie -- Ah! Your lack of logic! Universities don't teach students to think logically any more. In my comment, I said absolutely nothing about the turning-out controversies or what I thought about them, so to accuse me of pathetic and flimsy false equivalency is totally assumptive and baseless. I simply stated that there were turning-out controversies.
Initially Starbucks very unfairly asked two individuals to leave, and I believe the police were called. Highly inappropriate. After that incident, there were a few more incidents. The subsequent incidents were deliberate and staged to cause a controversies.
The first inappropriate incident has absolutely no connection to the vagrant I saw in a Starbuck's corner, other than his likely not being asked to leave, because Starbucks turned yellow after the controversies.
Also, I reiterate, when a business caves to demands from the public (other than for excellent service for paying customers), many of whom have never run a business, never had to be cognizant of the bottom line, and don't know a damn thing about brand, then that business is in peril.
Businesses are private enterprises, whether publicly listed, or private. Their priority is their shareholders. Period.
In my view, Starbucks, in the normal course of business, has always had an issue with people (mainly students) hogging tables with their computers for hours -- some not even purchasing anything (says something about ignorant, entitled individuals today). I can't tell you how many times friends and I have gone to Starbucks for a coffee, snack and chat and not been able to stay, because all the tables are occupied by the hoggers. Starbucks should have a right to have a policy about that. It should most definitely be able to turn out non-paying vagrants from their premises. Perhaps it should charging for WiFi.
Brand is everything for a business. Break it and your business will be broken shortly afterwards. Businesses should have every right to determine and follow through with their brands, without interference. Those who don't like a particular brand can try another brand. If a brand is detrimental to customers or society as a whole, customers will flee. The brand will be reactively broken. If Starbucks follows through with allowing non-paying customers to fill its seats, including unwashed vagrants, then Starbucks will proactively break its brand, customers will flee, it will lose money, employees will lose their jobs, and it will have to close.

Liz Truss has central culpability for increasing energy costs that are sending Britain into economic chaos. Her war mongering, sending Ukrainian men to die as proxy fodder for her evil intentions, while doubling down on sanctions and war against Russia, is central to Britain's current economic disaster.
She, in fact, declared war on Russia BEFORE the SMO, promising that Britain would target any member of the Kremlin who had anything to do with the continuation of Russia. Her abominable behavior in Moscow during a meeting with Lavrov was a trigger to the Russians that the West was not interested in peaceful diplomacy and negotiations to end the Ukrainian genocide against Donbass Russians. Lavrov was disgusted. Within a day of that meeting, Putin recognized Donetsk and Luhansk as independent states. They asked for Russia's help to end the genocide against them. Given the West's refusal of diplomacy, Russia formed the SMO to end the genocide militarily.
Unbelievably the West, including Liz Truss, instead, sided with genocide, nazism and tyrannical Ukrainian government, the very same horrors against which many died fighting Germany in WW2.
And this chilling, ignorant war mongrel is now PM of UK. Weep for Britain. But they have done it to themselves.

The Royal Family would be mad to allow MM back into their family fold. Frankly, astounded they allowed the marriage to go forward with new titles AND as representatives of Britain's head of state. MM is a political activist. The warnings were there. She had publicly defamed and insulted the head of state of Britain's greatest ally, Donald Trump. She threw puerile, but nasty epithets of racism and mysigonest at him, without reason, intelligence, knowledge or evidence, likely picked up watching the corrupt MSM.
If the Queen had offered her Princess Margaret deal, things would have turned out differently: By all means marry her, but no titles, no royal benefits, no royal funds, no royal jobs especially as a representative of the Queen. He either would have decided not to marry her under those conditions, or he would have married her, understanding there would be no titles (for them or their kids), no royal work, no royal funds or benefits.
They have burned their bridges. Not even the majority of the British public want them back. Let's not forget, the RF only continues, courtesy of the people.

@Thomas Jackson -- Very, very important to know and acknowledge the facts. The indictment against Manafort is about events that happened long before he worked with Trump and with which Trump had no involvement. Also, events over which Mueller has no jurisdiction. The charges have nothing to do with conspiring with Russians. There is not one shred of evidence of Trump conspiring with the Russians. There is LOADS OF EVIDENCE about Clinton, the Clinton-owned DNC, the Obama DOJ, FBI and CIA conspiring with Russians. Where are Mueller's indictments against these Democrats, including Hillary Clinton? The Mueller special counsel was initiated against the law, as part of an attempted coup against Trump. For a special counsel to be initiated, according to law, there must be a crime. There was no crime, just an attempt to bring Trump down. I could give you the benefit of the doubt and suggest that you are not well informed and have been exploited, demeaned and hoodwinked by the fake mainstream media that no longer practices professional journalism, no longer reports the facts, and is in fact a political arm of the Democratic Party. The fake media's exploiting the not-so-well informed is outrageous. More outrageous are those who actually know the facts and that the mainstream media is not reporting them but choose to protest against, or ignore those facts, for political gain.
Both Democrats and Republicans should be outraged that there was an attempted coup in the United States. It goes against everything the U.S., democracy, ethics, decency and honor are about. If you are a man of courage and integrity, then have the courage to stand up as a man and protest loudly against this vile attempted coup, evidence for which is now overwhelming. If you cherish integrity, then wrap yourself in it for the sake of your family and/or children. Demand that the Democratic Party be cleaned up and start again with new leaders who value integrity, fight against the antics of organizations such as Antifa, demand that free speech be sacrosanct, and put forward potential laws to ensure that in a democracy, we never again have a fallen and politicized media.

@Thomas Jackson - I'm not defending any of Manafort's activities. I am protesting against Mueller's involvement in indicting him. It was beyond his jurisdiction, as the judge has indicated. The indictments do not involve Trump. Do your research. Albeit, spuriously and illegally, Mueller's mandate was to uncover Trump/Russian collusion to affect the election. I suggest you actually read up on the case; not what the mainstream media has told you.
Perhaps you should take some time to read about Clinton's record of documented scandals. Recently, she set up an independent server over which classified material was sent (felony). She did this despite knowing it was an infraction. The Department of State directives she received banning independent servers have been published, let alone that, with her history and in her position, she aught to have known. She lied to congress about her server, emails and Benghazi (felonies). She tampered with and destroyed subpoenaed evidence (felony). All these felonies have been sufficiently documented for her to be charged. Now, let's talk about her start:
A democrat fired her from one of her first stints as a lawyer on the Watergate Investigative Committee. He fired for, in his words, being "an unethical, dishonest lawyer and a liar." As she was practicing law, that should have been the end of any public career for her. What had she done? During discovery, when it came time to exchange information with the other side, she stole pertinent information and hid it in her house, so the other side would not see it. That was just start of her corruption: White Water, Cattle Futures, White House Travel Office, Campaign Financing, assisting ISIS, covert weapons operations through Qatar (revealed through a court case), Clinton pay-for-play, Clinton Foundation, enabler of a serial sexual abuser. Now, if you admire this kind of person and continue to support her, as well as her big-government principles, then, frankly, you have absolutely no credibility. In my opinion, when such corruption is involved, the platform no matter how good or bad is not on the table.
Strzok, a traitorous coup monger, was at the centre of the illegalities, including the indictment of Flynn. In an objective court that would warrant the case being thrown out of court.
I am not going to reply to anymore of your comments. We reveal so much of ourselves by what we write. The names you have listed and your points are lifted right out of the fake mainstream news. You obviously have no wherewithal to research further, instead choosing to be a parrot. And anyone, in my view who supports such blatant corruption is not worthy of debating. Start presenting the actual facts, stand up and condemn the attempted coup, then we can debate political issues. Meanwhile, your hatred for Trump is transparent and deeply irrational, without a shred of evidence to back it up.

Lady Colin Campbell is probably a more vociferous critic of this unpleasant couple, with thousands of followers who agree. In my view, they should have their titles stripped with an order preventing them from using them. Harry's wife is nothing less than an uninformed, woke, hypocritically left leaning, opportunist and political activist, who has captured and turned a vulnerable, weak, equally uninformed man to parrot her views. Of course Time Magazine, once a respected magazine, now a woke, left-leaning, globalist propaganda rag, would skirt the truth about world disdain for this couple and include them on its cover in celebration, as influential people. If some on the list are wickedly influential, then that should be highlighted.

@tinyleopard6741 I am focusing on property insurance companies. I am not a fan of the idea of any insurance company investing in risky third-world healthcare unless they are domiciled in the third-world. That should be the job of the various governments, people, and companies in those countries.
Just imagine, if those who have lost their homes in the LA fires and could not get insurance, had created their own "premiums" to invest in their own investment savings/investment accounts.
Basic economics, finance, investment and business should be mandatory subjects for high-school graduation, allowing people to grow their knowledge, if they take humanities and arts courses in college, to be able to be in control of their own finances and security, not relying on some altruistic insurance portfolio manager intent on improving healthcare in, say, Bangladesh, South Sudan, Uganda or Ukraine.

@marcelbork92 Firstly, you have no idea where I live. Your assumption may or may not be correct. Secondly, skipped history in school, did you? The US was not an invader of Europe. It was a savior. The US saved Britain and its allies, Europe and the USSR from Hitler's clutches. I suppose you could argue that the US distastefully invaded Germany, but you would lose that argument. Europe would not be where it is today, without the US's Marshal Plan and economic recovery programs for Western Europe after WW2, with its presence continuing to today. The US did invade Japan, after it declared war on the US and lost that war. The US occupation of Japan included three phases:
the initial effort to punish and reform Japan, the work to revive the Japanese economy, and the conclusion of a formal peace treaty and alliance, still in effect today to the great advantage of, and peace between, both countries. I suggest you learn more about the circumstances of history before you spout off again.

Let's name some of the women who have been front and centre in this vile war: Ursula von der Leyen, Kaja Kallas, Annalena Baerbock, Mette Frederiksen, Liz Truss, Chrystia Freeland, Victoria Nuland, Janet Yellen, Samantha Power, Nancy Pelosi, Kamala Harris, Olena Zelenska. Shame on them all - war criminals.

If Harry and Meghan continue to be political activists, they cannot remain as part of the working royal family, only as part of the Queen's family, the family versus working aspect, expressed in the Queen's announcement. The potential conflicts of interest are too great, especially with Meghan and her proclivity to publicly state inappropriate woke opinions for a royal. She lost me when I saw the video of her trashing President Trump, without intelligence or reason, without foundation, substantiation or even a concrete gripe. Just an anti-Trump rant, spurred on, no doubt, by a corrupt and lying media -- a listener without the maturity to be discreet and quiet before finding out what actually happened. No decent person who knows about the now soundly confirmed plot against President Trump can possibly support such sedition and malicious attacks against him -- particularly a member of the royal family.

Shocking that Charles will offer them an apartment in Buckingham Palace when they visit. Of all places! Buckingham Palace DOES NOT belong to Charles, and the two Markles have been explicitly clear about what they think of the RF, HofS (Charles himself), Constitutional Monarchy, British Parliament, British People and the Commonwealth, yet Charles has the nerve to offer them accommodation in an apartment in a palace that belongs to the British people for any stays in Britain. The British people want them GONE.
Outrageous in my view. All I can say, is that Charles, the RF and British Parliament had better grow some pairs. There is already a huge republican contingent in Britain, and the influx of immigrants and migrants who couldn't care less about a RF, will one day vote. The RF maintains its position, courtesy of the voting British public.

Shame on them all. Working feverishly to hide Biden's dementia and ineptness for four years, or unbelievably, actually unaware of his dire, four-year condition, because they only watch the MSM and SM platforms that censor any negative coverage of Biden. Then, although the debate was held on one of the culpable media outlets, CNN, they could not hide or control Biden, because it was a national presidential debate. Now they are suddenly shocked, after eight years of vile bullying, harassment, lies, false indictments, phoney investigations, Stalinist show trials against President Trump - bullying and harassment that civilized society abhors. Bullying and epithets that fit like a glove into their misinformation, disinformation and hate speech. A very dark time for America. A very dark time for the Democrat Party that must be thoroughly purged and cleaned out before moving forward.

Loraine Jones How old are you, Loraine Jones? Because your statement is childish and uninformed. Firstly, the Iranian militia attacked the U.S. embassy. No one in the U.S. started it. Secondly, what kind of an upbringing have you had that you think it is just fine to call anyone a mfr, let alone the president who has delivered the best economy for all ethnic groups ever and has the courage not to allow a second Benghazi situation, such as Hillary Clinton allowed. Maybe take some time to start learning about recent Middle East events and Hillary Clinton's and Obama's decisions and actions that have caused death and destruction to millions in the Middle East and caused the worst crisis in Europe since WW2. I suggest you also learn about the goals of extreme Islamists and terrorists, including the consequences to the West if you ignore their goals, or just let them attack Western installations and the West itself, while ignorant people call for no retaliation, opening the door to more attacks, death and destruction. There are plenty of books written by Muslims who explain clearly the consequences of ignoring the Islamist uprising. I suggest you research them and become informed for the sake of your family. By the way, the first step to becoming informed is to stop watching CNN. It is no longer a reputable news outlet. In fact it is no longer a news outlet at all. It is a goebbelsian arm of the corrupt democrats, who are doing everything they can 24/7 to bring the president down. I suspect you don't understand where the word "goebbelsian" comes from. Learn about that too, and how closely the modus operandi of outlets such as CNN now resemble those strategies and tactics. Fortunately, more and more Americans are waking up to media corruption, and CNN's ratings are plummeting.

@jag5014 Did you ever read that agreement? Even the summary of the agreement? If you did not, then you are not qualified to give your opinion on it. I did read it. It was chilling, shocking!! Would have, without any doubt, have put the whole ME area in serious danger and would, without doubt, if the clerics remained in charge, have resulted in nuclear confrontation within that region. Since the 2016 presidential campaign, I have found it alarming at the epithets, slander and innuendos from the left. (Typical right-wing chicken hawk). Think about what you have said there, without, apparently, any knowledge of the area whatsoever. How do you think the ISIS and follow-up mess occurred in Syria, Iraq, then Libya? HILLARY CLINTON, and to use your words CHICKEN HAWK). She has been one of the most hawkish politicians in our lifetime.
HILLARY CLITON had a highly misguided, and when one actually researches her decisions and actions in the ME, astonishingly naive, strategy of regime change. She took it upon herself, as if she were some world dictator, to decide to go into a country, where she had no business, in an attempt to remove its leader. (Ukraine, by the way, a leftover of that dangerous regime-change strategy). When asked at a book signing why she assisted the terrorists, she responded that they were only "moderate rebels." You can find that video on line. Those Hillary Clinton "moderate rebels" were nothing but Syrian home-grown and insurgent terrorists. Assad had the home-grown terrorists safely locked up in his prisons. So their supporters came up with a strategy. Rebel against the appalling conditions in Assad's prisons as a ruse for foreign support. Hillary Clinton fell for it. It fit in with her regime-change goals. She assisted the terrorists with funds and weapons. That was the beginning of the infiltration of ISIS and massive death and destruction in Syria and Iraq. Even if one believes in regime change (which by the way, people on your left-liberal side are now screaming and ranting against -- ironic, considering their love affair with Hillary Clinton), that should have been something negotiated with diplomacy, not by starting a civil war. As for her decisions and actions in Libya, leading up to Benghazi, her naivete and recklessness were chilling. The various waring factions in that country saw her coming. They played her. To cut a long story short, she again assisted them to continue her regime-change modus operandi. All hell broke loose. If you don't think she is a vicious hawk, find the video of her crackling and laughing, "We came, we saw, he died," referring to Qaddafi, the leader, who was by that time starting to co-operate with the West. I am sure you saw the treacherous way he was killed, played live for the world to see. Her actions in Libya resulted in the collapse of Libya, chaos, destruction death, the largest modern slave trade, and a huge people-smuggling operation (including highly uninformed Western NGOs), and the most serious crisis in Europe since WW2, along with the largest humanitarian crisis witnessed in our lifetime.
If you want a decent life, without war, I suggest you start actually learning about the details of the various continuously on-going wars, how they start, and in this case the goals of the terrorists waging those wars. You probably won't read this, but others will -- others who are interested in the facts, whatever their political leanings. As a woman, shocked by the number of women who support Hillary Clinton who has a documented record of corruption, felonious activities and enabling serial sexual abuse, I started to question liberals and anti-Trumpers to find out why. I discovered, without exception, they knew absolutely nothing about either Trump's or Clinton's record, political platforms, philosophies and goals. They supported Hillary Clinton because she is a woman (to hell with history or suitability), or because she advocated large government spending (check the current US deficit), welfare and open borders (yes, she confessed that to her pay-for-play bankers), or because corrupt news outlets, now merely political PR arms, told them to hate Trump and lied that he had colluded with Russians. One couldn't make this stuff up. Shockingly, those who watched and continue to watch or read the corrupt media are being seriously exploited for being uninformed. You should be outraged by that.

@Strawberry Plains -- I agree, especially in our days of cable (numbered) and the internet, let alone the government/liberal hands that feed them.
Meanwhile, I have stopped watching this interview. Kudos for this guy's change, but he went pig hunting, to Nascar races, gun shows, evangelical services to find out about conservatives. Does anyone else detect a subconscious bias about conservatives in his choices?
Conservatives come from all walks of life, lower, middle and upper class; blue and white collar; employees and entrepreneurs; men and women; religious, agnostic, and atheist; black, white and hispanic; on and on....
My bet would be that most liberals, as they are today, have a definite government connection/dependency.

@krisoluich9119 I am sorry, Kris, but those with sizeable chunks to invest have to do their homework. Take the time to learn about what they are doing. Not put their eggs in one basket. Make sure the fund manager actually works within the industry and is registered. Kevin Bacon probably didn't know about the required registration of portfolio managers (that also signifies their qualifications), but that is part of my point. It's pretty easy to learn just the basic stuff, especially when a ton of money is involved. A huge problem today that also shows up in politics is that crucial subjects are not taught in school. I believe school systems should be overhauled to include, not only maths, all the sciences, history geography, political systems, etc., but also economics, finance, investing, business, life planning (correlating goals, career, family, finances, investing, etc.). Knowledge would greatly curtail such frauds, as well as creating voters who actually understand the issues.

Of course Trump was quite right for calling the media "the enemy of the people," because that is what they have become. Their loss of professional journalism is one of the major crises we fact today, so dire the consequences on democracy. Meanwhile, I remember cringing time and time again, and again, at how rude and vicious the liberal media was to Trump during his press conferences and, in fact, throughout his presidency. They brought "journalism" to new lows, all the way down below the line of journalism, down further below the line of reporting, down further to pure goebbelsian propaganda.

Tell us, Deen Law, how and why did the war start. You obviously have no idea. If you had any idea you would never have posted such an incorrect statement. Hint: This war started 8 years ago, when the US mounted the bloody Maidan Coup in Ukraine, to oust a president because he favored friendly trade relations with Russia. That would have rained on US profiteering and plundering in Ukraine that relied on a Ukraine/NATO/EU relationship. You might want to refresh your memory about specific Biden plundering (Burisma). That coup spilled into a civil war and the Ukrainian Azov Militia/army shelling of civilian areas in the Donbass. To date, over 14,000 Russian men, women and children have been killed in that shelling. The shelling continues today. Putin relentlessly called for diplomacy to stop the shelling. His calls fell on deaf ears. Biden proactively called for hatred of, and war with, Russia and Russians. His exact reasoning has never been specified - just that Putin is evil with no justification for that statement whatsoever. Putin has never done anything to the US or the EU. In fact it was Ukraine waging war on Russian speaking Ukrainians and Russians in Donbass. Putin had not other choice but to invade, as an ally of Donetsk and Luhansk, to stop the shelling/killing, stop US/NATO aggression, and finally end the 8-year war.

@Dan Atatakai - You have to be kidding us? You obviously know nothing about economics. You obviously missed the stream of business executives who have said loudly and clearly on video (you can find them on the internet) that they are staying in the U.S., returning to the U.S., expanding in the U.S., creating more jobs in the U.S., because of Donald Trump's pro-business platform (tax cuts and road to repatriate trillions of dollars; end of the absurd, extremely costly, make-work government regulations that serve no one other than the bureaucrats who create and enforce them; legislation towards fair trade; re-supply of military equipment, etc.)
Barack Obama more than doubled the national debt to over $20 trillion. Yes, that word is "trillion" -- beyond human imagination. That, my friend, is one of the most seriously adverse situations for business EVER.
I suggest you start reading up on business, finance and economics. I suggest that, if you think Obama was great for business, you be specific with correct fact and figures -- not a vacuous comment that means absolutely nothing other than to expose your support for a president who, sadly, turned out to be one of the worst and most corrupt presidents in U.S. history. Why corrupt? Start learning about the attempted illegal, traitorous coup against President Trump that, according to the plotters' own text messages went all the way to the White House.

Is President Trump going overboard about the press?!! That is a stupid question for anyone who has watched the shameful deterioration of mainstream news into fake mainstream press (other than segments of Fox) -- a complete loss of professional journalism from outlets such as CNN, MSNBC, New York Times, Washington Post -- hair curling, shocking, ignoring important news, complete made-up and false news, no checks, no authentic sources, political agendas and opinions dressed up as news, cutting off differing opinions, unacceptable and relentless bias and attacks against President Trump, continued support for Hillary Clinton, a deeply corrupt politician and enabler of sexual abuse, mitigating or not covering at all the shocking Russian collusion of Hillary Clinton, the DNC and top Dems, along with their treasonous plots, the most serious political scandal in U.S. history.
I could go on and on. Keep it up, President Trump. The loss of professional journalism in the mainstream news is deeply disturbing and incredibly dangerous.

Take apart someone who is being posh and went to public school? Are you kidding? WHY, WHY ON EARTH WHY? Is your answer to the vileness of identity politics and push for equal outcomes, rather than equal opportunities (the foundation of the nonsense of only accepting scripts with 50% of the parts for women or those who "identify as women"), to demean those who are fortunate to have gone to much better schools and behave in a decent, common-sense way, with manners, knowledge, common sense and self-sufficiency. Surely, the answer for those who are jealous of public school graduates is to insist that the state schools drastically improve their teaching, subjects given, discipline and requirement for assessment by meritocracy.

@Brian McDonald -- Where have you been over the past year? Our whole judicial system is based on the rule of law and nobody is above the law? Are you kidding us? Hillary Clinton is running free. She set up an independent server over which classified and confidential informations was transferred (felony). She lied to congress about her server, emails and Benghazi (felonies). She tampered with and destroyed subpoenaed evidence (felony).
The special counsel was set up without cause. Special counsels require a crime to have been committed. Donald Trump has not been found guilty of any crime. It turns out it was Hillary Clinton colluding with the Russians. She bought and payed for (costing her over $12 million) a phoney Russian dossier, originated by a foreign national (ex British spy) and padded by her own smear merchants (Blumenthal and Shearer) loaded with false information about Donald Trump, which dossier was used illegally to obtain a warrant to spy on a political opponent and his team to influence the election and bring him down if he won. That, my friend, is an attempted coup. That, my friend, amounts to treason, and not one of the cabal has actually been charged yet, although criminal referrals have been issued against McCabe.
None of that is hearsay. It has been proven through emails, the courts, congressional hearings and investigations and internal FBI investigations. Shame on anyone who attempts to mitigate or ignore this massive political scandal or project it on to Donald Trump in an attempt to bring him down, because, indeed, nobody is supposed to be above the law, but that is far from the case right now. A band of democrats should have been charged. Hopefully, they will be charged. They deserve to be in prison for a very long time, and that includes Hillary Clinton, at the centre of this shameful scandal.

@HenryFWagons -- How old are you, Henry? Just read your comment again. See if you can analyze it from an adult perspective. You watch the mainstream fake news outlets, don't you? How do I know? Because you are under the impression that Donald Trump lies. My guess is that I have been around a whole lot longer than you. How do I guess that? People of my generation were educated under a far better education system. We were taught how to debate; what is an argument; what is not; what makes sense; what does not. Many who have been educated in dumbed-down education systems have not been taught how to debate with reason and intelligence, based on the facts. "How the hell do you think Trump is going to stop himself from lying," is a puerile statement, not an argument, without background, biased conjecture, and as bigoted as it gets. Not an argument.
As I mentioned, my guess is that I have been around a whole lot longer than you. There has never before in the history of the U.S. been such an open transparent president as Donald Trump -- certainly not in my time; and I have witnessed a whole pile of presidents. He's straight forward, direct, gets immediately to the point. That's how things get done. That's one reason he is so popular, albeit, the fake mainstream media is doing everything it can to make people he's unpopular and lies.
On that note, you might want to recall Bill Clinton. More than once he flat out lied directly to the nation. His actions resulted in his being both disbarred and impeached.
You might also want to recall the outcome of one of Hillary Clinton's first stints as a lawyer. A democrat fired her for, in his words, being "an unethical, dishonest lawyer and a liar." As she was practising law at the time, in decent society, that should have been the end of any public career for her. She also recently lied to congress about her server, emails and Benghazi (felonies). Yet, unbelievably, liberals throw all ethics to the wind, and accept her corruption without protest. How do they explain such appalling reactions to their children?
Unfortunately, the liberal mainstream media long ago lost any semblance of professional journalism. Watching the clips of their puerility, unbelievable bias, opinions dressed up as news, and spewing irrational hatred of President Trump is chilling -- hair curling. The loss of professional journalism is one of the worst crises we face today. It is so dangerous when people are fed such unadulterated, bigoted, hatred -- told he lies, with insular, uninformed watchers believing it.
Liberals cannot even make an argument that the conservative view of the liberal mainstream fake media is just an opinion. The media was caught, red handed, through its own exposed emails, colluding with Hillary Clinton, the DNC and the Democrats. It is shameful, not least to the immigrants they hypocritically profess to support, because many of those immigrants fled to the United States because of the very same tyranny -- closed down free speech and government propaganda dressed up as news.
If you believe yourself sufficiently informed, with precognition, to accuse Donald Trump of future lies, be a man, show yourself as educated. Step up to the plate. Tell us, with sources and substantiation, when he lied. We will then be in a position to debate you. I can assure you, you will lose, because one thing President Trump does not do is lie.
(And as you are doing your research for the debate, remember that candidates run on the basis of political platforms. They are not promises; they are goals. No intelligent person, for one minute, is under the illusion that they are promises. Presidents have to work with congress, budgets and complex issues. Intelligent people are happy with someone who follows through and goes the extra mile to fulfil his goals. President Trump is doing that in spades.

@Zero Zero -- Firstly, I don't believe Trump has commented on whether he had an affair with Stormy Daniels; however, he might have had an affair with Stormy Daniels (her name speaks for itself doesn't it). It also appears as if she agreed to sign a non-disclosure agreement.
If he did, it happened long before he was president and was consensual. People are asked to sign non-disclosure agreements all the time for all kinds of reasons. Affairs go on all the time as well. If those who do sign them disclose the details, then they are in contravention of the agreement and have broken the law, with legal consequences. That appears to be what this porn star has done.
To put things into perspective, I suggest you review Bill Clinton's sexual activities. He was impeached and disbarred as a result of his sexual misconduct and lies. He had to pay over $800,000 to Paula Jones, with whom he did not have an affair but outright molested. Years before, he cut short his Rhodes Scholar stint at Oxford, because he was accused of rape.
He did have a consensual, extra-marital, twelve-year with Gennifer Flowers. He lied about that too and told the nation he did not know her. Can you imagine being involved with a man for twelve years, then have him tell everyone he did not know you? You seem to be bothered by consensual affairs; then surely you must also be very concerned by such dismissive behavior towards the mistress.
Bill Clinton, after many other documented inappropriate liaisons with women -- consensual and forced -- went on to molest an intern in his office. Yes, the word is "molest," because in the workplace, there is no such thing as consensual sex between the CEO, in a position of authority, and a very young intern. Any corporate CEO caught in the same situation would have been escorted out the door immediately, no questions asked.
Frankly, @Zero Zero, intelligent people don't give a damn whether President Trump had an affair with Stormy Daniels. We care that he is on the road to denuclearizing the Korean Peninsular; that he is extremely well received by foreign leaders; that he's the first president able to make headway in restoring balanced trade between China and the U.S.; that he's on track to squash the Iran agreement (Ever read the summary of that agreement? I suggest you do, because President Trump is right. it is an unbelievably bad agreement fraught with nuclear danger for the Middle East and the world.); that the economy and employment for minorities is the best it has ever been; that he actually cares about keeping America safe and preventing immigrant-implosion of the country.
Meanwhile, with all the issues on which President Trump is focused, you are up in arms about Stormy Daniels?! That is beyond incredulous!
Hypothetical: A man offers to come into your house to arrest and stop a robber intent on murder; and you decline the offer, because the man many once have had a quick fling with a porn star by the name of Stormy Daniels. One couldn't make up such illogical, foggy thinking and sheer irrational, bigoted hatred of a legitimately elected president, because the mainstream press made a deal (documented) with the devil, Hillary Clinton, the DNC and the Democrats and now preys on people who either don't have the time or the wherewithal to find out the facts. You should be outraged by that.

Perhaps this woke general should find it offensive that armed ANTIFA & BLM terrorists have rampaged through US cities, attacking, killing, burning, smashing, breaking in, occupying & looting. Not one of Trump supporters who demonstrated in the Capitol was armed. Not one destroyed property
He should familiarize himself with John Sullivan, a self-declared black, BLM insurrectionist. He posted a video, advising his followers what to wear, what equipment to take, and what weapons to carry in his planned raid of the Capitol. He then liaised with his followers on Twitter with no objections from Jack Dorsey. He led the charge into the Capitol. Filmed and narrated the invasion in the Capitol and shouted to his cohorts about their chance. Then CNN & MSNBC interviewed him as a hero before he was arrested.

If the ignorant Liz Truss were to become PM of Britain, it would be the death knell of already collapsing Britain. There would be no tax funds for Britain. She would send them all to Ukraine. Ukraine, that highly corrupt, bankrupt country, That country that Biden and his beholden UK, EU lap dogs are intent on destroying in their effort to destroy Russia. Liz Truss threatened to wipe Russia off the map, then, unbelievably, flew to Moscow for discussions with Sergey Lavrov, one of the most experienced, respected diplomats in the world. Her behavior towards him was abominable: threatening, chilling and ignorant. He was disgusted. Putin and Lavrov had consistently called for diplomacy to end the Ukrainian genocide against Donbass Russians. Diplomacy could have ended the eight-year genocide against Donbass civilians and prevented the current hostilities. Liz Truss's behavior was a trigger. It confirmed that the West was not interested in peace. Within two days Putin recognized Donetsk and Luhansk in the Donbass as independent states (independent status already granted by the Minsk Agreement and ignored by corrupt Ukraine), They asked him for Russia's help to end the genocide against them. Russia formed the SMO, and along with its allies, entered Ukraine to end it.
Millions were killed in WW2 fighting genocide, nazism, and an evil government in Germany. Today Russia is fighting the very same evils in Ukraine. The UK and West, on the other hand, after WW2, have chosen to support and join those very same evils in Ukraine. MADNESS and PURE EVIL - and these supposedly educated leaders want this dangerous, nazi-supporting woman as PM! You couldn't make it up!

Be very sure you understand that the Democrat Party is no longer a party of classical liberalism. It is now spreading dangerous totalitarian fascism and socialism, in collusion with big business. The spread of totalitarian fascism in pre-war Germany relied heavily on cooperation of big business. The aim of the Democrat Party is to keep people down in reliance upon, and controlled by, the government (taxpayers who have not been trapped by government). Meanwhile, the Trump Republican Party is the party of the ordinary men and women striving to make a living on stagnant wages. Trump Republicans believe in policy and actions to lift people up into self-sufficiency with fair and honest business. That is why he is so popular.
When President Trump was in office, I would listen to Trump-hating liberals (not understanding that the Democrat Party consisted of neoliberals) arguing for higher wages. They had no idea that one reason CEOs would not support Trump is that he is adamantly against the exploitative outsourcing/insourcing of cheap labor that keeps wages down, destroys jobs, decimates manufacturing and turns cities into hell holes. CEOs want the status quo to grow profits on the backs of cheap labor. They don't see the decimation of the cities in their gated communities. The "liberals" I speak to have no idea. They simply shout out epithets they have heard about Trump on CNN et al: racist, misogynist, anti-gay, etc., irrational media-spread hatred without a thread of evidence.

King Charles, by his actions, has been expressing a personal preference, indirectly siding with corrupt Ukraine/Zelensky for a long time. I have no doubt - and you can correct me, if I am wrong - that the King does have input into his events. He invited the corrupt, war-mongering, despotic dictator, Zelensky, to his private home, Sandringham (vs. a state palace), and happily posed for photographs featuring just himself and Zelensky. As a supporter of the British Constitutional Monarchy, that had me thinking time for the RF to go.
As for Harry and Meghan MARKLE, the King's and Britain's inability to strip them of their titles and rival Montecito court (commercializing the Sussex name, royal connectoin & engaging in pretend royal tours) is not playing out well for the RF. Harry, MM, and Harry's kids should be stripped of all titles, except for Harry's "prince," but no dripping down, domino prince/princess titles for Harry's kids. After what they have done to the RF and Britain, it is shocking that no punitive actions have been taken.

UK politicians can, out of unbelievable ignorance, or deliberate ineptness, continue to ignore the bull elephant in the room, evil warmongering, or they can muster the moral courage to take the first four vital steps to end Britain's economic and social implosion:
(1) End all sanctions against Russia and Russians.
(2) End all clandestine and official support for Ukraine, including funding, weapons, training, support of Ukrainian genocide against Donbass Russians, Ukrainian targeting of Russian-Ukrainian civilians, nazism in Ukraine, propping up a totally bankrupt, corrupt, Ukrainian government that allows no opposition.
(3) Immediately deport all migrants landing in Britain (no hearings; they are illegals) and dramatically reduce far-too high legal immigration.
(4) Start immediate action to create new MIC models to end the requirement for war to generate profits. Curb destructive alliances among the MIC, politicians and the City.
How about Britain coming to terms with its much diminished geopolitical realty to become a neutral country, just with an ace home guard to prevent migrant, NATO and other invasions and focus on rebuilding British innovation and industrial success, while deterring US interference and hegemony.
Russia, under Putin, never did anything untoward towards to the US, UK, EU, WEST. Where are British journalists? Not one seems to have aggressively questioned the reason for war against Russia, using Ukrainian men as proxy fodder to die for US/UK evil intentions. The politicians will respond that Putin is evil, because he invaded Ukraine. The press will not ask why he invaded Ukraine.
Putin and Lavrov consistently and relentlessly called for diplomacy to end Ukrainian genocide against Donbass Russian civilians and US/NATO aggression. The US, UK, EU, WEST refused, hence the SMO to end the genocide.
Liz Truss declared war on Russia BEFORE the SMO. She screeched that Britain would target anyone in the Kremlin who had anything to do with the continuation of Russia, an ignorant, reckless declaration of war and intent to wipe Russia off the map. The SMO was formed after her abominable behavior towards Lavrov in Moscow.
Their doesn't appear to be any pushback against this immoral, unethical, evil war against Russia that is imploding Britain the EU, and not least the US, the instigator of this war for undeclared, depraved, unacceptable reasons, details of which belong in another thread.
The first two tasks are easy. Simply leaders with courage and leadership skills. The second two tasks are more in depth and long term, but just the public intentions for change will start the process of saving Britain.

Yes indeed, Russian-Ukrainians, civilians, being targeted by the Ukrainian Azov forces, targeting civilian areas, schools, hospitals, apartment buildings, homes and civilians themselves. It all played out live on video as it happened by the courageous, independent reporters who filed reports and testimonies, as they happened from the front, unlike the MSM filing reports from bushes in gardens of Kiev hotels -- surface untrue reports, like Meghan and Harry.

Before Trump and Putin, these puerile "writers" and "journalists" were signing up for dumbed-down universities and journalism schools, where communications, writing, journalism, logic, common sense, history, politics, etc. are no longer taught, and where they were marked relatively (with the dumb group) and not absolutely (with test scores).

Bitter sweet. I do hope that since the posting of this documentary in 2018, that the parents decided to move to Kathmandu. (The introduction suggests that they did.) It would be a shame if one or both of the young daughters decided to return to the village, out of guilt, for such a difficult, poverty-ridden life. The father, such a sweet man, but tied to traditions that cannot work in our modern age. The mother embittered by those traditions. I wish them all the best, still a family, despite hardship and lives apart; and all with beautiful souls. Thank you for this excellent documentary, and thank you to the family for allowing it to be made. I hope they received some financial compensation for the documentary. Perma made the right decision for himself, and one that likely resulted in the parents living an easier life in Kathmandu.

Just two instances of charges. The rest of the seditious plotters still walk free, and one of them, a thief, riddled with dementia, now squats in the White House! (White House meeting on Jan.
5, 2017, attended by Biden et al, at which Biden was particularly proactive, as they plotted to frame an innocent man, General Flynn, knowing he was innocent. They wanted him framed to get Trump and to prevent Flynn from carrying out his plans for the intelligence services that would not only have streamlined the services, upsetting their nefarious activities, but also, more importantly, would have exposed the Democrat corruption within the intelligence services.
Shame on authorities for being so docile against the deep Democrat corruption that only two have been charged, and a Biden Regime is now sweeping totalitarian fascism across America!

How typical of CNN to feature close ups of Hillary Clinton whose behavior is so directly opposed to the spirit of the eulogy and who was so rude to President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump when they arrived. Hillary Clinton, a woman consumed with hate and blame, two attributes that do absolutely nothing for society -- close ups of the Clintons who have created so much harm and corruption, and none of President Trump who is doing so much to improve the country and life for ordinary people, and Melania Trump who is always gracious, bright and well informed.
Meanwhile, such an amazing eulogy from former President George Bush, not known for eloquence, delivering it with such grace, dignity, pride and eloquence.

Private banksters, themselves, have already left the starting gate of deciding who is socially optimal and who is not. Chase, a bank that has run deeply afoul of the law, ethics, decency, and honesty and delved deeply into corruption, resulting in total recent fines of $35,851,437,155, closed the accounts of General Flynn and his wife, with razor sharp hypocrisy, stating their accounts represented reputational risk to the bank. You will recall that General Flynn was framed by the FBI. At a meeting at the White House on Jan. 5, 2017, Obama, BIDEN, et al plotted how to frame an innocent man, General Flynn, knowing he was innocent. They did not want his plans for the intelligence community to come to fruition, thereby exposing the ineptness and corruption within the US intelligence community. General Flynn had done absolutely nothing wrong, but the decision in that meeting was passed on to the FBI that went to work on one of the most shameful smearing campaigns in US history, hoping to kill two birds with one stone: destroy General Flynn and get rid of President Trump.

Astonishing that Ann Widdecombe, of all people, would admire the chilling, reckless, threatening, dangerous, ignorant, Liz Truss. Liz Truss's reckless declaration of war against Russia BEFORE its SMO to defeat Ukrainian genocide against the Donbass Russians, was instrumental in initiating the current hostilities, death and destruction we we are witnessing today, as she goads British and Ukrainian men to fight and die as proxy fodder for her evil intentions.
British leaders have messed up Britain socially and economically, but the most abominable actions of British leaders EVER, has been engaging in a manufactured war against Russia, the real reason for which they have never expressed. Putin is "evil," they shriek for invading Ukraine, as their justification for sending Ukrainian men to die. But Putin IS NOT EVIL. Boris Johnson & Liz Truss are evil. Putin and Lavrov, since 2014, have consistently called for diplomacy to end the Ukrainian Azov genocide against Ukrainian Russians. The West refused. Diplomacy would have ended the genocide and prevented the current hostilities.
Before Russia's SMO, Liz Truss threatened to wipe Russia off the map. To hell with the lives of 144,000,000 Russians, or the Ukrainians who die fighting. Russia, under Putin, has NEVER threatened Britain or done anything harmful or untoward to Britain. Liz Truss's exact words were that Britain would "hit targets including those who are key to the Kremlin's continuation of the Russian Regime." A reckless declaration of war. Why? What for? What does Britain owe failed Biden that it would follow his orders to side with, and support, genocide, nazism, highly corrupt government and a tyrannical dictator, the very same horrors against which millions died fighting against Germany in WW2.
Support Liz Truss, and that is what you are supporting. The real reason for this vile war against Russia? To generate profits for the Military Industrial Complex. Bodies For Profit. Pure Evil. To generate profits and contracts for the Financial, Insurance and Real Estate Sector to rebuild Ukraine after destroying it. To tear Russia apart to divide it up into Western elite, globalist spheres of influence to plunder its resources. The largest invasion and colonization ever planned in human history.
Shame on Britain if Liz Truss becomes prime minister.

The reality: This war was a US hegemonic war to tear Russia apart, using Ukraine as the bloody battlefield and supplier of unwilling Ukrainian conscripts to die as proxy fodder for evil US/NATO/West paleo, cold-war, regime-change ambitions. The US-initiated Maidan Coup was the door to US interference and US military brass on Ukrainian ground. The US willingly and very handsomely paid Ukraine/Zelensky for its lethal, dirty work on behalf of the US, pretending to the uninformed that it was all about helping Ukraine. (The population wouldn't have been so placid if they knew it was an offensive war to tear Russia apart.) The Maidan Coup spilled into Civil War that in turn triggered US/NATO/West-supported genocide against the Donbass Russians (Donetsk and Luhansk). Concurrently Ukraine was rolling out diabolical legislation to discriminate and ethnically cleanse Russian-Ukrainians, many of whom lived in the east. America's war blended in with the Ukrainian civil war - Ukrainians against Russian-Ukrainians. Russia activated its SMO after Putin recognized Donetsk and Luhansk as independent states OUTSIDE Ukraine, after the US/NATO/West/Ukraine ignored his calls - pre- and post-Minsk Agreement for peace and independence for Donetsk and Luhansk WITHIN Ukraine. They asked Russia for help to end the Ukrainian genocide against them. Accordingly Russia activated its SMO to end the Ukrainian genocide, discrimination and ethnic cleansing, nazism, and militarization against Russian-Ukrainians, which horrors were threatening Russia, as well as to end the US/NATO/West acts of war against Russia from Ukraine, a non-NATO country. Those Ukrainian horrors led to Ukraine's losing territory. It will never be returned.
President Trump is sweeping US culpability for starting the war under the rug. Without admitting US culpability, he simply blames Biden for funding the war - helping Ukraine - and not ending it. In my view that is a serious mistake. Overcoming US culpability has to be a foundation for serious and lasting peace, as well as on-going cooperation with Russia. It puts an unpleasant light on Trump's proposed Ukrainian resources deal - siphoning 50% of Ukraine's resources (revenues) for the US, when Ukraine was the US's ally and proxy, with 1.8 million Ukrainian men KIA. I don't know why Trump is doing this. Is it because he doesn't like being a loser, even if it means world peace? Or is it because he's tipping his hat to on-going MIC support? Or is it simply because he's not up to scratch with the reality? A shame, because his actions in the US are incredible - historically iconic.

I expect, in the the atmosphere of CRT and misnomered CRT tagline, "Diversity, Equity, Inclusion," on these campuses, that any ethics courses will be highly flawed, corrupt and racist. Harvard's racist acceptance principles, challenged in the courts, and blown out of the water by the SCOTUS, is evidence of what we might seen in any Harvard ethics courses.

A continuous mantra of Joe Biden and Ursula von der Leyer (do you even know who she is): We will tear Russia and Russians apart " to the last Ukrainian, as long as it takes," they wickedly howl. Imagine if Putin or Jinping uttered those vile words against the US - something like, " We will tear America and Americans apart, to the last Canadian, as long as it takes." Do you think the US would sit on its laurels and not fight back? Do you think Canada would allow it to happen, as Zelensky is allowing it to happen?
Biden started this war. All the history, events and players (much of the recent history live on video) are on the internet. You can research it all for free. Biden started it, wickedly using Ukraine as a proxy battlefield and unwilling Ukrainian conscripts to die as proxy fodder for his evil ambitions. To date over 500,000 have been KIA, funded by the US -- you, in fact, through your taxes. Bodies for profit. Pure unadulterated evil. How do we know the conscripts are unwilling? Hundreds of videos showing them being captured at gunpoint by Zelensky's SBU to be sent to the front for certain death, while Zelensky and his wife travel the world begging for more and more funds for more and more death, sit for Vogue, and attend elite Western functions.

@festekj Indeed! The US/Biden started the war! It is not even about Ukraine. Ukraine is merely the US's rented killing field, using unwilling Ukrainian conscripts to die as proxy fodder for its evil intentions against Russia. It is a US manufactured war against Russia for MIC, FIRE, OGAM profits, hoped-for plunder of Russian territories, hegemonic control and colonization.
The only care the US has for Ukraine is as a US colony with a huge military base.
US propaganda is designed to justify its aggression against Russia by making uninformed people believe it has something to do with safeguarding Ukrainian freedom and democracy, when Ukraine is actually a bankrupt, corrupt anti-democratic, totalitarian-fascist despotic country, run by a tyrannical, US, puppet dictator.

@genestarwind4610 Just a very few of the numerous facts. You are making yourself look extremely foolish and ignorant.
The FBI mounted a plot against President Trump. That is a fact.
During her failed presidential race, Hillary Clinton fabricated a lie about Trump/Russia collusion to detract from her email scandal. That is a fact. How do we know? John Brennan, head of the CIA at the time, briefed Obama about it. That briefing has been released to the public.
Hillary Clinton then funded a false dossier to back up her lies. How do we know? Her laundered funds have been traced from the DNC, through her dodgy law firm, Perkins Coie, to her smear agents, Fusion GPS, who were working with a former British spy Christopher Steele to create the false dossier. How do we know it was false? The prime source, Igor Danchenko, a suspected Russian spy, who worked for the ultra-left think tank, the Brookings Institute, told us so in sworn testimony under FBI questioning and from documentation in the Alfa Bank court case in Europe. Also affidavits from the same case have proven that the named sub-sources had absolutely nothing to do with the dossier.
The false dossier was then used to defraud the FISA Court to obtain warrants to spy on innocent Americans in an attempt to obtain dirt on President Trump. No dirt was obtained. How do we know? From direct testimony of the incidents from the targeted individuals.
The first plotter indicted, a lawyer, Kevin Clinesmith, pled guilty to altering an email to defraud the FISA Court in order to illegally obtain warrants to spy on innocent Americans in an attempt to obtain dirt on President Trump.
A second lawyer, Michael Sussman, has been indicted for lying when he provided false information to the FBI and another agency supposedly linking the Trump Campaign to the Alfa Bank. The Alfa Bank just won its court case against Christopher Steele who has been ordered to pay huge sums to two plaintiffs.
On Jan. 5, 2017, Obama, Biden et al held a meeting at the White House, during which they plotted to frame an innocent man, knowing he was innocent, and set their plot in motion. His name is General Flynn. He had done nothing wrong. They wanted to get rid of him as National Security Advisor, because he had plans to overhaul the intelligence community, as well as knowing too much about their shady activities in Ukraine. Also getting rid of him, they reasoned, would bring President Trump down. Biden was particularly proactive in that meeting, suggesting that they use the Logan Act against General Flynn. The Logan Act was enacted in 1799 to prevent people without authority from dealing with foreign governments. No one has ever been convicted under that archaic act. General Flynn had kept the relevant authorities informed about all his meetings before becoming NSA that may have had Russian officials attending, and as incoming NSA, he had authority. Meanwhile, Biden's drug addicted son was tripping across the world dealing with foreign governments without authority. He was the bagman for Biden's foreign influence peddling.
How do we know about that meeting? From Susan Rice's CYA note on her computer and from their own meeting notes, later released to the public through a FOIA request or lawsuit (can't remember which).
How do we know about Biden's foreign influence peddling? Peter Schweizer first disclosed the details of the Biden corruption in his book "Secret Empires," published in 2018. Joe Biden's sharing in the profits of the corrupt influence peddling were concretely proved in documents from Hunter Biden's laptop. Both information about, and documents on, the laptop were censored by Facebook and Twitter as well as the corrupt mainstream media before the election, in order that Biden supporters would not know about it.
How do we know about much of the FBI's plot against President Trump? From Peter Strzok's and Lisa Page's emails.
Etc...........................

@genestarwind4610 I could fill this whole thread with the facts. It is not the forum for that. Go and learn the facts, because, as I said, you are looking more and more foolish. Let alone that not learning the facts ends up hurting you and your family the most. Voting in ignorance ends up with the wrong people in office. Then you wonder why things go so wrong. They go so wrong because people, such as you, vote in ignorance. If you were ethical, honest and had integrity, you would learn the facts -- and they are not pretty on the Democrat side, then either switch or demand that your party come clean and that the culprits of the plots and corruption be held accountable, before the party moves on with a clean slate. Because of people like you, the US now has corrupt people back in power, with apparent intentions to destroy the country and redesign it with a totalitarian fascist regime. If you can't see this, then you don't know enough about political systems, or you actually support totalitarian fascism.

@neilreynolds3858 Absolutely, the war in Ukraine is nothing less than a US manufactured, hegemonic war against Russia, using Ukraine and Ukrainian conscripts as proxies to fight the evil US war (supported by all its cowardly bootlicking UK/EU/West leaders), with PR bs that we are supporting Ukraine's "freedom and democracy, both of which do not exist in Ukraine, and that Putin started the war, when the timeline of events leads directly to the US starting the war.
Side goals of this vile war: MIC profits, FIRE (Financial, Insurance, Real Estate) profits, for funding the war efforts, then the clean up after they swarm in to repair their damage, and OGAM (Oil, Gas and Mining) profits, for resources to manufacture weapons, plunder oil, gas and other resources), not to forget kickbacks and money laundering, with handouts to Ukraine partially circling into Western bank accounts.
There were wars against Russia before it became part of the USSR, then the Cold War against the USSR. No one from the former Russia is alive today, and I don't think Britain was involved in the wars against Russia (albeit it dallied around instead of promptly moving in to save the Tsar and his family).
You are so right that, had Putin not become president, the West, particularly the US, would already have almost entirely looted Russia.

@rutous9031 Totally agree with you about Stalin. Time Magazine names people of the year not for positive accomplishments but for influence. Apparently Time named Stalin Man of the Year in 1939, because the Non-Aggression Pact between Germany and the USSR was so significant in giving Hitler more time, as well as supplies, to prepare for war. I don't buy that explanation, as the pact was in August 1939 and Germany started WW2 in September 1939, hardly more time to prepare for war or trade for supplies. Apparently the 1942 Man of the Year was because of Stalingrad; however, that battle didn't end until February 1943, so I don't buy that either. I admit I have quickly skimmed articles about the reasoning, so I might have missed more persuasive reasons. The articles appear to be attempting to justify the awards retrospectively.
Stalin, of course, one of the most evil "leaders" of all time. The starvation of millions in the Ukraine and the Gulag were well underway in 1932. It would be beyond belief that editors of Time Magazine at the time were not aware of the reality under Stalin, so in my view naming Stalin Man of the Year for whatever reason was unconscionable.
Time Magazine has become a pathetic, sorry excuse of a magazine, naming Joe Biden and Kamala Harris Persons of the Year in 2020. Why? Because they stole an election? Because of their non-existent accomplishments? Because they fit Time's liberal message? Or Time showing its real colors! If Time names persons of the year for their impact on world affairs, the naming Joe Biden and Kamala Harris would have been appropriate for 2021, because they have made a colossal mess of the United States and hence world affairs.

@Liberty AboveAllElse Before I respond, Liberty, how old are you? Where were you brought up? Where were your parents? Did you go to second-rate schools? I ask because, you resort to name calling instead of reasoned debate ("blathering moron"). Name calling is nothing less than bullying, a vile and unworthy practice. Now to respond. Trading halts happen all the time for various reasons, including volatility, investigations, liquidity, capital requirements, margin, etc.). We will quite likely find out that these trading halts were to do with liquidity and capital requirements. Would you be the first to cry wolf if the company ignored those issues and allowed trading to continue, thus imploding the whole company and every single client along with it.
I reiterate, that both sides of this situation were wrong, using the market as a battleground for win/lose games that had nothing to do with investing in any one of the companies in play. Only fools would be investing in any one of these companies. Their medium-term prospects are extremely dire. Those who wanted to purchase shares in any one of them, saw a market play to make a quick buck. And by the way, I suggest you look askance at the poor-me, retail investor conspiracy that is being floated. To move the stock up so precipitously in such a short time had to involve day traders and likely institutions, both of whom are hardly amateurs.
As the markets affect every single one of us, directly or indirectly, the importance of market integrity cannot be overemphasized. Integrity of the market means fair, orderly and efficient markets. Win/lose games among gotcha win/lose players should have no place in efficient markets.
Now it appears these 'davids" are moving on to play havoc in the commodities market (silver). If you know anything about the games Soros plays, you should be ashamed of yourself for not having the guts go against the cheering crowd.

Some lawyers are good at banking?!! Nah! Very few. Most have arts undergraduate degrees, and know diddly squat about banking and financing. When it comes time to, say, describe derivatives in a prospectus, they are completely lost. Don't have a clue, so they use another lawyer's work -- even another lawyer at a different firm -- copy the work of that other lawyer who also doesn't understand derivatives. It's called plagiarism -- lawyers are experts at it. Only problem, as they copy more and more, not understanding what they are writing, the result gets worse and worse --- totally illegible. People attribute the complexity of legal writing to legalize. It has nothing to do with legalize (albeit some phrases in law are important, relevant with specific meaning and consequences). It has to do with lawyers not understanding the work, particularly in the financial industry, and being a group of the worst writers in any profession.

Before Meghan Markle was involved with the Royal Family she was an incredibly uninformed, political activist. I don't recall one philanthropic project she founded, funded and successfully ran. She publicly threw puerile epithets President Trump's way, calling him a racist and misogynist, the crying mantras of ignorant, woke, paid demonstrators, without a shred of evidence to back up her claims. Not even an attempt to substantiate her claims. All informed, ethical people - left or right - know Trump is neither a racist nor a misogynist. MM simply spat out epithets she had heard on the likes of CNN.
The astonishing aspect about her puerile activism is that she trashed the leader of the UK's greatest ally, the United States, yet neither the Queen, nor the British parliament objected to her marriage to Prince Harry to become a representative of the British Head of State. If, as the Queen had done with Princess Margaret, she had approved Harry's marriage to MM on the condition that he give up his royal duties, titles, and privileges, things might have turned out differently for the Royal Family. Peter Townsend, whom Princess Margaret had wanted to marry, was a British treasure, a much decorated WW2 pilot, publicly respected and admired, beloved equerry to King George VI, diplomatic and discreet, but divorced (just as MM was divorced), so not suitable.
When faced with that choice, Margaret chose her royal duties, titles and privileges. If Harry had been faced with that choice (before MM's indoctrination), he might have chosen his royal duties and privileges instead of MM, or he might have agreed to relinquish his duties, titles and privileges, saving Britain and the Royal Family from the headache and risks of H's and M's behavior now, counting on their royal titles to catapult their commercial endeavors.
In my view, MM, is unread and undereducated. She thought she could marry a prince and obtain an instant platform for her political activism. She had no idea the Royal Family must be apolitical. As for any chances of ever becoming president. NIL. She's a self-absorbed narcissist, not up to putting in the work required for a presidential bid. For MM, money is an adjunct to any left-wing altruism. A member of congress? Maybe. There are more than a few unread, undereducated members of Congress. If the US wants to climb out of the mess in which it finds itself, creating legislation for threshold qualifications for political candidates might be a very wise idea. Threshold qualifications equivalent to, say, the tough CFA three-year course. MM would never pass such a course.

Before I start, confirmation out today on X of the gross distortion of death statistics from Gaza.
One of the main reasons for Russia's SMO is to end the Ukrainian genocide against Donbass Russians. The war for Russia is also existential, the West having been crystal clear about its intention to tear Russia apart. The number of deaths of Ukrainians is monumental.
The reason for Israel's war in Gaza is retaliation for Hamas's terrorism, heinous atrocities and genocide against Israeli civilians. The war for Israel is also existential, Hamas Gazans having been crystal clear about their intention to decimate Israel "from the river to the sea." The number of deaths of Gazans has been extremely exaggerated and not close to Ukrainians KIA, but significant, as Hamas has blended its terrorist operations with its civilian activities.
Genocide is not tolerated in civilized societies - not under any circumstances - even if it take war and human collateral damage to end it. WW2's European Theatre is a great example of that. Some people support Russia (as I do), despite the monumental death toll, but do not support Israel, despite the large death toll, albeit much smaller than Ukraine's. (I support Israel.)
One cannot selectively pick and choose which cases of genocide to support and which cases of genocide not to support. Genocide is always wrong and must be rooted out, even if that takes war and human collateral damage, as it has done in Gaza, because Hamas has used its own citizens as human shields and blended its terrorist actions with its civilians.
If you don't like the human collateral damage in Gaza - and nobody does - then razor down on the cause: Hamas invasion of Israel and genocide against Israeli citizens. Selectively calling out a country as uncivilized, because it retaliates against genocide, while sympathising with the country that committed the genocide, is treading on very dangerous and ignoble ground.

Let's face it, this is Biden's war against Russia (for some obscure reason), using Ukraine as his proxy, while he unleashes a frenzy of vitriolic hatred among lemmings totally uninformed about this war. Yes, Putin invaded after consistently calling for diplomacy to sort out the dire situation of the Donbass. The calls fell on deaf ears, as Biden upped his threats and treachery. Putin had no other choice other than to invade to end the Azov/Ukrainian shelling of Russians in the Donbass (over 14,000 Russian men, women and children killed in that shelling to date, as Russian troops encircle the Azov Militia to defeat it in order to stop the shelling. Yet Biden and the West call Putin evil for invading to stop such Ukrainian treachery against Russians. Shame on Biden, deeply corrupt, and riddled with dementia, bringing the world close to WW3 for his own wretched self-interest.

@michaelmason2227 President Trump: Graduated from a top military school. Graduated from one of the top business universities in the world. Built a $multi-billion, multi-national, multi-product business from a $million local real-estate business. Beat 26 presidential hopefuls to become president. Despite a rolling coup against him, has delivered the best US economy ever with the best employment for all ethnic groups ever, a direct result of his pro-business platform, reduced taxes, elimination of useless regulations, anti-exploitive outsourcing and insourcing of cheap labor that lowers and/or keep wages down and eliminates jobs, incentives for manufacturing in America, top negotiating skills, transparency and directness, working to eliminate the theft of American technology. The best qualification for presidents are those that President Trump has -- understanding business, economics and finance. Something missing from just about all presidents who managed undergraduate degrees in the arts and then law degrees. How do your qualifications match up, Michael? When you don't understand the qualifications of this president, it brings to question your qualifications and ability to make such a judgement.

@michaelmason2227 As I said, the Trump Republican Party appeals to the people. That includes educated and non-college voters. It has been my experience that conservatives are far more informed. By the way, these days a huge portion of college educated voters are surprisingly and utterly uneducated (a result of Democrat-run colleges and universities). I did not include any generalizations in my comments. Hopefully, you will see the light about the Democrat Party. As an aside, everyone (Republicans, Democrats, Independents, Apoliticals, Religious Adherents, Atheists, Voters, Non-Voters) should be outraged by the sedition and attempted Democrat coup, an affront to the very core of democratic principles. The Democrat candidate who has the guts to condemn the Democrat treatment of President Trump, their corruption now being unearthed daily, and the rolling attempted coup, demand that the culpable be held accountable, and that the party clean itself up before moving forward, will win the Democrat primary. Not the election. Trump is too popular for that, but maybe a chance next time around, if he/she can purge the socialist, open border, identity politics, etc., now thick in that party.

Something that I have not heard discussed is that, with the advent of the internet, dinner or family or social conversations and debates have moved from dinner tables, family rooms, restaurants, social gatherings, etc. to global conversations on the internet. This is the new norm. Obviously politics and social ideas are going to be discussed. Will these global conversations, persuade some to change their ideas? Maybe, maybe not. That is the new political reality. A phrase, once very trendy, fits these highly misguided and dangerous left/liberal censors: There has been a paradigm shift. If you don't adapt, YOU WILL BE LEFT BEHIND.

Let's be very clear here. This was no "whistleblower." It was a democrat operative. Judging by the actual complaint, now published, it was written by more than one person. One, if not both, were lawyers. No doubt one was the biased Democrat Clinton operative, Andrew Bakaj. How do I arrive at that assumption? The grammar. Lawyers are notoriously poor writers. A glaring grammar mistake in most legal documents is their lack of understanding about the correct punctuation for enumerations. Part of the complaint has been done correctly; the other part not. So, two writers?
It is appalling that people are able to listen in to the president's calls, then pass them on to coup mongers up to no good. This has to be stopped. The president must be able to speak to foreign leaders privately. The investigation here should be against these nefarious political operatives. Perhaps a first step is to require "whistleblowers"/complainants to SIGN their complaints, with the concomitant guaranty of anonymity and privacy while the complaint is being assessed for validity and intent. If, on the other hand, the complaint is assessed to be nefarious, then that complainant should be named and charged, in my view. These complainants are cowards. They did not sign their complaint. There were no signatures, no redactions to maintain the anonymity.

So the world works to negate terrorism!
Meanwhile Biden is interested in his wider war. News out of Israel is that Blinken is tying the hands of Israel, demanding humanitarian aid for Gaza, which means aid for the terrorists, Hamas.
Don't recall any history detailing calls for humanitarian aid for German civilians during WW2.
How about calls for Humanitarian aid for Ukraine. On the contrary, inept Western leaders howl for death to the last Ukrainian or death for those US/UK/EU/NATO proxies as long as it takes.
We live in a mad world. Mark Levin posted an interesting video detailing the string of organizations in the US, spreading support for Hamas, while lying and hiding their actual nefarious activities.
Of course, Putin's call for peace negotiations is an expedient political position to line up with BRICS+ against the US and its threat of a wider war against members of BRICS+.
Yet we can be certain that, if Hamas had invaded Russia, committing the atrocities it has committed in Israel, Putin/Russia would not have hesitated for one second to retaliate strongly and in full measure against Hamas. There are precedents for that thinking: Chechnya and Syria, albeit, apparently in Syria, Russia did incorporate its tactic of humanitarian corridors.

Why has Trudeau done what he has done? He's a student and follower of Klaus Schwab. He's working for Klaus Schwab, not Canada. His insecure, nasty, double-down, virtue-signalling, puerile personality and total inability to lead simply add layers to the odious situation.
The following may explain Canadians blindly supporting Trudeau:
I have spoken to many Canadians about Trump (and been demonized for it). I have discovered, without exception, they irrationally hate Trump b/c they listen to/watch the fake US and Canadian media. CNN is at the top of their watch lists. They have absolutely no idea about Trump's political platform or his successes. When I ask them what Trump has done to justify their hatred, they fire back epithets they have heard on CNN (many are not even watching the Canadian fake news, just the US fake news).
They have also never heard of the UN Migrant Compact. So they have no idea how Trudeau's signing on to that dictate, has already started profoundly changing Canada into something completely different from the Canada they have known and built.
Many of these Canadians would be offended, if you pointed out that they are supporting Identity Marxism. They believe themselves to be classical liberals. They have no idea that the Liberal Party's platform is miles from classical liberalism. They have no idea what they are actually supporting.
Then, there are the fringe, woke Trudeau supporters who know exactly what they are supporting.

@UCmzhKbvxSQyfBxCaViIf8_Q Can't imagine why you are lecturing me. I am right there with you on single motherhood. Do not agree with it at all. I should say I don't agree with the choice. It's always bad for the children. If such a choice relies on government, it is very bad for everyone else as well as the children. Some women, though, are forced into that situation. Having said that, for a very long time now I have been writing about the need for life skills and planning courses, starting in grade school and all the way through high school, as a requirement for graduation. Such a curriculum would include teaching how to plan one's life with correlated goals for career, family, finances, health, passions and leisure activities. For example, for a woman to have a goal to climb a corporate ladder and have four children without the wherewithal to have 24/7 care for them would not be a correlated and feasible goal. The goal of such life-planning education would be to eliminate reliance on government. It is obvious that we cannot rely on government, corporations or these days, even families for security or a safe place to land when life throws its curves.
As for the history of the women's movement, well I wasn't around for the suffragettes, but I was most certainly around for the momentum of the movement in the 1970s. I don't need to look up or cherry pick the history. I was there. It wasn't all about equality at all. It was about equal opportunity and the right of choice. It was about getting rid of the pink ghetto in offices. The pink ghetto was about women serving coffee, washing the dishes, picking up dry cleaning, no rights to higher positions (or places in graduate schools), being addressed by their first names, while the men were addressed by Mr. so and so, etc. -- not about the value of different jobs. Today there are no glass ceilings for women. Women are in high positions in every industry you can possibly imagine. Women create their own glass ceilings. Having said that, the notion of lessening standards for women in, say, engineering or other faculties (that just happened in Australia) is abhorrent and dangerous.
I am vehemently against the right to equal outcomes, affirmative action, continued high legal immigration, illegal immigration (The elephant in the room of globalism and open borders is that all the migration is in one direction -- to the West. Guess what happens when a country fills itself up with the world's dispossessed or more people than it can handle. Globalism is a euphemism for replacing the people of Western countries at their expense.) I am also vehemently against identity politics, the notion of race (We are all one race, the human race), and safe places for unfortunate students whose professors have turned them into babies. Jobs, university positions and any immigration (that should be based on two-way equal exchanges) should be strictly about meritocracy.
There, you have some of my principles of life.

2/ Ukraine will be much better off adopting Putin's demands and creating friendly trade relations with Russia.
Neutral Ukraine
Demilitarized Ukraine.
Denazified Ukraine. Azov and other ultra right nazi groups banished.
US/NATO aggression out. No NATO in Ukraine.
Recognition of Donetsk and Luhansk as independent states (as was granted to them under the Minsk Agreement, signed by Ukraine, then ignored by corrupt officials). After having been attacked and shelled for eight years by Ukraine, they will never agree to be part of Ukraine.
Recognition of Crimea as Russian (always has been Russian. Khrushchev, for some strange reason, under the USSR, transferred administration of Crimea to Ukraine SSR. The Russian population was not swapped out for a Ukrainian population. In 2014 Crimea voted overwhelmingly to be under Russian Administration.
No Ukraine EU membership. As a result of the West's calls for more war, destruction and death, Russia is now demanding that Ukraine not be part of the EU. Its reasoning is that Ukraine's shadowy dealings with NATO when it is a non-NATO country, is a clear indication that it would use an EU membership to continue its illegal activities with NATO. In any event, Ukraine is bankrupt, so it is highly unlikely that it could become an EU member any time soon.

1/ It is really important in life to be realistic and practical. Become informed about his war. You will not become informed, watching the mainstream news. Not only did Russia have very good reason to invade -- to stop eight-years of Ukrainian Azov genocide against Donbass Russians - over 18,000 Russian men, women and children killed to date, but it is also winning this war. There will be no victory for Ukraine or these guys. If you really do care about Ukraine, start exposing the corrupt, nazified oligarchs who are running Ukraine, including corrupt US oligarchs. Start persuading these men to stop being kill-fodder for Biden's evil war against Russia, using Ukrainian men as his proxy fighters, without a second thought about their wellbeing and lives.
The US has been in Ukraine causing trouble for 8 years, since its bloody Maidan Coup, 3 years of which Zelensky has been president (proxy president - he is handled by Ilhor Kolomoisky, who bled Ukraine dry, including stealing all the depositors money from his own bank). They have done nothing for Ukraine, a deeply corrupt and bankrupt country, relying on foreign aid, much of it siphoned out into US bank accounts.

Trump was prone to criticizing journalists unfairly and harshly?!! Are you kidding us?!! The rude, corrupt reporters (they are not journalists) who shouted and screamed at Trump with false accusations, epithets and lies deserved much, much more than harsh criticism. In view of their appalling, puerile and extremely dangerous behavior, the fair, harsh criticism was not enough. Those reporters are a disgrace, shed any thread of professional journalism they may have once practised. Additionally for four years, they either collaborated with seditious plotters, spreading a fabricated story about Trump/Russia collusion, or they were so incredibly inept, they actually believed it, having not taken the time to do any of the research and checking expected from real professional journalists.

The GrayZone is one of the most important news sources in America today. I don't agree with all their views. On Ukraine I am behind them one hundred percent. Kamala Harris and Joe Biden are war criminals. End that vile manufactured, US hegemonic war against Russia, pretending it is about Ukraine NOW. All that war has to do with Ukraine is to use Ukrainian men to die as proxy fodder, litter the dead on proxy Ukrainian battle fields, and colonize Ukraine to enrich the MIC, FIRE (financial, Insurance, real estate sectors to rebuild the damage) and OGAM (plunder the oil and gas and mining sectors), as they attempt to tear Russia apart to plunder its resources and colonize the remnants). A huge inept, corrupt, dangerous, luckily failing US, paleo, cold-war, regime-change misadventure!

@inci[idsigninsetup -- Astounding how illiterate liberals are today! Result of massively dumbed-down education courtesy of left liberals, I suppose; however, I will try to determine what point you are trying to make.
Trump is guilty? Guilty of what? Provide your evidence or hold your tongue. Accusing someone of being guilty without evidence is heinous, depraved and the actions of the uninformed and uneducated.
On the other hand, Clinton is guilty. Based on actual evidence obtained through the justice system, courts and congressional investigations, it has been proven that it is she who "colluded" with the Russians, purchasing a phoney Russian dossier, for an astounding $12 million, with false information about Trump, which dossier was illegally used to obtain a warrant to spy on a political opponent in an attempt to influence an election -- and she has the gall to project her illegal activities on to Trump.
Shame on anyone who is so devoid of ethics that they ignore this glaring fact -- that this investigation into Russian "collusion" has led us squarely to Hillary Clinton. Shame on any Republican or Democrat who sits back and watches the treasonous and corrupt activities of the Obama leftovers in the DOJ, FBI, CIA and tries to ignore them or deny them. How do they explain their lack of ethics and honor to their children?

@egay86292 Ruled by committee?!! Would be an absolute disaster. I am beginning to believe there should be no political parties. Just candidates voted for their merits, background, education, successes and most importantly results.
There is no other way to explain continuing support for the Democrat Party that is completely corrupt and inept, kowtowing to the Military Industrial Complex and attempting to stop opposing candidates with fraudulent indictments, other than voters' loyalty to a party, despite its deep corruption.
Many of the supporters who get their news from corrupt MSM, do not even understand that the Democrat Party ceased being a classical liberal party a long time ago. Worse, when we listen to young, woke voters being questioned, we know they don't have a clue about world or domestic politics, or general knowledge of world and domestic issues. In other words, ignorant voters turning democracy into a crapshoot.

The need for legislation to protect the public from arbitrary actions against them from the likes of Twitter is obvious. What do you think would happen if the large ISPs and phone companies, decreed one day, that it will cut all services for more than half of their customers for whatever reason?
People, unfamiliar with corporate and securities markets are constantly whining that Twitter et al are "private" companies with "private" platforms, so they can do whatever they want. Firstly, of course, Twitter is a public company in the private sector that performs what has become a massive public function. Accordingly, just as public companies in the securities, phone, pharmaceutical, healthcare, and other industries are highly regulated to protect shareholders and the public, so should Twitter be so regulated.

@T BZ - I watched it on the internet. The guy giving the advice is a former criminal defence lawyer and now a professor of law. He was followed by another speaker, an ex-cop, who also gave the audience the same advice, with examples of how people get into trouble if they talk, even if they are innocent.
Now, I would give you the link, if I didn't highly suspect that your statement is intended to deride both Fox and me.
If you want to know what is going on in the world, you will never find out on the mainstream news. If the messages behind world activity don't suit their political agenda, the mainstream media outlets do not report them, or they negate them, or they twist the spin to suit their politics. The loss of professional journalism is one of the worst crises we face today, threatening the heart of democracy.
By the way, I haven't watched TV in over twelve years! Got rid of my cable and TV. I highly recommend that you do the same, if you have not already done so. It forces one to really find out the truth about what is going on. There are hundreds of highly reputable commentators, outlets and professional journalists in the alternative news (that the mainstream news insists on demeaning with the epithets, "extreme right," "alt right," etc.). There are also some wacky news sites (liberal and conservative) on the internet; however, intelligent people can quickly sort them out, just as they have figured out that the mainstream news no longer practices journalism.

From what I have read and heard, this was very much a situation of "let's get these Wall Street one-percent shorters. I believe that both sides are wrong. I get that the little retail guy has been sitting home, unemployed for a year, but fooling around to manipulate a market is not the way to pay the rent. Investing on the basis or real value is a different story. The point being missed here is the importance of market integrity, the cornerstone for fair and efficient markets. A battle between unethical, powerful short-sellers and opportunist, amateur retail long-buyers should not be played out in the markets -- makes a mockery of investing. As we are all affected, directly or indirectly, by the markets, in the end we all suffer from these extraneous lose/lose games. As for stopping further purchases of the stocks involved, that is totally understandable and legal, if the unemployed retail guys are trading on margin (after all CoVid has drained their bank accounts). Also, seems to me that trading halts are not unique to this situation, especially when great volatility is involved. If the liquidity of a firm is involved, better to stop some purchases, versus sinking the ship, along with all the passengers.

Frankly, wondering about the skin color of an expected child of a mixed-race couple is hardly racist. We wonder about the physical traits of expected children all the time: eyes, hair color and texture, nose shape, etc., and, yes, color of skin. It would be truly amazing if this woke couple didn't, themselves, wonder about Archie's traits, including his skin color.

Wheat, as we eat it, is pretty well always highly processed. Highly processed carbohydrates that turn into SUGAR in our bodies. Sugar, the cause of coronary heart disease, diabetes, overweight, obesity, etc. So yes, whatever you say, it is better to stay away from bread, other baked goods, pasta, cereals, etc. I challenge these Fifth Estate hosts to try eliminating wheat for a month. They'll notice a difference in how they feel -- so much better -- in just a few days. They will be amazed at how quickly their stomach bulges start to diminish.

The crazy thing about this insular dishonest tech executive, moaning, as an immigrant, about finding the election of Donald Trump deeply offensive is that Donald Trump's election was inspiration for immigrants. Donald Trump's election resulted in an immigrant from a dangerous, totalitarian, communist regime becoming the First Lady of America. If that is not inspiration (let alone his other beneficial initiatives for immigrants and low-income areas). Moving forward to today, I say to him, I find it deeply offensive that Democrats have cheated to win the 2020 election. Given the possibility that, because the fraud is too deep and varied to unravel, Biden may be successful with his stolen win, I find it deeply offensive, unethical and immoral that Biden arranged a celebration to claim the presidency before the election has been legally called. That is the kind of thing that happens in corrupt African countries and totalitarian regimes. Shame on all those who support, justify, mitigate or ignore this evil.

Hillary Clinton turning on one of her own. Interesting. I understood she met with Elizabeth Warren the other day! A deal? (Clinton president/Pocahontas VP -- can't imagine HRC volunteering for second place.) A support quid pro quo agreement to entrench Clinton's policies? Interestingly, in an ethical decent society each of these women would have been precluded from running for any public office.
A Democrat fired Hillary Clinton from the Watergate Commission for, in his words, being "an unethical, dishonest lawyer and a liar." What had she done? She stole exculpatory evidence and hid it in her house, so the other side would not see it. She should have been disbarred, and particularly as she was practicing law, prohibited from running for public office.
Elizabeth Warren got into university/ law school (not sure if it was university and law school or just law school) on the basis of a fraud (identity politics). Everything she has accomplished and all the money she has made since then is courtesy of that fraud/affirmative action. Why does a country allow such a person to run for any public office? She gave a hollow apology without consequences. An apology without consequences is no apology at all.) I believe she should return all earnings spilling out of her fraud to Native Americans, relinquish her degrees, and remove from her resume, all accomplishments spilling out of the fraud.
Neither should have been allowed to run for public office, especially in a presidential race. Neither deserve any respect whatsoever from decent, ethical people.

Trump chewed this puerile, look-at-me, Page 3 screecher up and spat her out. She deserved it. Totally inept for her position, a disgrace to women, a disgrace to professional journalism, a disgrace to America, even a disgrace to down-market, trailer-park CNN! LOL!
Has anyone ever watched Putin's town halls? The women are impeccably and professionally dressed, extremely polite, informed and knowledgeable and respectful, even when asking challenging questions. This inept entertainment host, Collins, shamed America in front of the world.

LOL! Down. Down. Gone. Demi-salute. Perhaps I shouldn't, but I can't help laughing, and I get great satisfaction from it. Karma for Biden after his filthy foreign dealings; foreign influence peddling, using a sick son as a bagman; regime-change war mongering; plotting how to frame an innocent man knowing he was innocent; blaming the truck driver of the truck into which his first wife drove with mortal consequences, while he, Biden, was having an affair with Jill; taking credit for Trump's successes and blaming his failures on Trump. Not to forget, a nasty thief, squatting in the White House. Not someone who should ever be in a leadership position, dementia or no dementia. Karma, Joe. Karma.

How about during this US proxy war? By 2021, over 14,000 Russian men, women and children had been killed by US-supported Ukrainian genocide - still continuing today - a major reason for Russia's SMO, after the US/West/Ukraine refused Putin's relentless calls for diplomacy to end the genocide.
How about the hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians KIA and thousands more injured, proxy fodder for the US manufactured war against Russia that, under Putin, never - not once - threatened or invaded any Western country.
US/West/Ukraine leaders are ripe for war crimes picking, and Biden and his team, including, certain Norwegians, should also be charged and tried for terrorism!

@djsandmannable I suggest you read up about John McCain. Firstly, he was an individually known war hero because he was captured. That's how most people know his name. That's what he used as an asset in his political career. I imagine if your "quote" is accurate, that is what President Trump was suggesting. How many names of U.S. pilots who flew in Vietnam do you know? Even those who were captured? My guess is none, other than John McCain. For President Trump to be complimentary about John McCain would be a massive exercise in cowardice, as John McCain was actively involved in the attempted coup against him. That is no longer hearsay or chatter. It has been proven by excellent investigative journalists, subpoenaed documents, and under-oath-testimony. John McCain was also caught live on video, urging Ukrainian thugs to attack Russia. I don't have at my fingertips any quote of what President Trump said about John McCain's war experience, so I can't comment on the veracity of your "quote." Almost always, negative quotes of Donald Trump have been out of context or entirely made up. I would be disappointed if he praised John McCain, after John McCain's traitorous actions. I also know that there is controversy among John McCain's fellow prisoners about his time in prison. If a war hero goes on to commit crimes or behave unacceptably, I don't believe excusing that behavior because he was a prisoner of war is valid.

Looks as if this BetterUp company slid into woke culture and climate change, instead of doing what it is supposed to do, whatever that is - likely focusing on created mental health issues, so it's laying off staff. Laying off staff BEFORE managing to get an IPO together. That means bye, bye. It also points to the pure naivete, ignorance, and lack of experience and expertise of these two grifters to be able to assess credibility, risk and reward. As grifters they squeeze some upfront fees (to the detriment of the employees and future of their ventures), without recognizing that the failure of their ventures, despite their upfront plunder, will further sink their reputations.

This whole traitorous plot against President Trump started because the deep home and foreign swamp dwellers in the arena of international, Ukraine and Russian politics were scared to death that Trump was going to change the focus and corrupt Democrat/Obama policies in Ukraine. The plot was expanded in an attempt to ensure Hillary Clinton a win. I am just reading Lee Smith's book, "The Plot Against the President," about Devin Nunes's role in uncovering the sedition. He documents the corrupt journalists and their false reporting, along with what they wrote, the dates they wrote it, and how their work correlated in content and timing to the protodossiers, Steele dossier and ultimately Obama dossier, the latter being Obama's approval in a meeting, in which he carefully attempted to distance himself from his advice to continue the "assessment" with the words, "by the book." The scenario of events and Democrat-invented, spider's web of spies and traitorous evil passed along to the media is sickening beyond words.

Putin did win 80%+ of the vote. It was a well covered and well vetted election, including free voting for all participating parties (unlike the US today). He's very popular. Why would he not be, when he's protecting Russia from countries, such as the UK, waging war on Russia and Russians to tear Russia apart to invade it, grab its resources, and embed US paleo power in Eurasia?
Let's remember Boris Johnson's rush to Kiev to order Zelensky to tear up the peace MOU signed by Ukraine in early peace talks in Turkey. Let's remember Liz Truss's threats, before Russia's SMO, that Britain would target anyone in the Kremlin who had anything to do with the continuation of Russia - her subsequent, disastrous, abominable, threatening, ignorant meeting with Lavrov in Moscow, one of the triggers for the activation of Russia's SMO.
When war criminals in the US, UK, EU, relentlessly screech and howl that they plan to tear Russia apart, "to the last Ukrainian, as long as it takes," it couldn't get more evil. Of course Putin is protecting Russia and willing to respond in kind against these dangerous, offensive Western leaders and their unwilling Ukrainian conscripts, needlessly dying as proxy fodder for evil US/UK/EU/West ambitions.

@Red_Pill_Matrix It's possible. Takes time. Original source material (emails, subpoenaed documents, hearings, sworn testimony, research, released. documentation, etc.) and information (listening to Trump directly, not what corrupt journalists would like people to believe about him, following his activities and results). Seeking out the few journalists who still practice professional journalism, tons of research (what actually happened in Ukraine under the corrupt Obama Administration), etc. All takes tons of time. Alternative, reliable, factual You Tube channels. As you say, the only source of information for those who don't go to the same lengths is the corrupt, lying media. That's why it is so dangerous.

@Zack Sherman - How old are you Zack? Never learned about acceptable behavior and ethics in college? Are you even in college? Where were your parents when you were growing up?
Clinton's "consensual" sexual encounter had nothing to do with his job as a president? Where is your common sense? Ever worked? Know anything about workplace requirements and expectations? If a CEO were caught having an office sexual liaison with a young intern, he would be escorted out of the building, with no opportunity for explanations. FIRED.
In ethical companies and society, an office sexual liaison between a CEO and a young employee or intern is NEVER considered consensual, because of the immense power gap and huge age difference. It is always considered molestation.
You should read what you say before you post it. Essentially you have said it should have been just fine for Clinton to abuse his power and have a sexual relationship with a young intern and lie about it, but if Kavanaugh is accused (without a shred of evidence) he is guilty and must be sent down for defending himself against such a vile accusation. NO PROOF WHATSOEVER THAT HE DID ANYTHING UNTOWARD.
"He has already perjured himself"?!! Really? Only cowards and fools who don't know the facts resort to such nasty, slanderous innuendos. Provide your proof that he has perjured himself, or apologize to him, his family, and every decent person, who understands that in a free democracy, accusations without evidence can never go forward to trial and should never be allowed to destroy lives.
Now let's talk about likely perjury. Dr. Ford said she had NEVER helped anyone in anyway over a polygraph. Turns out that is a lie (with evidence). She said she couldn't remember if she had turned over her therapist's notes to reporters, or if she had provided her own claim about their contents. Don't remember is a classic tactic to sideline perjury. Dr. Ford's complete testimony is looking very much like perjury, except that through her own techniques or those of therapists, her mind is totally fogged up. She thinks she remembers these things, albeit every witness she has named has categorically refuted her claims, even her supposedly best friend at the time.
Brett Kavanaugh is a partisan activist?!! Provide your evidence or hunker down ready for slander charges to be brought against you. Lawyers work on all sides of an issue with objectivity. He is known for following the law, rather than interpreting it to create new law. That is why he is such a good supreme court pick for all people. Are you too under-educated to understand that.
If there is a partisan activist here it is YOU. Condemning a man without an ounce of evidence. Is that what you want in society? Imagine if your co-workers or fellow students accused you of a crime without any evidence, and the executives or professors sided with them, and publicly shamed and dismissed you, even though you had done nothing wrong and they had no evidence. Anyone can understand that is not what decent society is all about. Societies that allow people to be destroyed on the basis of accusations -- evidence not required -- are hell holes (think Nazi Germany). How ironic that Democrats are yelling that Trump and his supporter are NAZIs -- any epithet without reason or intelligence will do -- yet the behavior of Democrats over Brett Kavanaugh and the attempted coup against President Trump are right out of Goebbels' play book. We weep for your children (now or in the future), if you don't develop some ethics and common sense.

@JoAnne Middaugh - Brett Kavanaugh perjured himself several times during the hearings?!! Really? Who told you that? CNN? Some other news arm of the Democrats? Those who don't bother with research, facts or common sense, using reason, intelligence and adult discourse, all too often resort to nasty innuendos. PROVE THAT BRETT KAVANAUGH PERJURED HIMSELF AND APROVIDE THAT PROOF (NOT HEARSAY) or apologize to him, his family, and decent people in America. Or stay tuned for potential slander charges against you. You don't have to support his appointment to the Supreme Court, but resorting to baseless lies is low-down and odious.
Heaven knows why you would not support him. His overriding quality as a judge has been to follow the law, not create the law. That should be the most important qualification for any judge on any court for anyone -- Democrat, Republican, Independent, or apolitical.

What the hell do you mean, "a Kavanaugh unplugged." You are supposed to be a journalist, astute in language and vocabulary, with the education to use the right words. Kavanaugh was most certainly not '"UNPLUGGED." He vigorously and passionately defended his innocence, and assertively contemned the unethical, depraved, extreme partisan attacks against him and his family that were devoid of common sense, ethics, legality and morality. Those of us who believe in the sacrosanct foundations of the presumption of innocence unless proven guilty, the requirement for evidence to determine guilt, and the common sense to pick out a politically motivated smear again, expected nothing short of that vigorous defence and condemnation of the evil from Justice Kavanaugh.

So Bret Weinstein tells us that this day of absence had been going on for years, yet he did not object, until it became a day of presence, and whites were banned. I get his point that there is a difference between voluntarily staying away and being ordered to stay away; however, frankly, the day of absence is galling and odious in itself. The practice, in my view, greatly contributed to the extreme racism of the people "of color" (a dreadful term -- we are all "of color"). The fact that the faculty was involved in this odious practice just doubles down on the horror. In other words, colleges such as this are deeply involved in the frightful racial hostility we are witnessing today. College faculties should have policies that we are all one "race," the only race on this planet, the human race, and put their students on notice that any other approach will be treated with zero tolerance; that it is merit that counts, not "race" or skin color.
I would like to see all white students and faculty leave the college until it sorts itself out. Let the racists find another group to keep away. Meanwhile, I understand enrolment at this college is down dramatically and the college has lost $6 million in funding. A great lesson about ethics and consequences for the students and faculty.

In government, despite all the games, there must be integrity, honesty, and ethics, all an integral part of freedom and democracy. Society cannot be ethically whole until those traits are restored.
No one has faced appropriate consequences for the traitorous, seditious plots against President Trump. They are still given a voice and still push hatred and lies.
Intelligent people become corrupt and dishonest, supporting a political party long after it has become wrotten to the core.
Perhaps political parties should be abolished. Replaced by individuals voted into power for their ethics, decency, intelligence, education, experience, record, and accomplishments, to rise successfully or fall on their own swords.

Unaffordable housing in Canada is only partially a supply/demand issue. It is mostly a pricing issue, with the entry of private equity and large funds, REITs into the real estate development market. The rental market is growing faster than the mortgage market.
Pricing Issues.
Continuous annual rent increases just because landlords can, without scrutiny. Rents never go down with inflation. Always up and up and up.
Above Guideline Increases (AGIs), a corrupt practice to pass "capital costs" on to tenants. An unethical practice in itself, also abused to create dodgy "capital costs," often actually maintenance costs, to increase Return on Investment (ROI) to high-net-worth passive investors. Straight from the pockets of struggling renters into high-net-worth pockets.
Financial institutions purchase apartment buildings, either invent expansions for higher and/or uncapped rent increases; double, triple and quadruple rents after rudimentary refurbishments after a tenant has left.
Using AGIs to override government percentage caps on increases; dramatically increasing rents when one set of tenants leaves, after rudimentary refurbishments to "justify" the increases; continuous annual increases, all dramatically increase total rents. Annual percentage increases may be regulated and stay the same; however, the actual amounts of the increases get larger and larger as total rents increase.
Supply / Demand Issues
Come on in to Canada. We are a country of immigrants. More and more and more, especially non-white. We are WEFers and subscribe to diminishing white Canadians. As for illegal migrants, well we won't deport you. We will pay your way. Move into a hotel or expensive apartment building. The government or NGOs will pay, while Canadians struggle to pay.

No wonder the thief, Joe Biden, had the Logan Act on the tip of his tongue. His son was meandering around the world, talking to foreign governments without authority, selling access to, and benefits from, Joe Biden. Joe Biden, of course, was careful to be a shadowy partner, collecting his share of the windfalls, directly or indirectly, then had the unmitigated, depraved nerve on Jan 5, 2017, to plot, along with Obama, Comey, Brennan, Rice, Yates and Strzok, how to frame General Flynn, knowing he was innocent. Now, this pathetic fossil of an immoral man is preparing to move into the White House Basement. The Biden Regime's first regime change with a new name: the USSR (United States Socialist Republic).

Changing voting habits. Yes. That will help. People continue to support their favorite political parties out of tradition, after the parties have become corrupt. They continue to align with the parties, because they are often uninformed - unaware of changed platforms. The Democrat Party in the US is a great example. Many support it, unaware that it is no longer a classical liberal party. Perhaps it's time to end political parties. Simply vote for individuals based on their principles, common sense, ethics, smarts, experience and results. Unfortunately, there is another element at play. Changed voting will be like pushing a rope. The millions of migrants and immigrants - those with cultures that clash with British culture - will vote against you.
Ed Husain in his amazingly frank book, "The Islamist," mentioned the dilemma of Muslim immigrants who do not support British traditions or culture: terrorism and violence for change? Or, change through the electoral system at the voting booths. This book should be required reading for all British politicians - in fact all politicians today.
People are afraid to view migration and immigration with detachment. Afraid to be bullied if they call out the obvious. They justify mass migration and immigration with their hearts, not understanding that filling a country to overflowing breaking point - especially with clashing cultures - will destroy the country socially and economically. The new country will become the countries from which the newcomers fled.

Had a good war?!!! Meanwhile, exactly, good for Nigel! Shame on this host, leading the way to categorizing people by gender and race, rather than as individuals deserving of their positions or not. This equity business has predictably taken a very dangerous, unacceptable turn to dehumanization and mediocrity! Shameful!
Back to good war?!! There is NEVER a good war, especially when the war has been manufactured for spurious reasons that have never been credibly explained. Putin is "evil," they say in an attempt to justify the horrifying spectacle of appalling, inept Western leaders (with a chilling UK sub-leader, Liz Truss, in the forefront) signing on to support, fund, train and weaponize nazified militias of the most corrupt, bankrupt country in Europe, Ukraine, as they continue and accelerate genocide against Donbass Russians (over 14,000 Russian men, women and children killed to date w/ that number vastly increasing over the last few days as Zelensky increases Ukraine's genocide against civilians, courtesy of weapons from the West.
Putin has consistently, for eight years, through the Minsk Accords, called for diplomacy to end the Ukrainian Nazi Azov genocide against Donbass civilians. The West refused diplomacy. Its ally, Ukraine, ignored the Minsk Agreement that guaranteed peace and independent status for Donetsk and Luhansk. The shelling continued, urged on and supported by the US/NATO/collective West. Biden threw out evil epithets against Putin and Russia, who have done nothing untoward to the US/UK/EU/West. Putin again called for diplomacy. The US/West refused. To cut a long story short, Russia created a SMO to unilaterally, with its allies, end the genocide and US/NATO aggression. After WW2, who in a million years, would have imagined we would be witnessing the West support genocide, corruption, Nazi militias and outright, unprovoked military aggression in a country where they should have no business. Why? It is Biden and his Western lapdogs who are evil -- all in the name we conclude, without official explanation, of MIC, OGAM and FIRE profits. Bodies for Profits. Pure evil!
Boris Johnson and Liz Truss are not fit for leadership. The quicker they are banished, the better for the UK, the world, and Russian and Ukrainian men who will escape death fighting a Western manufactured war against Russia, using Ukrainian men as fodder to die in battle remotely orchestrated by the likes of fossilized Joe Biden, impervious Boris Johnson and wicked Liz Truss.

The cost of energy skyrockets, with huge impact on the food industry which is highly dependent on energy, as Britain continues its war and sanctions against Russia. This evil, needless, manufactured, US war against Russia, supported by the West, including Britain, is a major cause of Britain's dire economic situation right now.
Worse, this war is not only backfiring to cause enormous economic damage in the West, while Russia's economy is doing fine, it has resulted in a tragic humanitarian disaster, the death of over 500,000 Ukrainian men being used as proxy fodder to die for evil US/West ambitions against Russia. WAKE UP BRITAIN, say no to Britain's destructive involvement in this US war!

Make sense? Maybe, maybe not. Are we just talking about projection involving pay hikes? Or are we talking about projection involving working for an organization currently involved in evil policies? Both are far from a black and white issues.
Albert Einstein once remarked on all the evil in the world (much of the evil in the West today, alarmingly similar to the evil of his time), but he warned that more evil are those who do nothing about it. (A motivator for my online political involvement.) There is something to be said for walking away from an organization that is involved in evil, especially at the higher levels. I get it, that it takes courage. I get it, that many at the top and bottom have been lied to and misled about the West's manufactured war against Russia. I get it, that walking away means walking away from a salary. I get it, that the majority are just cogs in the wheel.
Still today there is debate about the acquiescence and silence of Germans in 1930s and 1940's Germany, particularly against Germans who worked in the Hitler government. Hitler's secretary spent five months in prison after WW2. The Nuremberg Trials created precedents for no mercy for higher ups following orders. Imagine if Germans and not been so acquiescent and silent towards their government's activities, the history of Europe might have been quite different - no holocaust.
But this is a focus on pay hikes. If all the EU members got hefty pay hikes at this time, I think that is definitely an issue deserving of assertive debate. Should I be more empathetic towards EU Commission workers? Yes for some; no for others. Having said that, of course, in high inflationary times, any workers will gladly accept pay increases without delving into macro-economic consequences.
I so admire your ethics to correct mistakes. On this one, don't be so hard on yourself. It's a complex issue, particularly as it goes against the EU's own executive advice to other organizations about pay hikes during inflationary times, and adds to the inflationary upward spiral. Not to forget that a key component of failing governments is the size of their bureaucracies and generally too-high pay for non-revenue generating work.
These are valid issues of general debate, versus hurting individual feelings of EU government workers.

For some mysterious reason, you are not seeing the elephant in the room - maybe because your market feeders don't want you to see it, or tell about it. Europe - thanks to Ursula von der Leyen, a German, herself, - thought it was a great idea to impose evil sanctions against Russia, pretending that Russia had done some evil to Europe, when in actual fact, Russia that emerged from the collapsed USSR had never - not once - threatened, invaded or attacked the US or any of the Western countries now waging war against it, pretending it is to protect Ukraine. Ursula von der Leyen, actually publicly boasted that the US and EU conspired together BEFORE Russia's SMO, to create harsh, never-before-tried sanctions against Russia.
You mentioned that Germany has been cut off from the long-term, reliable, reasonably priced energy from Russia, but didn't mention that the EU's (including Germany) sanctions cut off the Russian gas supplies that had driven Germany's success up to that time. Worse, the US planned and orchestrated the explosion of Nord Stream, tightening the screws against any renewed Russian/EU energy trade, using non-governmental agencies to create plausible deniability. Unbelievable that the US would do this to an ally, Germany, but it did; and Scholz still cowers before the US. The US reasoned that if it were able to deindustrialize Germany, which is exactly what is happening, it could sell it more expensive gas, and swoop in to take over its faltering manufacturers and corporations. The sanctions against Russia caused energy prices in the West to skyrocket, resulting in too costly factories and massive inflation, particularly for food, an industry that is hugely reliant on energy.

@punkinhoot Major issue today, especially in Canada, is uninformed voters. Results in dysfunctional democracy. Those who vote in ignorance, kick back and hand over responsibility, to be ruled over by inept, inappropriate governments. Are you Canadian?
I have spoken to so many Canadians who voted for Trudeau who were unaware of the following:
They had never heard of the UN Migrant Compact that Trudeau endorsed (unlike other Western leaders). It is a UN dictate that Western countries must accept all migrants without question and support them. One of Trudeau's actions that is destroying Canada.
They did not know why Trudeau disappeared under shadows of the night from a school where he taught. He had been caught in an inappropriate s. relationship with a minor student, whom he later had sign a very lucrative NDA. That should have precluded him from ever holding public office, let alone as PM. Voters were more interested in the availability of chain migration than ethics of a leader.
They did not know that Chrystia Freeland created PERMANENT legislation allowing the government to freeze bank accounts of people who disagreed with, or demonstrated, against government actions. They thought the freeze legislation was just for the period of Trudeau's emergency measures, later determined illegal.
They whined against and defamed Trump in complete ignorance, as they bemoaned job issues and low wages in Canada, unaware that Trump is against the export and import of cheap labor that destroys domestic jobs and keep wages down, as has happened in Canada under Trudeau.
Unbelievably many Canadians who voted for Trudeau/Freeland had never heard of the globalist WEF, yet Klaus Schwab has boasted that he has all of Trudeau's cabinet in his pocket. Chrystia Freeland is a member of its Board of Trustees. Those WEF woke and globalist policies are destroying Canada.
I could go on and on, suffice it to say, with just these few examples, Canadians who voted for Trudeau in ignorance, now wonder how on earth Canada got so messed up.

Way more than Americans are suffering from this relic. Thousands are dying in Ukraine because of his fabricated war with Russia, using Ukraine as a proxy, after he and his team plundered Ukraine and mounted the bloody Maidan Coup. To date over 14,000 Russian men, women and children have been killed in Donbass, as a result of that coup, at the hands of the Ukrainian Azov Militia and nazified army, courtesy of Biden, Obama and most of all Nuland. Meanwhile, America is imploding from within, as the misfits of the world swarm across its border. And the world faces massive inflation, courtesy of his ineptness and war with Russia. His partners in the EU likely have just months left before those countries start falling apart as a result of their own madness and affiliation with the bullies Biden and Nuland.

Shame, DOUBLE SHAME on Nadine Dorries and Jacob Rees-Mogg for supporting this appalling, chilling, dangerous woman, Liz Truss, Boris Johnson's war-mongering pet. This woman was a trigger for Russia's SMO. BEFORE Russia's Special Military Operation, Liz Truss announced that Britain would target every single person in the Kremlin involved in the continuation of Russia. A reckless, vitriolic declaration of war. Why? What has Russia, under Putin, ever done to Britain? Absolutely nothing. So why is she and Johnson gung-ho on tearing this country apart and destroying the Russian people with sanctions? The only answers intelligent people can come up with are to generate profits for the Military Industrial Complex, tear Russia apart to easily plunder its much needed resources, grab Ukraine's resources, not least lithium, and create profits and jobs for British companies to reconstruct Ukraine after they damage it. Or god help us, did these under-educated war mongers miss the collapse of the USSR and the rise of a new prosperous Russia under Putin.

George Arndt - Don't watch Fox News. Do watch Lou Dobbs, on of the few remaining real journalists. Did watch Hannity's excellent timeline of the attempted coup. You are right, the U.S.has not left Syria. I never said any such thing. It has left an essential contingent there. As the U.S. is oil self-sufficient and hasn't tapped into oil from Venezuela for years, your argument falls flat. President Trump does care about the people of Venezuela, as well as the return to prosperity of that country. When countries oppose the U.S. in trade, war or currency fixing, then they need a jolt. Thank goodness Trump, with more business acumen than any other U.S. president in our lifetime, has the guts to do that. He's a brilliant negotiator, including getting tough to bring about results. Taking steps to eliminate the U.S. dollar as the reserve currency? That is complete hogwash. Keep your head in the sand about Iran funding of ISIS.
I recommend that you read about the history of Saudi Arabia, not a black and white history. A real balancing act, with the Royal Family (like them or hate them) a balancing act against the Wahhabis.
I totally agree with you about Assad never having gassed anyone. I don't agree with Trump on much of his statements and actions in Syria, albeit, he stepped up the actions against ISIS. Nevertheless Putin deserves the lion's share of praise for pushing back ISIS in Syria.
Hezbollah and and Hamas are world-wide terrorist organizations, with focus on Israel.
President Trump's actions are totally correlated with his campaign platform. Campaign platforms are goals not promises. Presidents have congress with which to deal and cannot accomplish all their goals. The key is that he does not let up on them.
Be happy. You are totally wrong about Trump. Of course, we cannot possibly be correlated one-hundred percent with our favorite politicians. The world is far too complicated. But learn to understand the significant issues. (For example gun laws are not. Gun ownership is entrenched in the constitution and would require a majority vote from a majority of states, so it is not going to change. In other words, a moot point in elections.) Learn to pick out what counts. Run Trump into the ground and you will be seeing Democrats taking power. What do they support right now: socialism, huge government spending, open borders, exploitive outsourcing and insourcing of cheap labor to fatten their corporate donors' pockets, sanctuary cities with all their crime, drugs and filth, massive immigration and open borders that will surely destroy a country economically and socially, no consequences for a vile attempted coup (denying, mitigating or supporting it, so no justice or consequences), unethical behavior, calls to violence, elimination of free speech, discrimination against white people, especially white men, affirmative action and quotas, resulting in a dumbed-down country, continuing massive trade deficits....etc. So think very carefully and pick your debates. Wish Trump away and prepared for what comes your way.

@robertp7209 PBS - A publicly funded media outlet, a senior counsel of which was caught on video suggesting that conservatives and their children should be interned in re-education camps! At least he was fired. The similarities between tactics used to bring Hitler to power and the tactics being used or suggested by Democrats today should scare the living daylights out of everyone. They include, but are not limited to, the following: fake news; propaganda and lies masquerading as news; censorship and silencing of opponents; rioting, burning, breaking into businesses, and looting, with encouragement or no government action to stop it; cancelling jobs and businesses of opponents; attacking opponents; indicting opponents on false charges; burning and banning of books; enemies lists; spying on innocent people; phoney court cases on fabricated charges (two phoney impeachments without any evidence of crimes, as well as Mueller initiated cases today); elimination of free speech at universities; re-education camps; indoctrination of students; co-operation among the media, big business and the fascist government; vile racism (Critical Race Theory today); fraudulent elections. Shame on anyone who supports these Democrat tactics.
Without professional, factual journalism, there can be no functional democracy.

Not Again Read Witch Hunt, one of the most impeccably sourced books I have ever read about the Democrat corruption.
During her failed presidential campaign, Hillary Clinton fabricated a story about Russia/Trump collusion (all made up lies) to detract from her email scandal. How do we know? John Brennan, head of the CIA at the time, briefed Obama about it. That briefing has been released to the public.
Hillary Clinton went on to pay for a false dossier, the Steele Dossier, to back up her lies and to be used in plots to demean Trump and spy on innocent people to get to him. How do we know? Her laundered funds were traced from the DNC, through her law firm, Perkins Coie, to her smear agents, Fusion GPS, who were working with Steele to produce the dossier.
How do we know the Steele Dossier was completely false? The prime source for the dossier, Igor Danchenko, a suspected Russian spy, working for the far-left, think-tank, the Brookings Institute, told us so in sworn testimony under FBI questioning and through documents produced in a European court case.
As part of the plot against the president, FBI agents arranged to spy on innocent individuals in an attempt to find crimes that would incriminate President Trump. They used the false dossier to defraud the FISA court to obtain illegal warrants to spy on them. How do we know? From the individuals whom they targeted and spied on, from the FBI lawyer who was charged and pled guilty to altering information in an email to obtain the warrants, fr Michael Horowitz, the inspector general who investigated of the matter internally, among countless other documented information.
Included in the plots to get President Trump, was a plot to bring down his National Security Advisor, General Flynn, an innocent man. On Jan. 5, 2017, a meeting was held at the White House attended by Obama, Biden and his team. During that meeting, they plotted how to frame an innocent man, General Flynn, knowing he was innocent. How do we know? From their own notes that have subsequently been released to the public, and from Susan Rice's CHA note to file. Biden was particularly proactive during that meeting, suggesting they use the Logan Act to get General Flynn. The Logan Act is an outdated act that was enacted in the early days of the US to prevent non-authorized people dealing with foreign governments. As Biden suggested this, his son, who had no authority to deal with foreign governments, was travelling around the world, negotiating illegal play-for-play payments to the Biden family for potential access to Biden as VP and potential future president. General Flynn, as incoming National Security Adviser, not only had authority, but also had disclosed his foreign meetings.
@NotAgain, Just a very few examples, noting the proof, which is on the internet for you to find, of the shameful corruption of the Democrats. If you have any pride in your ethics and decency, you will take time to research all that happened under the Democrats, and turn your back on such corruption. Countries that return the culprits of such odious sedition to power will end up very badly. The signs of that catastrophic end are already with us under the Biden Regime,

Elephant in the room? Major cause of inflation is the US manufactured, offensive, hegemonic war and sanctions against Russia, pretending to an uninformed public that it is all about Ukraine.
The sanctions backfired to cause sky-high Western energy prices. The food industry has been particularly hard hit, as it is so reliant on energy through the piece.
Massive expansion, spending, and borrowing of government to fund and supply Ukraine, the associated war administration costs, and laundered funding of the MIC, causing inflation.
The war has nothing to do with Ukraine, other than as a proxy killing field and supplier of unwilling Ukrainian conscripts to be KIA as proxy fodder for evil US ambitions.

There is no way the Markles can EVER work for the RF again. MM is a far-left, political activist and has dragged H into being one as well. She has been very public about her activism. She publicly and vitriolically trashed the leader of Britain's greatest ally, President Trump, not with reason, intelligence, knowledge, examples or substantiation, but with a string of nasty epithets she had likely heard on CNN. I was shocked that, after she had done that, the RF allowed her to work for the Head of State of Britain, at that time the Queen.
The RF could welcome them back to the family, but never again as public royals, after she increased her damage by trashing the RF, her family, the British people (lecturing them about unproven climate change and insinuating they are racists), American people (trashing their constitution and interfering in political issues about which they are completely uninformed), Canadian people (whining about Canadians not wanting to pay for their security). In fact, I believe the RF would be very unwise to invite her back to the family. She is untrustworthy, a trouble maker. She has burned her bridges.

Burisma was enough. Hunter Biden's no-show board seat for $83,333 per month when Joe Biden was VP. Joe Biden's bribery about which he boasted on video, to withhold the US $billion loan guarantee from Ukraine, if Shokin, the Ukrainian prosecutor investigating Burisma, was not fired. He was fired. Hunter Biden's salary for his no-show job was reduced to $41,500 per month, after Trump won, and Joe Biden was no longer VP. Hunter Biden was given the following explanation, "We are very much interested in working closely together, and the remuneration is still the highest in the company and higher than the standard director’s monthly fees. I am sure you will find it both fair and reasonable.”

CoVid PLUS Biden's evil, manufactured war against Russia, using Ukraine as proxy fodder, resulted in the Russia-China Alliance and the loss of US world dominance. The alliance was a direct result of Biden's threats and goading against Russia. As the US steals foreign assets without a second thought about trust or ethics, and as it spits out is sanctions against Russia, its dominance declines even further, with the loss of the USPetroDollar and the $US as the world's reserve currency added to the mix.
But that's not all. Biden's open-border policy is on track to cause the US to disappear entirely. The US, without any doubt, will become an entirely different country -- similar to the economically and socially troubled South American countries we have watched for decades. The only action that will halt this progression is if Republicans, when they gain power, have the guts to deport every single one of Biden's illegal migrants and their children. They won't have the guts to do that. So goodbye America.

Frankly, if the left fascism, hatred, racism, socialism, goebbelsianism (my word), globalism, identity politics, stretched genderism, violence, equality of outcomes, extreme feminism, affirmative action, political correctness, fake news, safe places, etc. are not stopped in their tracks soon, we will all be doomed, with likely some nasty civil wars along the way.

Liz Truss is one of the most ignorant, chilling, and dangerous UK politicians ever -- actually, not one of the most, but the most, in my view. She is a disgrace, particularly to women. One has to wonder how much affirmative action was involved in her appointment as foreign secretary. Its as if she is fluffing her filthy feathers to justify her position, while falling for a mistake some women make in the workplace: becoming personally vicious and nasty. I agree, she needs to be removed. Send Boris Johnson a tweet to that effect. I have and will again today. Her abominable behavior towards Sergey Lavrov was, I believe, a trigger for Putin's recognition of Donetsk and Luhansk and formation of his Special Military Operation. After Lavrov was faced with this evil woman, they knew there would be no diplomacy from the West to stop the Ukrainian shelling of Donbass, and that Russia had to go it alone. Before she left for Moscow, she pretty well declared war against Russia to remove it from the map - and Boris Johnson, unbelievably, sent her to Moscow to "negotiate." He needs to be removed too. Sergey Lavrov was disgusted by her threats, pomposity and complete ignorance of the issues.

@RSkrub Change your thinking. You don't come from nothing. No one comes from nothing. Such a negative label will weigh you down. Look at it as how far you have come, or are going, out of difficult circumstances.
Trump is popular because, although he comes from privilege - he created his own privilege - he has the backs of the ordinary people. He was wealthy before he entered politics. He didn't skim off politics to steal wealth. He didn't even take a salary as president. The Democrats have the backs of the large, colluding, often corrupt organizations. The roles of the parties have been not just reserved but become Trump Republicans for the survival of America as a great country versus Biden Democrats oozing into a hybrid Marxist-Totalitarian Fascist Party that is destroying America.
It is extremely difficult right now, as inflation, resulting from high energy prices, is crippling family finances and forcing people to choose between food costs (the food industry is highly dependent on energy) and rental/home costs. How did this happen? cowardly Biden sanctions against Russia that boomeranged to destroy Western economies through sky-high energy prices, and pulling magic Biden-bucks out of thin air by borrowing money to wage war, support corrupt Ukraine, and feed, house, and care for illegal migrants who should not be in the US or any other Western country.

Unfortunately, twitter has become the largest news outlet in the world. Other sites, such as Parler, as yet, simply don't have the reach. When twitter went live, people scoffed at individuals reporting their activities during the day in 140 characters. No one at the time would have guessed that so many people of importance would be on twitter reporting news. The great advantage of twitter? On-the-ground, unedited, raw footage; direct sources; fake news obliterated the minute it is published, because it is a bottom-up news site. Thanks to twitter, we know what President Trump and others actually say, not what the fake news want us to believe they say. Twitter was particularly relevant during the riots: raw, unedited footage, no political opinions dressed up as news, no hear say, no twisted fake news, no ignored news. Is there a ton of crap on twitter? Yes. The ignorance, libel, bullying, epithets, nasty innuendos highlights our fallen societies, diminished education, ignorant electorates and dysfunctional democracy. Twitter's interference is the downside: banning, shadow banning, pushing trends, censorship, etc. I was banned for calling out the women on "The View"! Very stupidly, twitter is shooting itself in the foot, because one day its interference that actually goes beyond mere publishing will not be tolerated. Twitter, itself, will come to an end: Banned, Censored.

@davidshmavid5 The purpose of vaccines has always been to prevent a person from becoming infected. When it became apparent these vaccines were not working to prevent infection, the story changed to the vaccines just lessening the severity of CoVid-19. So fully vaccinated can become infected and contagious, just the same as unvaccinated can become infected and contagious. So the notion of discrimination against the unvaccinated makes no sense and is positively odious. Risk of a more severe case lies with an unvaccinated person, with apparently no risk to a vaccinated person
First we were told by the scientists that masks were not necessary or functional against disease. Then we were told they were mandatory. Next expert research discovered they do not work, as the fabric spaces for all masks, including the best masks, are larger than the virus, so, in essence, masks are useless. But the mask mandates are revving up, as variants appeared, and after these scientific experts issued advisories to wear not one but two masks.
The mortality rate of this virus is 2% of the world population, and in almost every case involves patients with other healthcare issues or chronic disease. For most, it is flu-like or asymptomatic, yet Fauci and now deeply questionable experts have dictated shutdowns with politicians falling over themselves to ride the lemming track of harsh and intrusive lockdowns that have played havoc on the world economy, jobs, businesses and people's lives. Yes, indeed, why not! Shut down the economy for a minute 2% mortality risk for people with other health issues. The "scientific experts" and politicians, of course, have continued to collect their salaries and benefits throughout.
And, by the way, what a perfect opportunity for the draconian totalitarian fascism that is enveloping the world. Dictate health passports and the start of shared and collective databases (now confirmed) to control populations and scare them into being compliant and quiet.
UTTER MADNESS!

Tricky question, I think. All part of how the internet has disrupted the media industry, particularly the advertising end of it. Before the internet, I could buy a newspaper, then do what I want with it: pass it on to my neighbors, use an article for a seminar, school or university, donate it to a library for hundreds of people to read, all without any money exchange. I didn't have to pay a licensing fee for others to read my newspaper. The internet also disrupted local newspapers' main source of revenue, local advertisers. Now, if I attach a News Corp article to, a comment in a Google platform, Google has to pay. (Albeit, I am sure it will be an annual, not individual, licensing fee.). News Corp also gets advertisers which it will share with Google that it otherwise had lost. Soon, all the large media platforms are going to be on board, as well as all the big-tech platforms. A complicated mess, for which, for sure, the consumers will end up paying. Google or Facebook news doesn't affect me. I avoid both because of their political bias. What about Twitter, surely the largest site that involves use of articles from other media outlets all the time?

I expect that, if the employees didn't leave, they actually stayed at the "office" for 16 hours, not exactly working. That is human nature for most, except for driven successful types. Give employees all the benefits, such as lounge areas, games, etc., that is what they will do.
It's like working from home. Very few people actually put in a full, productive day's work, when working from home. Unbelievingly many workers - mostly government workers - are still working from home. The lack of productivity, unprofessionalism that seeps in, dysfunction, and destruction of the economy (retail, transport, real estate, etc.) is why it is imperative that employees return to work, 9 to 5, five days a week.

Russia's brutal invasion of Ukraine?!! Russia consistently called for diplomacy to end US/NATO aggression against Russia and the Ukrainian genocide against Donbass Russians that started in 2014, after the US bloody Maidan Coup spilled into civil war. Peace and independent status for Donetsk & Luhansk were negotiated with the Minsk Agreement, but corrupt Ukrainian officials, including Zelensky when he became president, ignored the Minsk Agreement. The genocide against the Donbass continued.
Biden arrived in the WH and started threatening Putin. Advising the world that Putin was about to invade Ukraine. In response Putin and Lavrov continued to call for negotiations. People in the West were unaware that Biden was behind an increase in Ukraine's military presence at the border of the Donbass, with the intention of invading the Donbass and goading Russia into war.
Foolish Boris Johnson sent his chilling foreign secretary, Liz Truss, to negotiate with Lavrov, a highly respected diplomat. Before she went to Moscow, she shrieked to the world, during a UK TV interview, that Britain would target anyone in the Kremlin who had anything to do with the continuation of the Russian Regime. A direct declaration of war. Her interview with Lavrov, played out for the world on video, was a disaster, her behavior, abominable. Lavrov was disgusted by her threats and ignorance. Within two days, Putin recognized Donetsk and Luhansk as independent states (not states within Ukraine with independent status, as per the Minsk Agreement). They asked for Russia's help to end the genocide against them. By the start of 2021, over 14,000 Russian men, women & children had been killed in that genocide.
Putin formed the SMO to end the genocide. Evil? Millions died in WW2 to defeat genocide, nazism, and tyranny in Germany, the very same horrors that Putin and his allies are now fighting against Ukraine.
Ukrainian atrocities against the Russians and civilians during these hostilities have been numerous and horrifying. The West's push for more and more weapons for Ukraine to fight to the last Ukrainian, sending Ukrainian men as proxy fodder to die for its evil war against Russia is beyond chilling.
Why a war against Russia? Putin is "evil," scream the inept Western leaders and media. Nothing could be more evil than the West's destroying Ukraine in a manufactured war against Russia. The West's threats and sanctions against Russia started BEFORE Russia's SMO. Biden and his EU, UK, West cohorts have given no acceptable reason for this war. But we have figured out why. MIC profits - sale of new weapons to EU countries as they send their weapons to Ukraine! FIRE profits (Financial, Insurance and Real Estate sectors) - contracts and profits for Western companies to rebuild Ukraine after they have destroyed it! Russian resources, more easily plundered,if the West can colonize torn-apart Russian lands. Pure unmitigated evil.
Thankfully, the West is losing.

Albert Einstein once remarked on all the evil in the world, but warned that more evil are those who stand by and do nothing to stop it. How many people today call Biden, President, and do nothing, even if it is just protesting on line, to end his evil charade? Many of the evils during Einstein's time are very similar to the evils of the Democrat Party today: corruption, censorship, cancelling political opponents, taking jobs and opportunities from those with different political opinions, false stories about those with whom the totalitarians disagree, attacking political opponents, re-education camps, political indoctrination of students, propaganda posing as news, loss of freedom of speech in universities, discrimination against certain ethnic and religious groups (today whites and Christians), terrorism, burning, smashing and looting, cooperation between big business and corrupt government, on and on....

Most shameful scandal in US history, which started with an FBI plot against a duly elected president, President Trump, continued with slander, libel and epithets against that president, crescendoed into two manufactured, attempted impeachments and ended in this demented, withered, old man shuffling into the White House, a thief in the night, squatting there, in someone else's house, with two main servants, his power-hungry, enabling wife, and a VP chosen for her gender and color, taking on the nuance of a shadowing dog; his own dogs nipping at him and his wife too, it seems, judging by the ugly band-aid, fashion statement for meeting the Queen.

These fool "leaders" in the EU and UK can push back all they want, but the day the US ends financial and war support for Ukraine will be the day this evil US/West war ends. Without the US, EU war efforts are powerless. Meanwhile, Biden's back-office boys can do everything they want to whitewash Biden's corruption, war crimes, open borders, sexual deviancy, plots against Trump and Republicans, the people are not stupid. The facts cannot be squeezed back into the tube. Biden is finished! He's destroyed America, and he's responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths in Russia and Ukraine. He, along with the UK, EU, war mongers, should be tried as war criminals!

@Dubinski2382 Naked put options are legal (in other words betting on the price of the stock going down without owning the stock to cover), and might have played a role in this situation, for all we know. Undoubtedly covered put options played a role. Meanwhile, I believe there is a place for shorting in highly liquid stocks, as long as the short sellers don't engage in manipulating the price by publicly talking the stock down. By the way, the opposite occurs all the time. Do you think that is unethical and should be illegal? Very hard to monitor. Insiders or investors receive stock at pennies a share; then pump up the stock and sell. For example, acquire, say, 1,0000,000 shares at $0.50/share, then pump the share price to, say just $5.00 per share. That's a profit of $4, 500,000. This is the way many promoters (even lawyers who demand shares for their work) get very rich in the crossover from the venture to the listed market.
Quite frankly, I believe both sides of the equation in this instance were despicable. Professional, experienced short sellers fighting a battle with amateur, opportunist long buyers (by the way, my guess is that many if not most were not amateur traders), using a public square. The point most people are missing, because they laud the one percenters getting nicked, is the importance of integrity of the markets for a fair, functional market. As the markets, directly or indirectly, affect all of us, this David and Goliath battle was appalling on both sides.

@eugenecrocker7062 You contradict yourself a little: against exec. stock options because they get away with paying less tax, but against government taxation. I am not up-to-date on taxation issues for stock options, so can't comment, but here are my thoughts about executive stock options and taxation generally: EXECUTIVE STOCK STOP OPTIONS. Initiated as incentive for executives to do well. Problem is stock options are based on the price of the stock, not on actual underlying value. Also, share price becomes their focus, expanded by quarterly financial reporting with the need to meet or surpass external analysts' expectations. I think this practice needs to end. Encourages dodgy finance and sometimes outright corruption. TAXES. I am against taxation as it has become. Institutional government theft. I advocate a very low flat-rate taxation system with no loopholes, except, perhaps breaks for retirees who have worked in the country for a threshold number of years. The rich would still pay very much more. 5% of say, $5,000,000 is a whole lot more than 5% of, say, $100,000. Progressive taxation is wicked, especially when a huge percentage of people in the US don't pay any taxes at all; they just receive government handouts. Quickest way to reduce government is to turn down the continuous, dripping golden tax tap.

@Psycho Killer - OMG how ignorant. "Democratic socialism"? What exactly does that mean. Of course, it's Bernie Sanders' euphemism for socialism so people will be less frightened at the prospect and vote for him. I might remind you that during his last campaign, one of the prime ministers from one of the nordic countries (give you some homework to figure out which one) was so disgusted by Sanders' attempting to link "democratic socialism" to their countries, that he found it necessary to put out a statement to remind Bernie Sanders and his followers that the nordic countries are not socialist countries. They have some generous socialist programs, but guess what? They are heavily funded by capitalist taxes. All Western countries today are mixed economies. You can attach any kind of adjective you like on to socialism to make it sound better, but bottom line, it is still socialism (paid for by other people). Make no mistake about it, communism is socialism's child. The ignorance of many people today is astounding and very dangerous. Do you even know what USSR stands for? United SOCIALIST Soviet Republics. The difference between these two TOTALITARIAN forms of government is so hair-breadth small that, yes, they do indeed conflate into one. Under both systems, there is no private property or resources -- all are shared equally at the direction of the government. Under communism, it's not about equal sharing but about state ownership. Socialism always reverts to communism. There is not one example of socialism in history that did not turn into a totalitarian, fascist state. There is not one example of socialism that did not end up collapsing the relevant country -- democracy or dictatorship. By the way, they all end up as dictatorships. Any democratic voting is a rigged show. A progressive society (meaning innovation, entrepreneurship, meritocracy, medical technology, scientific advancement, etc.) and socialism is an oxymoron.
Conservatives these days are labelled "far right." What actually does "far right" mean? Today's liberals, progressives and globalists throw out that epithet, along with Nazis and Fascists, to demean conservatives. I remind you that all advances in society today have been propagated under conservative principles and free enterprise. Do you know what NAZI stands for? National SOCIALIST German Workers' Party. What is Fascism? It is a political movement under which the government interferes and encroaches on business. Today that would fit the left end of the political spectrum.

Thank you so much for this. Conservative here. I agree Cuomo was an appalling, inept governor. For his slander against Trump, his stuffing CoVid patients in long-term care homes, his fudging the number of CoVid deaths and general mismanagement of New York, it is good he's left office. As far as the sexual allegations against him, excerpts from Letitia James's report indicate that the accusations are highly questionable and in some cases, ridiculous. Women coming out of the woodwork at opportune times to ruin politicians with spurious claims of sexual harassment from years before is highly distasteful. It dirties politics and democracy. It shames all political parties involved. It needs to stop! Solution: statute of limitations for reporting sexual misconduct. One month. That is plenty of time to report a valid claim. If it is not reported and verified within that time, then it is a no-go for any future claims. Shame on the women who engage in such attempts to ruin men. Shame on the hypocritical, cowardly, Me-too Movement!
Lastly, about Letitia James. If New Yorkers actually do care about their state, they should ask themselves how on earth someone so inappropriate, unethical, partisan, and unprofessional as Letitia James ever became AG, and make necessary changes to improve the education and ethics of voters, so that no future AG can wield such incredible damage as she has done in her short time in office.

Inept British. Rightly, Boris Johnson was despicable to ignore the vile rules and police state he had imposed on the country, with zero evidence for the veracity of the rules. But he should have been dragged from office for more serious depravity: supporting Zelensky to continue allowing the US (and allies) to use his country and men as proxies for an evil US war against Russia for MIC profits, plunder and US hegemony. This war has now claimed the lives of over 300,000 unwilling Ukrainian conscripts, thousands of Russian forces, as well as civilians. Friday wine partes against the rules, versus the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians, as well as the dire economic situation and inflation in Britain, with people struggling to pay for food, caused by egregious sanctions and war against Russia. Russia is suffering far less, the world outside the West not signing on to this evil and cooperating in support and trade. It is known that Boris Johnson stopped peace negotiations in Turkey that had potential to succeed. It is rumored that he wanted to create a British Military Industrial Complex in Ukraine - cheaper labor to prop up the diminished British military, no doubt with paybacks planned for himself.

All those responsible for this, particularly, Joe Biden, Victoria Nuland, Antony Blinken, Lindsey Graham, Ursula von der Leyen, Jens Stoltenberg, Boris Johnson, Liz Truss (big time - a trigger), Justin Trudeau and Chrystia Freeland, are war criminals. What the West has done is pure unadulterated evil.

Companies should stay out of politics. Perhaps it is time to legislate them to stay out of politics. Nevertheless, it inevitably ends badly for those who do sign up for political propaganda (usually via HR departments filled w/ woke graduates who are unable to find revenue-generating jobs) - Disney, Netflix, Victoria's Secret, Bank of Montreal come to mind off the cuff.
Many watch corporate commercials these days and believe that the relevant companies have moved to Africa. Will the woke African HR departments demand that black people be removed from their commercials and replaced by white people for the sake of "diversity, equity, inclusion" in Africa?
As soon as I see CEOs with pronouns attached to their names, I question their ability as leaders. Sufficiently weak to be bullied into the bs, or so insecure about who they are, they have to attach pronouns to their names to remind themselves. A warning sign to avoid these badly managed, lemming companies. Stay away as workers or consumers.

I believe Tara Reade's case is credible. She has real evidence. Reported the incident at the time. Credible corroborating witnesses who were there at the time. Larry King Show. Having said that, most of the sexual harassment allegations we have witnessed against various politicians have been suspect at a maximum, totally without credible evidence at a minimum. It is a sordid, shameful way to attempt to destroy politicians (and other men). Dirties, and makes a mockery of, democracy. Ruins lives, families, and filthies the process, a nasty gotcha game on both the Republican and Democrat side. It needs to stop! How? Statute of limitations for reporting sexual harassment and assault. One month! That is plenty of time to report such heinous crimes. If sexual misconduct is not reported within that time and credibly verified, then it should be a no-go, with no legal standing for later claims.
Meanwhile, women scream and yell for equal rights and opportunities - equality with the men. Time for them to get in the ring and fight with the men on the issues, without using spurious sexual claims, often from decades before, in place of the issues, elevating friendly banter and pats to sexual harrasment.
As I mentioned, I believe Tara Reade's case is entirely credible, unlike the claims against Kavanaugh, Trump, and, yes, even Cuomo. Yet, as her claim is ridiculed and buried, we still remember Bill Clinton's sexual deviance and his wife's enabling actions, all swept under the rug by a two-faced, corrupt Democrat Party. We easily slough off Jack Kennedy's inappropriate liaisons as behavior of the times, but swoop down like vultures to tear off Cuomo's flesh for his behavior of the times. Cuomo's inept management as governor and actions around CoVid are more than sufficient to send him packing.

Compliments on a woman's appearance should be absolutely OK! For them not to be OK is a mark of the mad and twisted path "political correctness" has taken us down. UTTER MADNESS. Just the kind of madness to which a fake news outlet such as MSNBC subscribes. Now seeing his announcement, I felt a pang of sorrow for him, as he struggled to maintain his dignity. On the other hand, when I originally heard the news, thinking he had voluntarily resigned, I felt good. Just a few days before when he wailed and whined about the state of the Democrat Party and likened Sanders' win to the Nazis' invasion of France, I tweeted that for more than two years he had fallen in line with MSNBC's fake news. So intent on staying on MSNBC's lemming path, he had missed the story of the century, an attempted Democrat Coup against the president, instead viciously attacking and defaming the victim of the attempted coup, thereby as a once-professional journalist, missing the real story and missing what was actually happening to the Democrat Party. The more these corrupt media outlets, devoid of professional journalism, and their producers, writers, editors, hosts, reporters, etc. (who, devoid of ethics, agree to carry their false messages) are called out and sued for their false news, incompetence and cowardice, the more likely we will turn the corner back to professional journalism and a chance to develop functional democracy.

Very interesting and important interview. Thank you.
Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim bin Jaber Al Thani, a real diplomat, empathetic, pragmatic and peace loving. Rare wisdom in one country not dealing with a neighbor the way a far-off country across a large ocean would like that country to deal with the neighbor.
Sanctions are a cowardly tactic of war for paper, desk generals who avoid the frontline, The US and West now dealing with destructive inflation, as a result of US/West sanctions against Russia.
The Ukraine War is not a war between Ukraine and Russia. It has been a US/NATO/West hegemonic war against Russia, using Ukraine as a proxy, mixed in with Ukraine's Civl War that spilled out of the US-initiated Maidan Coup. Most bizarre that the US would be insisting on its war funds to be returned through a deal to siphon off 50% of its proxy, Ukraine's post-war mineral/resource revenues that Ukraine will need to rebuild the country.. The US willingly paid those $billions to Ukraine to do the US's lethal dirty work. A change of presidents does not alter that reality. They are sunk costs and should not be on the peace agenda.
Palestinian hatred against Jews is long standing. Gaza was an independent territory that invaded Israel on Oct. 07/23. Israel militarized the West Bank in response to suicide bombers against Israel. The West Bank Palestinians were outraged with expanded Jewish settlements and Israeli military overseers. The two-state solution sounds great, but it has never worked. A very tough situation, with long-standing animosity and hatreds. Re-vamped education systems will be essential to bring peace.
Who cares about net zero!

Worst violence since apartheid?! News organizations need to put more focus on the nature of their scripts. We never saw anything like this during apartheid. That it no way condones apartheid. It had its own abominations. But the facts are that whole areas of malls, shops, grocery stores, pharmacies, car showrooms, warehouses, distribution centres, storage facilities, delivery trucks, gas stations, animal centres (saw chickens, goats and pigs looted as well) etc. were never plundered, destroyed and burned during apartheid.

@redlightmax -- Interesting how our writing reveals so much about us, just as your comment tells us so much about you. You are under-educated ("according to who?" "Michael Cohen says different").
Among skills that separate the educated from the not-so-educated are logical extrapolation and reading comprehension. Michael Cohen never said any such thing, but an opposing lawyer did.
So, you are inclined to believe the guy in court before a judge? Have you somehow missed the latest and worst, treasonous and political scandal in U.S. history, that included the obtaining of a warrant to spy on a political opposition candidate by lying to a judge in the FISA court? Or perhaps it was the judge, himself, that was corrupt and part of the plot? Evidence has come to light strongly suggesting the latter.
Hillary Clinton set up a private server, over which classified and confidential material was sent (felony). She lied about that. She lied to Congress about her server, emails and Benghazi (felonies). She tampered with and destroyed subpoenaed evidence (felony). Now, that was not in court, but the same legal requirement to tell the truth applies. And while we discuss her, did you know that a democrat fired her from one of her first stints as a lawyer for, in his words, being "an unethical, dishonest lawyer and a liar." But, hey, she's a lawyer. I guess you would believe her. What had she done? In addition to unprofessional obfuscation, during discoveries, when it came time to exchange information with opposing lawyers, she stole pertinent information and hid it in her house, so the opposing lawyers would not see it.
The guy in court was a lawyer, so I suggest to you that you might want to hold off on your inclination to believe the person before a judge. I also suggest that you make damn sure the article disclosing this incident is accurate. It came from the New York Times, an outfit that long ago lost any semblance of professional journalism. An outfit that was caught red-handed colluding with Hillary Clinton/DNC/Democrats. An outfit that resembles more closely Goebbelian propaganda than journalistic integrity. An outfit that has been caught red-handed more than once for false reporting. Now why would it be that a once liberal, but professional media organization wold stoop so low? I suggest the Mexican majority owner has a whole lot to do with that organization's decline into swamp reporting.
A consideration: a hypothetical situation. Prosecutors are after you. People in your workplace who don't like you have been making up lies about you, focusing on negatives instead of ever pointing out the amazing work you have done improving efficiency. They are jealous, you are a new employee, an outsider who has rattled their complacency. They made up lies about your having broken the law. So now the prosecutors are after you. Thankfully you can let out your frustrations with a great lawyer you have managed to hire. You can do this comfortably, because sacrosanct in Western democracies is the principle of lawyer-client privilege. In other words strict confidentiality between you and your lawyer. But, hey, the prosecutors hounding you have no ethics. They don't care about legal principles. At the dead of night, they break into your lawyer's office, grab your confidential records and tell the world, further destroying your reputation and chances of a fair hearing.
Under the circumstances of a democrat plot to destroy President Trump (with loads of evidence, not hearsay), I tend to believe Hannity. And quite frankly, even if he had ever hired and paid the same lawyer as President Trump has used, I cannot for the life of me figure out why that should be an issue.

@Tuco Remirez -- "War criminal government." What war? The only war the U.S. is involved in now is to decimate one of the most evil terrorist factions in our lifetime, ISIS and its related evil extreme factions. You can, of course, choose to ignore this evil and label the government as war mongering, or you can stand for decency and acknowledge its fight against evil.
Having said that, in one way you are right. Decent people (Republicans and hopefully decent Democrats too) watch in horror, as the chilling democrat, Maxine Waters, a representative of the government, screams for violence against conservatives and screeches slanderous, untrue epithets at President Trump, calling him a criminal -- all given prominent cable time by the likes of depraved media outlets, such as CNN and MSNBC.

I am not in shock. It has always been clear to me that a goal of the US in the Middle East was to take Gaza. One option - whether workable or not - has always been to resettle Palestinians; however, Jordan and Egypt are against Palestinians settling in their countries. Once bitten twice shy. The wall between Egypt & Gaza tells that story. It cannot be denied that appeasing Palestinian terrorism and Hamas has never worked. The two state solution is not working. Alex, how about you suggesting a workable option.
During negotiation of the Abraham Accords, a solution for Gaza was discussed at length in meetings with world financiers, bankers, real estate developers, insurers, leaders, etc. They were all willing to develop essential infrastructure and systems for Gaza but would not commit to it, because of the lack of property rights and the rule of law in Gaza.
Trump's solution is for a strategic presence in my view and development profits; however, in view of the devastation in Gaza now, and the need for an alliance with Israel, maybe the time is right for a US presence to rebuild Gaza. It would also have the potential to lessen Islamic extremism in the area.

@Priscilla Hall -- Wake up! Learn to determine what is false or twisted news, or opinions dressed up as news. It is very important that you do that, because the loss of professional journalism is one of the top crises we face today.
CNN is fake news, just as ABC, NBC and CBS are fake news. I'll give you a hint as to how to start determining that something is wrong. When the media relentlessly attacks and criticizes a president, or spins his successes into failures, intelligent people know there is something very wrong. FOX is different. It is indeed a conservative leaning media outlet, but it reports the news as it is.
President Trump has done absolutely nothing to deserve the ignorant puerile and irrational hatred levied against him. He has, in fact delivered the best economy ever. The fake mainstream news spins that success. After months of diatribes and opinions dressed up as news that his actions would destroy the economy, when the great economy started making them look like real fools, they changed the message that his actions will collapse the great economy. (By the way the economy always goes in cycles --- up and down). Or they spun it that it was Obama's economy, which is rubbish. Obama increased government big time and more than doubled the national debt to over $20 trillion -- a mind-blowing, shocking amount.
President Trump's economy is a direct result of his pro-business platform, tax cuts, elimination of unnecessary regulations that protect no one, cost companies millions of dollars a year, and prevent entrepreneurs bringing their good ideas to fruition, insistence on fair trade deals, discouraging outsourcing that eliminates jobs and pushes wages down, discouraging insourcing that exploits imported cheap foreign labor that also eliminates jobs and also lowers wages. You will hear nothing of this on the fake news.
In a restaurant a while ago, I had to sit watching CNN and this fool, Cooper Anderson, droning on about how dangerous and awful it was that Trump had a meeting with Putin. His body and facial contortions were filled with hate for Trump -- appalling for a host. Anyone who thinks the U.S. should not attempt to get along with Russia needs to tune into the might of Russia, albeit diminished recently. Only fools would advocate being enemies. The mainstream news talks about Russia as if they completely missed the collapse of the USSR.
The fake mainstream news no longer checks stories, even makes stories up -- tons of retractions, twists stories to fit their political narratives. (Astoundingly, not reporting the breadth of the attempted coup, the worst scandal in U.S. political history.) During the presidential campaign CNN was, and still is, the worst. It was shocking to once again see those end of broadcast patterns when they cut off those with whom they did not agree. They painted Hillary Clinton as winning when it was becoming obvious, just by Donald Trump's rallies, alone, that he was winning. They backed Hillary Clinton, who has a long, documented record of corruption and lies. (That in itself is alarming from the media.) and who had just been caught with an independent server over which classified information was sent (felony); lying to Congress about her server, emails and Benghazi (felonies); and tampering with and destroying subpoenaed evidence (felony). These criminal actions have been proved; not hearsay.
I could go on and on. What the mainstream news is doing is so disgraceful, but i have gone on too much. It will be too difficult for liberals with limited reading abilities to read.

@pennelkay - Cohen is pleading guilty to safe himself. Manafort's infractions happened about ten years ago, long before Trump
Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton.
Paid $12.5 million dollars that was laundered through an unethical law firm and paid to Fusion GPS to obtain a false, unverifiable Russian dossier with made up information about Trump via a disgraced, ex MI5 spy. A completely false dossier that was used to illegally obtain FISA warrants to spy on Donald Trump's campaign, and in turn used to initiate a special counsel to investigate Trump/Russian collusion of which absolutely no evidence has been found -- and unbelievably you appear to have no judgement in the weight of an issue.
The attempted coup centred in Obama's FBI, DOJ and CIA is the most shameful political scandal in U.S. history. Shame on anyone who throws all ethics to the wind and turns a blind eye, attempts to mitigate it, or ignore it. If you spend any time on the internet you will notice the absolute disgust towards the behavior of the Democrats and the mainstream media and rightly so. The numbers are always for Trump in droves.
Do yourself a favor and muster up the courage and decency to condemn what has happened and demand that the Democrats also condemn it, clean up their party, and move forward with a clean slate. Consideration for a non-disclosure agreement is nothing unusual. Frankly, in my view, Stormy Daniels is the dishonest one for breaking that agreement. And quite frankly the lawyer's payment to her of $130,00 (there is no evidence that Trump told him to pay her) doesn't even hit the starting line, when it comes to weighing the incredible, positive difference he has made since being elected.
Do I care if President Trump told the lawyer to pay her the money? Not a bit. Do I care about the incredible economy President Trump has delivered? Absolutely. Do I care that President Trump is well on his way to making America great again. Absolutely, with the added bonus that there is now a worldwide movement behind him and to the right, as liberals clamour for socialism, attempt to block free speech, advocate and carry out violence to prevent free speech, stay silent as their politicians throw epithets (versus political debate) Trump's way, and advocate open borders that have pretty well destroyed Europe. Do I care whether Trump had three wives and was unfaithful to them? Absolutely not. I care about loudly protesting against liberal politicians advocating violence, and terrorist organizations, such as Antifa (many paid by Soros) intent on anarchy.

Payoffs to fool the public: $145 million into the Clinton Foundation pay-for-play slush fund in return for the sale of 20% of America's precious uranium deposits to Russia. $12.5 million from Hillary Clinton to pay for a false Russian dossier to influence the election.
There is a huge difference between Trump and Bill Clinton.
Bill Clinton lied to the nation on national TV about his affair with Monica Lewinsky. He also lied to the grand jury and was impeached. He was the boss and authority in the office; she was a young intern. Such are never considered consensual. It is always wrong because of the difference in power. Any CEO who engaged in such an affair would be escorted out the door, no questions asked.
Bill Clinton is a serial, sexual predator. He preyed on women and assaulted them. He had to leave his Rhodes Scholar stint at Oxford early, as he was accused of rape. He lied about Gennifer Flowers -- again, live on TV -- stating he didn't even know her. Put yourself in her shoes. Imagine how you would feel if someone with whom you were involved for twelve years, publicly stated he didn't know you. He had to pay Paula Jones over $800,000. He literally assaulted her in a hotel room. There are loads of other documented credible and proved cases against him.
Hillary Clinton enabled his serial sexual abuses. She actually set up a war room, with her smear agent, Sidney Blumenthal, to strategize how to demean, and in some cases, have investigated, his victims, calling them, "Bimbo Eruptions." and calling his affair with Monica Lewinsky a great right wing conspiracy.
Donald Trump has not gone around assaulting women. Some attempted to accuse him of that, but their stories were debunked within days by witnesses and investigative journalists in the alternative news who actually still practice professional journalism. A lawyer had actually paid some of them to accuse him. Others were represented by Gloria Allred, a long-time major supporter of, and donor to, the Clintons. She should have been disbarred for gross conflicts of interest years ago. I imagine he had affairs - consensual affairs, and he has never gone on TV and lied about them, much as this political hack, Anderson Cooper, would like you to believe he has.

Indeed. Hillary Clinton: $145 billion paid into the Clinton Foundation, as it turns out, nothing about a laundered, personal slush fund, in return for 20% of precious American uranium supplies; $12.5 billion paid by Hillary Clinton and the Clinton owned DNC for a phoney Russian--originated dossier, filled with outright lies about Trump, in order to ensure a win for herself and to bring Trump down if he won.
President Trump may have paid or ordered to be paid, or not directly been involved at all in the payment -- so far, no actual evidence of the facts, other than innuendo and hearsay, as consideration for a legal, non-disclosure agreement, which in turn was broken by the other party. Something that happened before he ran for president: a private matter. If we were a decent society, we would hold the types that break confidentiality agreements for their own gain, accountable too.

Chris Matthews, so intent on goebbelsian propaganda (his remarks aligning Bernie to Hitler, such irony), he missed the journalism scoop of history, a vile, seditious attempted coup against President Trump. Instead of maintaining integrity to professional journalism, with an outright condemnation of the seditious plots, and warning against the extreme Democrat left turn, he focused on lies and joined in the sedition. Now, as he views the resulting Democrat carcass, he realizes it is too late and has resorted to wailing and whining. Chris Matthews, spare us your tears! Clinton supporters sided with criminality (independent server over which classified information was transmitted; lying to congress about her server, emails and Benghazi; tampering with and destroying subpoenaed evidence; funding a false dossier to be used in an attempted coup and goebbelsian propaganda via a corrupt media; and dipping into a pay-for-play slush fund masquerading as a charitable foundation). Those who supported, or continue to support, such criminality are finally experiencing their just deserves.

MG, have you ever lost the plot. Volodymyr Zelensky is the head of the most corrupt country in Europe. He has cancelled all political opposition, with dire consequences for anyone who tries to oppose him. Journalists who actually report the facts of the war on the frontlines are added to his kill list. He recently nationalized important businesses in Ukraine. He threatened to imprison anyone caught giving humanitarian aid in Eastern Ukraine.
Zelensky, himself, is deeply corrupt, once a crude entertainer, famous as a high-heeled trans dancer. He has become a multi-millionaire, owning high-end real estate in the West. He was catapulted to the top by Ihor Kolomoisky, a corrupt Ukrainian oligarch, who bled Ukraine dry, including theft of all the deposits at his own PrivatBank. Zelensky has no power, simply a puppet of Joe Biden - a naughty puppet, often straying from the scripts of the US State Department.
Zelensky is an odious zoom-room beggar demanding weapons and Western tax funds to keep his bankrupt country afloat and enrich deeply corrupt Ukrainian officials. As he sat for Vogue, his goons were out capturing young men at gunpoint to send to the front as proxy fodder to die for Joe Biden's odious, manufactured war against Russia to generate MIC profits and attempt to break up Russia, that under Putin has never done anything untoward to the US, UK, EU, or West. A broken Russia would be easy pickings for US plundering of scarce mineral resources.
This war is not about Russia's SMO, which was formed to end the Ukrainian genocide against Donbass Russians after the US/UKR/West refused Putin's calls for diplomacy to end the genocide (over 14,000 Russian men, women and children killed by the start of 2021) and to end US/NATO aggression, the sordid story of US interference in Ukraine too long for this thread.
Shame on Western journalists and news hosts who, unbelievably, are not informed about the facts of the Ukraine War and the corruption of Zelensky, or who know, but without integrity or ethics, rattle off twisted and false versions of it.
Meghan, Harry and Zelensky receiving a Ripple of Hope award is as twisted and as sick as media outlets that fail to report accurate news.

Slut Dragon It's amazing, Slut Dragon, how our comments tell so much about us. Your comment tells us that you do not keep up with what is actually going on. That you most likely watch the mainstream liberal news that long ago tossed professional journalism out the window to become Democrat PR arms that don't tell it as it is -- in other words goebbelsian reporting.
The MAGA hats are actually made in the U.S. -- ironically, in California.
Do you have any idea why many CEO's do not support President Trump? Strange, don't you think, when his pro-business platform, reduced taxes, and elimination of unnecessary costly regulations created the best pre-SARS-CoV-2-virus economy ever -- for all groups. Business leaders are traditionally Republican supporters; however in the U.S. now, it is the Democrat Party that supports greedy CEO's and one-percent elites. The reason is that President Trump is adamantly against the exploitive outsourcing and insourcing of cheap labor that keeps wages down, eliminate American jobs and decimates manufacturing. The CEO's want to maintain the status quo to fill their bank accounts at the expense of American workers.
President Trump's main focus was in real-estate development and the entertainment industry; however, he did have sideline products produced in China, and I expect Ivanka's fashion/home products were produced in either China or other low-income countries. He talked about extensively during his rallies. Did you not bother to watch them? He pointed out that under the status quo, businesses were forced to outsource/insource cheap labor in order to compete. That's why he did it. Nevertheless, he reiterated that it was not good for the country, pointing out again and again the massive destruction caused by NAFTA. He vowed to bring manufacturing back to America.
From January 2017 to the SARS-CoV-2 shutdown over 480,000 manufacturing jobs were added to the economy. Continued on my next response.

@melvinhunt6976 Now about the recent trade deal with China. Before I get into that, it is obviously untenable to strike a gavel and shout, "No more trade with China." In view of the enormous amount of US/China trade, you can imagine the devastating business and economic consequences of such a proclamation. It's more a matter of correctly managing trade with a communist regime and initiating policies in connection with, not only returning much manufacturing to the U.S., but also manufacturing essential supplies and products at home in the U.S.
The latest US/China trade deal is a Phase One Deal (Two Years)
Beijing has committed to buying $200 billion worth of additional U.S. goods and services over the next two years, including $40 billion to $50 billion of agricultural goods each year.
In addition to farm products, Beijing has committed to buying additional manufactured goods of more than $75 billion, energy products of over $50 billion, and services close to $38 billion over the next two years, a senior administration official told reporters.
These commitments were negotiated towards balancing US/China trade. Continuing trade deficits are extremely detrimental to a country.
In return, Washington has agreed to modify its Section 301 tariff actions. It canceled a 15 percent levy on nearly $160 billion of Chinese goods scheduled for mid-December. It reduced tariffs to 7.5 percent from 15 percent on about $120 billion of Chinese imports.
In addition, the 25 percent tariffs on nearly $250 billion of Chinese goods were kept in place, instead of increasing them to 30 percent, as was scheduled.
Beijing also canceled imposing tariffs on U.S. goods that had been scheduled for Dec. 15 as retaliation.
Trump said that he would use the remaining U.S. tariffs as a bargaining chip for the second phase of the deal.
China has committed to protect intellectual property, stop forced technology transfers, and provide transparency on foreign exchange practices.
Phase One is a great start. We'll see how it turns out, especially after the forced lockdown of the world ecoomy.
China has also promised to open up its financial services markets to U.S. banks and credit companies.

Slut Dragon President Trump will win the election. He's very popular, despite the mainstream liberal media's continuous rant against him. To state that stopping travel from China to the U.S. made no difference at all is devoid of logic. This comment of yours confirms that actually, no, you don't look beyond the mainstream news. If you did, you would know that his health team, particularly, Fauci is highly controversial and, judging by his past comments, not a supporter of Trump. So, his virus briefings are hardly rallies.
I suggest you take some time to understand the constitutional republic of the United States. President Trump doesn't set quarantine policy for the states. He has no jurisdiction on social distancing in the states or municipalities.
Socialism is NEVER a good thing; not in any form, in my view. The UK and its political history are great examples of the utter failure of socialism. Socialism will most certainly not fix essential supply chains.
Most importantly you have exposed yourself as a rather nasty bully. Name calling is bullying. Bullying is always a symptom of ignorance leading to the inability to debate with reason and intelligence. Some advice for you that will leave you in good stead in the workplace or the home. Stick to the issues, without resorting to personally attacking those with whom you disagree.
By the way, I agree that China's ambitions of world influence need to be curbed. I also believe that socialism in the UK needs to be curbed, its welfare programs being one of the top reasons for the influx of unwanted migrants and immigration, a time bomb waiting to explode at the voting booths in the near future. Meanwhile, if U.S. politics interests you, take the time to learn the facts.

Slut Dragon If you think President Trump is a bad president, then you have been watching slanted, biased, liberal mainstream media. Intelligent people know that something is very wrong with media outlets that run criticism and negativity, as well as slander and defamation against someone 24/7. The loss of professional journalism is one of the most serious crises today, so dire the consequences (as in your thinking he is a bad president. He is, in my opinion, along with President Regan, most certainly the best president of our lifetime. So, if you think President Trump is a bad president, then, incredibly, you are not a fan of a great economy (before the virus he delivered the best economy ever for all groups. You believe in open borders and financial handouts to illegal immigrants, courtesy of tax payers. Trump is adamantly against open borders. You might be poor, as you stated, but surely you took some math in school. What do you think happens to a country that year after year is inundated with one-way massive legal and illegal immigration? High school math will lead you to the answer: societal and economic disaster. For immigration to be fair and successful, it must be an equal, two-way exchange to and from countries with economic parity. That is not what is happening. Immigration is a one-way massive movement to the West. It is not the responsibility of the West to take in all the dispossessed of the world at its own expense. You do not believe in a strong military, not to wage war but to protect a country, and. you do not believe in the best care and respect for veterans. A major item on Trump's platform was to rebuild and properly supply the military, which he has done and continues to do big time. He has also brought in sweeping changes to ensure veterans and their families receive adequate and timely services and are accorded the deepest respect they deserve. He does not believe in waging war. He wants to bring soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan home, but he believes in a highly effective defensive military with the capability to strike hard. You do not believe in reasonable drug prices for ordinary people who need treatment. Trump initiated the largest program ever towards reducing the price of drugs. You believe in sanctuary cities. Those are cities in the U.S. that give sanctuary to illegals and illegal criminals. Such cities include San Francisco and Los Angeles. Trump is fighting against these criminal safe havens. You are on YouTube, I suggest you check out what is happening in San Francisco [Pelosi's District], Los Angeles, etc. (the streets are laden with homeless drug addicts, criminal aliens, and littered with used needles and feces -- this is not hearsay. It is documented with video. You don't believe that negotiations with other world leaders is a good idea. Trump is known for reaching out to leaders to work out win/win deals. Doesn't always work, but he's out front doing that. You believe that corruption and unethical get-rich behavior from elected representatives is a good idea. Trump received flack for co-operating with Ukraine to root out the corruption that took place in that country with Obama officials, including the Maidan Coup. (I suggest you learn about the corruption that went on in the Ukraine -- it's a complex and deeply disturbing story. Biden should not even be allowed to run for president with such a fog of corruption surrounding him. You believe in not vetting people who enter a country from countries that harbor extremist Islamist terrorists. You believe in letting them in without question. Trump believes in not allowing them in and, for immigration as a whole. to introduce meritocracy as a criterion for entry to the U.S. You believe in globalism. Trump is anti globalism. (Globalism includes the outsourcing of national governments to unelected foreign governments and unelected commissions.). You believe in identity politics, the current mantra of Democrats right now. On the top of their lists for discrimination in the workforce: white men. All in all you obviously have absolutely no idea about President Trump's platform and accomplishments. He's extremely popular because his policies are focused on the people of America. Not the elites. Not the people of other countries. Not corrupt politicians -- that's why they are up in arms against him. He came in with an agenda to drain the swamp -- end their corruption.
Lastly, if you want to understand what has gone on in the U.S., and why the Democrats should be off bounds, putting aside their notions of socialism, big government, globalism, identity politics, for a moment, the attempted coup against the president, whatever your political leaning, should send chills down your spine. Many books and articles have documented this seditious plot, but I recommend you read "Witch Hunt," by Gregg Jarret, a lawyer by training. It is impeccably sourced and documented and outlines the timeline of the plot, the individuals involved and the media's complicity in the plot.
That is the end of my conversation with you.

Why the vilification of Russia? Hegemony and resources. Plunder Ukraine and Russia, steal their precious resources, and invade that area of Eurasia for US unipolar power. Insular, paleo, regime-change, cold-war, archaic, doddery thinkers in the military, State Department, White House and intelligence services, who somehow missed that the USSR collapsed and Russia emerged as a completely different country, a federal republic based on freedom and democracy, with the same three checks and balances of Executive, Legislative, and Judicial branches as the US - only difference is that the US checks and balances are not working. These archaic thinkers stuck the USSR enemy label on to Russia - not just to maintain their own lofty positions but also to keep MIC profits churning, not to forget the campaign of hatred to justify their inept hegemonic plans to uninformed Americans and Westerners.

Representatives of the Head of State must be professional and apolitical. They cannot engage in politics, or trash the leaders of allies, as Meghan Markle trashed President Trump without knowledge, reason or intelligence. They cannot engage in culture movements with political overtones, as Meghan Markle and Harry did, lecturing people about climate change, a controversial notion, at best, while jetting off on private jets; or generally voicing their opinions on other hot-topic issues, such as over-the-top feminism, victimhood, or imagined white supremacy.

Meghan Markle is very lucky President Trump hasn't filed a lawsuit against her for defamation, slander and libel. She has publicly declared he is a racist and misogynist, without a shred of evidence. I guaranty that if one were to question her about President Trump's platform, she wouldn't have a clue. She appears not to have a clue about Biden's platform: turn towards socialism; big government; high taxes (does Harry understand that?); inaction against, and pandering to, BLM, a publicly declared Marxist organization that wants to whitewash the history, culture and accomplishments of whites, as its members and paid contractors maraud through American cities, rioting, burning, looting, destroying, attacking and even killing The Royal Family must be horrified at M&H's choice of candidate. Biden, himself, is marred in scandal and corruption in Ukraine and China. The Royal Family must be horrified at M&H's antics: trashing the leader of Britain's greatest ally; siding with an organization and political party both deeply mired in corruption and sedition; not being familiar Biden's position on Britain's post-Brexit relationship with the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland; not understanding that it is President Trump who offers the most to Britain right now in a potential post-Brexit trade deal.

Surprise, surprise, this woman, Adrienne Adams, worked in "Human Capital Management" (not sure why that euphemism came into being - to make HR managers sound more important?). Why do I bring that up. It's the door through which woke and CRT (diversity, equity and inclusion) has oozed into corporations. You are right, Dave, she appears to be a racist. Her record also includes advocating for equity for children. Equity, of course meaning equal outcomes, not equal opportunities, policies on track to ruin the potential of children who find themselves dragged into such destructive dictates.
Perhaps we should remove Adrienne Adams because she is a descendent of the Africans who enslaved their own and sold their slaves to merchants from across the world. You say she didn't have anything to do with that? No problem. That's the new norm from fools such as Adrienne Adams. Pick on anyone to blame: someone alive today or someone out of the history books and cancel them. Want someone from today? How about all those blacks murdering blacks in Chicago. Let's get Adriene Adams and cancel her for the violence in Chicago. That's how ridiculous all this nonsense is and how stupid she and her ilk are.

Firstly, let's get confirmation on the collateral damage in Gaza. Hamas has failed to deliver basic services, essential services, and acceptable living conditions for Gaza, so I highly doubt its ability to deliver an accurate fatality count, let alone that for as long as I can remember, it has always been the modus operandi for ME terrorists to exaggerate deaths - even stage destruction and losses - to elicit Western support.
Right now, the civilized world should be helping Israel to get rid of Hamas, and yes, that will mean collateral damage.
Instead, Hamas is once again bamboozling the West to feel sympathy for it through the people of Gaza who are their tools.
The people of Gaza have never objected to Hamas. They have supported them. That has consequences.
A recording of a terrorist's phone call to his parents in Gaza has been publicized - likely a captured phone. It illustrates the support of Gazans for Hamas. He called his parents, screeching that he had killed twelve Jews, telling them that he had their blood on his hand, asking his parents' if they were proud of him.
Einstein once remarked on all the evil in the world but warned more evil are those who support the evil or do nothing to stop it.
It would be difficult, even today, to get decent people to suggest the German people should have been given humanitarian aid, emergency services, and humanitarian escape routes, as Hitler and his goons decimated European Jews in death camps, gas chambers and slave factories. Of course not. Humanitarian aid for the German people came after Hitler and his regime had been wiped out.
Humanitarian aid for Gazans should come after Hamas has been wiped out, and it is becoming evident that the conventional wisdom of a two-state solution is impossible. Gaza has been independent since 2005, equally as dangerous and arguably more dangerous than the West Bank with Israeli military occupation
So complex, but rewarding terrorism is a fool's game. Huge benefit to surrounding countries to take the Palestinians? Even they want nothing to do with their terrorism

What most people, especially Democrats and Mueller-types are missing is the paradigm shift that has occurred with the advent of the internet. It is not only ludicrous to suggest that this Russian internet company influenced the U.S. election, but it is also absurd to suggest that any chatter on the internet unfairly influences any election (particularly coming from these left-wing democrats screaming for globalism). The internet resulted in political discussions moving from living rooms, dinner tables, and phone calls (yes, even international phone calls) to the global internet. Political discussions now occur globally. Will they influence a voter here and there? Probably. So, politicians better be damn sure they have the best and most ethical common-sense messages, because global, political chatter will out deviousness, lying, obfuscation, dishonesty, ignorance and sheer incompetence immediately -- and that's the way it should be.

Anna Wintour is long past her sell-by-date at Vogue. In my view she has ruined the magazine. Gone are wonderful page spreads filled with dreams and beauty, replaced by stick figures and pages of little snapshots one sees in amateur family photo albums. Dabbling in politics that should be off-bounds in fashion magazines. Scrambling to catch up with vacuous influencers for teens (Kardashians). An editor with strange and frumpy taste in clothes waving her stick over the fashion industry. But worst of all, for decades not featuring, or very seldom featuring, black/brown models, then when woke comes after her, suddenly catapulting into diversity, with a scramble to banish white models, when she should have been featuring beautiful models from all groups at all times. Had she done that, she could have avoided the hypocritical, superficial over-the-top diversity to pretend that Vogue has always been inclusive.

73% of Canadians do not want to pay for Harry and Meghan's security. I agree. They should pay for their security themselves. Don't think the Duke of Windsor received any funding for security. Meghan has been an immature activist. By all appearances, she plans on continuing to be one. Totally inappropriate for any royal representing the queen, and I believe, inappropriate for a lesser royal. Meghan Markle lost me when I saw the video of her slanderous rant against President Trump, without reason, intelligence, specifics or evidence. Just a puerile rant of pure, unsubstantiated hatred. That rant followed her into the Royal Family. Why should Canadians pay them a dime, for their security or otherwise, especially those who are adamantly against their lecturing, woke, uninformed, identity politics. A step in the royal fold or any public funding, while she publicly, without substantiation, defames the leader of an ally of both the UK and Canada is most definitely a no-go.

Kellogg used the word, "truce." That won't go down well with Russia either, unless it is a limited truce while Ukrainian elections are held, before negotiations for permanent solutions. Should those who fled instead of staying in Ukraine to fight for, and build, their country, as they egged on more and more Western lethal funding, get a vote? I think not, but, hey, that perhaps would not be democracy.

It was no other than Hillary Clinton, with Obama cheering on the sidelines, who unleashed the horrors, death, destruction and incursion of ISIS in Syria. She assisted the terrorists. When a journalist at one of her book signings asked her why. She said they were "moderate rebels." Her moderate rebels were nothing but homegrown and insurgent extremist ISIS terrorists. Assad had kept the lid on unrest by locking many of them up in his prisons. Then the terrorists set up a ruse: demonstrations against conditions in Assad's prisons to gain Western support. Altruistic and war-mongering Clinton fell for it and sided with the terrorists, unleashing hell fire, war, death, destruction, and an opening for ISIS, as she screeched the need for regime change - regime change, a Clinton modus operandi. Not that Assad's prisons were any business of Clinton/Obama, but assuming for a second they had a say, then changes should have been made diplomatically. Prior to Clinton's civil war in Syria, that country had been one of the few secular countries, with freedom of religion, in the Middle East. Clinton then moved on to her regime change in Libya. The rebel factions saw her coming. Picked out her naivete, gullibility, and unbelievable unawareness of the situation on the grown. The factions had their way with her. Libya fell into chaos, death, destruction, civil war, people smuggling, ISIS infiltration and the worst crisis in Europe since WW2. "We came, we saw, he died," she cackled and screeched when Gaddafi met a violent & vicious death. Then she fell asleep at the switch -- no answer to that 3:00 am call -- and attempted to avoid culpability for the deaths of four Americans, including the ambassador, by mounting a false talking point about a squirmish spilling out of a nasty American video, when in fact Benghazi was a well planned and orchestrated terrorist attack.

Problem is that the token VP in the wings, for whom no one voted and who had to drop out of the primaries for lack of support from her own party, will be cognitively alive, but equally as incapable and dangerous as president. Who ever thought that in the U.S., founded on the principles of free speech and democracy, an unelected, unsuitable individual would end up as president, which appears highly likely. That's what we witness in banana republics an third-world despotic countries. Now we witness it in the U.S.
Worried Democrats wrote to take away Biden's control of the red war button, but without the guts to stop covering up their stolen el., they proposed that control over the red button should be in the hands of demented Biden, along with Nancy Pelosi, an equally dangerous woman who has lost control of her emotions, and Kamala Harris, an aggressive attack dog, lacking any experience in international affairs or capability in human relations.

There was a time when a vaccine worked to protect a person from a virus. During those days, in a pandemic or epidemic, those who came down with a virus were isolated, not the healthy people. Almost everyone agreed to be vaccinated, because the vaccines worked. They were protected. The vaccine methodology was to inject a disabled virus against which the immune system reacted and created antigens. The AstraZeneca vaccine works that way; however, clotting side effects, some lethal, have been reported. Some countries no longer use it. The Pfizer and Moderna vaccines promote a person's own cells to grow the viral spike proteins to which the immune system responds. That process involving a person's own cells is scary as hell, in my view, and no one knows the long-term risks. These two vaccines also have side effects in the form of cardiac issues. In summary, to coerce, bribe or force someone to be vaccinated is deeply wrong, especially when the coercion comes from government bureaucrats, elected officials, healthcare administrators and scientists who have been deeply corrupt, with undeclared conflicts of interest and biased advice blowing in every direction. If the vaccines work, then they are safe from those who take the risk to not be vaccinated. If the vaccines do not work, with a risk of acquiring the virus anyway and passing it on to others, then why on earth are people being forced to be vaccinated?

@HughMcdanel -- Very strange, insular, not-thought-out comment. The most serious crisis humanity faces today is massive, irresponsible population growth. ignore this at our peril, for it will create massive crises already banging loudly on our doors: food shortages, environmental damage, hunger, disease, international and civil war, unwanted migrations, unemployment, failing schools, crowding, out-of-reach housing, homelessness, rioting (when most of hard-earnings are taxed away), on and on.
Globalists are puerile touchy-feely types who skipped math, sciences, economics, finance, business, demographics, political science, history in school. Some of them want a touchy-feely world where anyone can move to any country without passports or restrictions. Others want to turn the world population upside down and eliminate Westerners by invading their countries through illegal and forced legal immigration. The huge problem with both these scenarios is that the migration flows are ALL ONE WAY TO THE WEST. So globalism is a misnomer, a euphemism for invading the West and making the West pay. Fill your country up to overcapacity, particularly without meritocracy, as is the case in foolish Western countries right now, and stay tuned for economic , financial and societal ruin.

There shouldn't be approval of censorship under any circumstances, not even for the country demanding the censorship or self-promotion. There is a lot of evil in the world. The CCP's control over, and censorship of its people, is evil. More evil are those who not only do nothing about it, but also actually cooperate, all in the name of their bank accounts. There's another issue here as well. Make your movie in China, but hire so many low- and high-level local workers and talent, so China can learn movie making and ultimately sell its movies to the world and knock Hollywood (used as a euphemism for the movie industry) off the rails. Hollywood, by the way, with its delusional, has-been, low-informed "stars," now parroting on behalf of China, already on its way out.

The elephant in the room? A declared need for regime change in Russia! Why? Putin is no Stalin, Honecker, Mao, Pol Pot, Chavez, Maduro, Castro, Mugabe, Amin, etc.
Russia, under Putin, had vastly improved since the collapse of the USSR, was flourishing economically & socially, and had never done anything untoward to the US, EU, UK, Cda.
Putin created a SMO to end 8-year Ukrainian genocide against Donbass Russians, after Biden/West refused diplomacy to end that genocide. Instead the West sided with genocide; supplied and trained Nazi militias; became an ally of the most corrupt, bankrupt, country in Europe. WHY? After WW2, WHY? Obviously for plundering and profit. Or could it be uninformed pure hatred & racism?
Biden and his EU lap dogs were calling for regime change before Russia formed a SMO. In fact Liz Truss threatened to wipe Russia off the face of this earth.

Primary cause of the UK's increasing energy costs and generally increasing prices? Hello! Wake UP! Evil sanctions and war against an innocent country, Russia, and funding for a US proxy war in Ukraine.
Russia's SMO was not the start of this war. It was a last resort to end Ukrainian genocide against D/Russians and US/NATO aggression at Russia's border, after the US/West refused Putin's calls for negotiations.
Britain played a particularly nasty role in the latest phase of this 8-year US war. Liz Truss, UK foreign secretary at the time, threatened Russia that Britain would target anyone in the Kremlin who had anything to do with the continuation of Russia. An ignorant, reckless declaration of war BEFORE Russia's SMO. Within two days of her abominable behavior towards Sergey Lavrov in Moscow, Putin declared Donetsk and Luhansk as independent states. They asked for Russia's help to end the Ukrainian genocide against them. Given the US/West refusal of diplomacy the SMO was formed.
The UK/US/EU/West now supports that genocide, Ukrainian nazism, and the deeply corrupt Ukrainian government, the same horrors against which millions died in WW2 fighting against Germany.

Harry and Meghan should definitely lose all titles. I was going to say that it is astonishing that this "holier-than-thou" couple support a political party that was involved in the most vile, corrupt political scandal in U.S. history -- an attempted coup (totally proven with evidence); but on second thought it is not astonishing. Meghan is an ignorant starlet; Harry, apparently her ignorant lapdog. Judging by her libel/slander against President Trump, she has absolutely no idea about him, his platform, his accomplishments or background, simply picking up CNN's rhetoric that he is racist and a misogynist without a shred of factual evidence. Furthermore, they are supporting BLM, a publicly declared Marxist organization, that has been rampaging through American towns, rioting, looting, burning, attacking and even killing - an organization that is enveloped in racism, as it adheres to Critical Race Theory, a theory that advocates advantages by skin color and the destruction of white culture, history and accomplishments. They are supporting a presidential candidate that is mired in proven corruption in Ukraine and China. Harry and Meghan's blind, uninformed, public interference in U.S. politics is an intolerable situation for both Britain and the U.S., and it should end.

@victoriar9728 Carnivore diet is not healthy, but mostly keto is. No added sugar. No fruit juices. No bread, muffins, baked goods, pasta, rice, potatoes (or very little). Careful with high-sugar fruits (bananas, etc.) Protein (meat, eggs, dairy), vegetables and low-sugar fruit. Easy to maintain, once acclimatized.

Ignorance destroys democracy. What changes? Education.

So "Biden" called Doocy to say, "It's nothing personal, pal"? MG, how transparent of Biden and his hippies. Biden wouldn't know how to click a phone number on a cell phone. Such a call is so incredibly out of Biden's character (throughout his years in politics), that we know his hippies, scared to death they are in line to lose their jobs, maneuvered Biden to make that phony call.
As backup. Biden's former wife drove into the side of a truck (while Biden was having an affair with Jill), tragically, a fatal accident for her and their daughter. For years, Biden publicly repeated the lie that the truck driver had been drinking. He had not been drinking. He was completely absolved of any responsibility for the accident. Biden's lies were extremely hurtful and destructive to the truck driver's family. They begged him to stop. Finally, he apologized to the family and agreed to stop. He REFUSED to set the record straight with, and apologize to, the public.

@frothybeaver4869 I wouldn't go that far. I advocate for a very low-rate, flat tax. Imagine, huge IRS/CRA departments pretty well gone overnight. Ever seen Western tax manuals? They are inches thick. Gone overnight. Tax returns that are so simple, everyone can do them online. H&R Block , et al tax departments, gone.
Along with imposing a flat tax, legislation to embed limits on government spending and borrowing. If a gov. dept's money runs out, then, just like private enterprise, it would have to cut costs, become more efficient, lay people off.

As more information starts coming out about FBI corruption and FISA abuses before Trump's campaign, perhaps Mueller will be caught up in that sticky web -- maybe one of the reasons he, too, is still viciously, nefariously, underhandedly and with unbelievable puerility, still pushing the false accusations against Trump. Meanwhile, seems to me that the first action for Mueller, as special counsel, should have been to determine the veracity of the Steele dossier, used illegally to obtain FISA warrants and the basis for the phoney Trump/Russian collusion narrative. A lawyer wouldn't have to be that smart to determine the complete fabrication of the dossier -- hence no need for a special counsel -- and closed the investigation down immediately. That is what an ethical, professional lawyer would have done. Mueller is obviously neither ethical nor professional. He's a bottom-feeding political hack. He didn't check the veracity of the charges, because he knew they had been entirely made up.

@arunnarzary7536 For your comment to be accurate, it requires the full context. America is not a war-mongering country. The Obama Administration, courtesy of Hillary Clinton, was a war-mongering administration. Its regime change policies caused chaos, civil war, death and destruction in Ukraine, Syria, Libya, to a lesser degree, Egypt, and countries south of the Sahara, as weapons, courtesy of Hillary Clinton, flowed as far south as those regions. The destruction resulted in the worst crisis in Europe since WW2, the migrant crisis (the majority of them are not refugees but migrants from all over the world, particularly Africa and the Middle East). I am not so sure about the war in Iraq. I believe it is questionable whether there were weapons of mass destruction; however, Saddam Hussein gassed his own people, just as Hitler had done. There is not a decent person in the world today who objects to the war against Hitler, so why object to war against Hussein -- just throwing that out there for thought. As for Afghanistan, that was a defensive war against a vicious attack on America, planned and orchestrated from Afghanistan. Should America still be in Afghanistan? Not a black and white answer. I say, let the waring factions obliterate each other and keep America's military men safe at home. Problem is that without continued presence in Afghanistan, more terrorist attacks will be planned and carried out. America is (and Europe should be) at war against extremist Islamist terrorism. Europe is no Banana Republic, not with any US involvement; however, EU countries are relying more and more on foreign cash. German cash! For that they are Banana Republics, beholden to Germany.

@arunnarzary7536 Balkans/Bill Clinton, not having a clue about the dynamics on the ground. Vietnam, Central America and Korea, all in my view, necessary in the context of the time. The EU is going to disintegrate, but more slowly now that countries are financially beholden to Germany. They'll just default. The world needs stronger countries within Europe. Not a Republic of Europe run by fools. I agree that it is important that Russia be economically strong -- also not maligned as the West seems intent on doing.
A few changes the world needs:
(1) Reduction in massive, irresponsible population growth.
(2) Independent, national countries, with international co-operation (provided no theft of technology, currency manipulation, etc.).
(3) New immigration protocols:
(a) Zero tolerance for illegal immigration. Immediate deportation. No hearings.
(b) Dramatically reduced legal immigration of equal exchanges based on meritocracy and commitment to adapt to standards and traditions of new country. Given qualifications of financial self-sufficiency, suitable education and language skills, if two people from Country A want to move to Country B, they can do so, as long as two people from Country B want to move to Country A. An equal exchange. If no two people want to move to Country A, then it's a no-go. Such a policy would eliminate immediate national population growth, ensure immigrants are not a burden on tax payers and immediately contribute to society, and make those from unpopular countries so damn mad, they would insist on changes, eliminating the desire to emigrate in the first place.
(4) Massive upgrade in education standards in the West, particularly in the U.S., Canada and Britain. Diminished education creates dysfunctional democracy.
(5) End exploitive outsourcing and insourcing of cheap labor that puts huge downward pressure on wages, destroys jobs and decimates manufacturing.
(6) This one will be very difficult. Direct education towards science and away from religion. World peace will not be achieved until Islam goes through a world-wide reformation to adapt to modern standards.
(7) Zero tolerance for the loss of professional journalism. International code of ethics for journalists, with criminal consequences for infractions.
(9) New standards of behavior for politicians, with criminal consequences for politicians who deliberately lie about their opponents, their opponents platforms and accomplishments.

@patriciakimball8150 I agree. Without full, professional journalism, democracy becomes a crapshoot. As a woman, I couldn't believe that people would support corrupt Hillary Clinton, so I made a point of questioning liberals. I discovered they knew absolutely nothing about her or Obama, or Trump, or now Biden, their platforms, goals, accomplishments or failures. When it came to Trump, they threw CNN et al slander at me, without reason or intelligence. Without professional journalism and truth, ethics and honesty among politicians, democracy becomes dysfunctional. No way on earth, in an informed and ethical country would Biden ever be president.

I agree; however, those public defenders did a really terrible job. Of course Chandler is guilty beyond any reasonable doubt, and apparently, in accordance with Wisconsin law, automatically gets life in prison. The open question was whether he could get parole.
If I had been his attorney, I would have done everything in my power to dig out, through investigation and witnesses, trouble in the shadows of that family. There must have been something that turned Chandler into such a destructive liar and ultimately a vile murderer out of paranoid fear of his parents finding him out, whether the motivator was family dynamics or serious mental issues. A hint of something amiss was that no alarm bells rang at the absurd, running lies he told.
I would have used that line of defence towards a possibility of parole for him. I am not stating whether I think he should have been granted an opportunity for parole, just what I would have done if I had been his attorney.

Missed the plot. Putin has never threatened nuclear war. He has said in response to Western threats and numerous hints of nuclear war that he would respond in kind to US/Western aggression.
It is, of course, Western, inept, woke "leaders" and corrupt, woke media that has been very successful at fooling the likes of you that Putin started this war.
The Ukraine War started eight years ago, after the US Invasion of Ukraine and initiation of a bloody coup, the Maidan Coup, to oust a duly elected president because he favored friendly relations with Russia. The coup spilled into official apartheid against Russian-Ukrainians, civil war, and Ukrainian genocide against Donbass Russians. Putin relentlessly called for diplomacy to end the genocide and US/NATO agression. The US/ West refused diplomacy.
Britain's foreign secretary at the time was a leading aggressor. BEFORE Russia's SMO, she threatened that Britain would target anyone in the Kremlin who had anything to do with the continuation of Russia, a reckless, ignorant, declaration of war. Meanwhile, Biden started threatening Putin and Russia, as he backed a huge increase of Ukrainian military at the Donbass close to Russia's border. Within two days of Liz Truss's abominable behavior towards Sergey Lavrov in Moscow, Putin recognized Donetsk and Luhansk as independent states. They asked Russia for help to end the Ukrainian genocide against them. Given the US/West refusal of diplomacy, the US/NATO menace at its border, and Britain's declaration of war, Russia formed the SMO to primarily end the genocide.
That is a very brief summary of events. Astonishingly, most in the US, UK, EU, West are so woke indoctrinated, afraid to learn the facts and counter with the truth that they have fallen into supporting Ukrainian genocide, nazi infiltration in Ukraine, and the most corrupt, despotic government in Europe, Zelensky's Ukrainian government.

All the media, including you guys, are missing the point here. That is the unsubstantiated vilification of Russia by both Democrats and Republicans. The USSR collapsed in 1991. They treat Russia as if they think it is still the USSR. What is it exactly that Russia has done to the U.S. Trump/Russia collusion and interference in the US election? A complete fabrication created by Hillary Clinton to detract from her email scandal, and spread, with the help of a false dossier funded by Hillary Clinton, seditious Obama FBI coup mongers, corrupt, colluding media. Russian hacking? Crowdstrike with huge affiliations with Democrats, started this false rumor, only to admit months later that it had no evidence of such interference. Navalny? A political activist and agitator funded by Western Soros-type organizations. Takeover of Crimea? An area where well over 50% of the people are Russian, after a referendum with over 90% participation and over 90% in favor of Russian management. The Nordstream Pipeline? What right has the US to prevent the Russians building a gas pipeline to deliver gas to Europe. Ah yes, it all comes back to US foreign interference in Ukraine with the Maidan Coup and vilification of Russia to prevent Ukraine from developing trade relations with Russia that might dampen the US corrupt interference in Ukraine and US shadowy business dealings that rely on a Ukraine/EU relationship versus a Ukraine/Russia relationship. Stinks on the part of the US.

@David Edwards - Is "left" still a thing? I have no idea what that is supposed to mean. Result of dumbed-down education and lack of writing clarity? The Democrats are the most left leaning they have ever been, calling for socialism (cloaked in various adjectives to make the goal less threatening); globalism (loss of national laws, rules and identity, a euphemism for one-way migration and the replacement of a society); open borders (many skipped math in school and have no idea what continuous high net legal immigration and continuous high net one-way illegal migration will do to a country's society, economy and identity); identity politics that does away with the best rising to the top, replaced by equal outcome rather than equal opportunity -- couldn't be a policy that more divides society); sanctuary cities to protect illegal immigrants, criminals, people smugglers, drug addicts, drug pushers, gangs, and unemployed illegals, all of whom now fill city streets with their tents, drugs, human waste and filth; calls for taxpayers to pay for all healthcare, schools, housing and food for the illegals -- great way to really make hard-working people really angry, drain a state of brain power, and empty the coffers; absurd demands to fix "climate change" that would very quickly create the most serious world economic crisis ever, as they parade in their petroleum-derivative clothing, not understanding science, math, economics, finance or business -- by the way there is no such thing as human-induced climate change -- pollution, yes, but not climate change; gender stretching two genders into -- what is the number -- 45 genders? Utter madness.
Now about Labour in the UK promising to ban public schools -- great tactics to ensure a massive loss in an election: ban the best schools, replace them with third-rate schools, the future leaders of Britain. Guess what would happen if they were ever successful with such a ridiculous notion. The elite and those willing to work damn hard to send their kids to the best elite schools would send them overseas. Education can be big business. Tons of excellent private schools will fill the niche in other countries. Frankly, if I were working class in Britain, I would make damn sure my children were taught how to speak English properly.

A nasty little man, Nadler, thumping his little fingers when questioning exposes these two Democrat intellectually challenged "constitutional experts." How mighty, ivory-tower, law schools have fallen. This female law professor, Pamela Karlen literally shook with hatred as she spat out personal attacks against the president through his son, a minor. An absolute disgrace, both of them who are supposed to teach college students, yet resort to personal attacks against a man with whom they disagree, instead of sticking to the issues and discussing them with reason, objectivity and intelligence. No wonder lawyers are becoming dumber and dumber, now rated below used-car salesmen. They are being taught by professors who, by all appearances, should have no right to be in lecture halls. Shame on them both, especially Pamela Karlen, a woman, who supported Hillary Clinton who has been a long-time enabler of serial sexual abuse.

@honeyowen3163 So, you watch the fake news and don't have the wherewithal to ask questions and dig deeper. Seeing comments like yours make so angry. So deeply disturbing, because, you haven't bothered to find out the details and are sucked into siding with one of the most shocking situations in US political history. One of the most troubling situations in Western democracy right now, particularly in North America and the UK is the ignorance of electorates. Ignorant voters vote for the wrong people based on the wrong information, then wonder why things go so wrong. The MSM has colluded with the traitorous Democrats, tossing professional journalism out the window, to exploit uninformed people, such as you, to spread their political agenda through lies, slander, libel, ignoring positive news and relentless, irrational attacks on opponents. The loss of professional journalism, stands, hand in hand, with ignorant voters, as one of the most dangerous situations in present society. You should be outraged that you are being so exploited. I will address your comment in my next response.

@honeyowen3163 (1) Astonishing that in your next comment you would admonish people for not having all the facts when you do not have the facts. So, I am going to give you the facts. It will be long -- may be divided into a few responses because of the length. I hope you will read it, although, judging by your uninformed comments, you are not one who bothers to read to find out facts. Whether you read my responses or not, others will and be informed.
Firstly, General Flynn was not charged with working with an enemy foreign country. He was charged with lying to the FBI. Secondly, Russia is not an enemy country. The USSR, which was an enemy, collapsed in 1991. Now about the Flynn case:
On January 5, 2017, during a meeting in the White House, attended by Obama, Biden, Comey, Brennan, Rice, Yates and likely Strzok, they plotted how to frame an innocent man, General Flynn, knowing he was innocent. How do we know? From their own notes, subsequently released after FOIA/legal requests had been ignored. During that meeting Biden suggested they use the antiquated Logan Act to get Flynn. The Logan Act does not apply to modern circumstances and has never been the basis to convict anyone. It was enacted in the early, chaotic days of the formation of the United States to prevent people without authority from negotiating with foreign governments. General Flynn was not working with an enemy foreign country. He had a phone call (illegally used by the corrupt FBI and media) with the Russian ambassador. As the incoming National Security Advisor, he also had authority. As the corrupt media pounced on an allegedly inappropriate phone call, that too was released for all to see that nothing untoward was discussed during the call. Furthermore, General Flynn actually cautioned the ambassador on following up negatively with respect to US sanctions.
As an aside, no wonder the Logan Act was on the tip of Biden's tongue. His son was, and had been busy for many years, negotiating with foreign ENEMY and neutral governments, WITHOUT ANY AUTHORITY. What was he negotiating? He was selling access to, and benefits from, Joe Biden as VP and potential future president. In other words, the Bidens were illegally engaged in foreign influence peddling. Joe Biden and his family shared in the riches, at the expense of America and Americans. How do we know about these nefarious activities and division of the spoils? Money tracing, Joe Biden, himself, boasting on video, court documents from Europe, information on the website of the bank of the CCP (China) before the removed it, sworn testimony from the Ukrainian prosecutor, testimony from people involved, and not least documents on H. Biden's laptop which he forgot to pick up from a repair shop. Outrageously, the MSM refused to report the Biden foreign influence peddling and evidence on the laptop before the election; and Big Tech censored all information about it, even closing the account of the New York Post that broke the laptop story. Such censorship is what goes on in totalitarian, fascist countries.
Continued....

@honeyowen3163 (3) Comey concocted an excuse of Flynn's relationship with Russia as an excuse to get him. Relationship with Russia?!! An RT dinner attended by many other Western guests? Sitting next to Putin (whom Flynn had often referred to as a dictator/thug)? Giving an interview to a news network? (As an aside, I recommend you watch RT. It is one of the best outlets to obtain untainted news -- just the facts -- on-the-ground footage of situations without any biased voice overlay spreading nefarious agendas.
So Comey ordered two FBI agents to target/question the National Security Advisor, General Flynn, without going through proper channels. Comey boasted about getting away with doing that on national TV. The FBI agents questioned Flynn, decided he had not lied and were in the process of closing the case, when that Jan. 5 meeting took place in the White House. After the meeting Strzok ordered the FBI agents not to close the case. They concocted a lie with which to charge Flynn.
Turned out Flynn's own attorneys had a gross conflict of interest -- a relationship with the other side -- that they did not declare. They advised Flynn to plead guilty, because he was out of money and the prosecutors were threatening to indict and imprison his son. A coerced plea. Then Sidney Powell became his attorney. Turns out his former attorneys were in possession of exculpatory evidence proving both his innocence and that he was framed.
Shame on you for not bothering to find out the facts about this case. The Obama/FBI/CIA attempted coup against President Trump, with collateral damage of Flynn and others is the most shameful political scandal in US history. I suggest you clear up your libellous, comments. They are depraved and wicked. Albert Einstein once commented about evil in the world but pointed out that more evil are those who do nothing about it. In your case, not just doing nothing about it, but actually spreading it WITHOUT FULL KNOWLEDGE. I recommend you read "Witch Hunt," by Gregg Jarrett, a lawyer. One of the most impeccably sourced and documented books I have ever read. He's also an excellent writer, making the entanglements of the sordid plots against President Trump and others easy to follow. If you have a decent bone in your body, you should be disgusted by what happened.

I am conservative. I don't want to see Britain even more messed up under Labor.
Liz Truss is a chilling, ignorant, dangerous woman. Her warmongering and support for Ukraine vs Britain, her support of unacceptable sanctions against Russia that, under Putin, has never done anything untoward to Britain, her funding of Ukraine not Britain, and lastly but most importantly, her reckless declaration of war against Russia, BEFORE Russia's SMO, are all huge components of Britain's mess. Russia's SMO was formed to end Ukrainian genocide against Donbass Russians and US/NATO aggression, after the US/West (including the UK) ignored Putin's calls for diplomacy to end the genocide and aggression.
Instead, Britain, with Liz Truss the most aggressively vocal, chose to side with genocide, nazism and a deeply corrupt Ukrainian government, the very same horrors against which millions died in WW2 fighting against Germany.
Britain cannot be sorted out until it ends all sanctions against Russia and all funding and support of Ukraine.
I have been warning people about Liz Truss for months -- maybe longer. No one paid any attention.

Meghan, Harry and of all people, one of the most corrupt "leaders" (actually a puppet) today, Volodymyr Zelensky are scheduled to receive the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Ripple of Hope Reward. Choosing these three for this award is a travesty!
Volodymyr Zelensky has been directly complicit in the formalized, official Ukrainian government's apartheid policies against Russian-Ukrainians, a first step to the ultimate attacks, genocide and war against them.
Meghan and Harry, if they had a thread of ethics, honor and decency, would refuse to receive this award (for their own behavior of trampling on the human rights of their respective families, but also as royals, lumped with Zelensky, the most unsuitable person today to receive such an award. Their royal titles must be stripped from them.
Not only has Zelensky been complicit in actions against Russian-Ukrainians but against Ukrainians generally. As he sat for Vogue, his goons were hijacking cars to pull out young men at gunpoint to be sent to the front to die as proxy fodder for Biden's evil, manufactured war against Russia - all caught on video.
Zelensky has:
Outlawed any political opposition to him, with dire consequences for anyone who attempts to oppose him.
Nationalized Ukrainian businesses.
Threatened jail time for anyone caught offering humanitarian aid in Eastern Ukraine.
Begged in zoom-rooms for Western tax funds to prop up his Rada and totally bankrupt country, as theft of those funds (and weapons) escalate.
He sold his soul for riches, as one of the most corrupt Ukrainian oligarchs catapulted him to the presidency. He owns high-end properties in the West, as Ukrainians die and suffer, all because he refused Putin's calls for diplomacy to end the US/NATO aggression and the Ukrainian genocide against Donbass Russians.

Chancellor sacked? It should be Liz Truss devoid of leadership skills, the most dangerous, ignorant, chilling, uninformed, inexperienced, warmongering PM ever in Britain, w/ loyalties to death and destruction in Ukraine, attempting to tear Russia apart for no acceptable reason, but to attempt to plunder its resources. Her support of Ukraine, one of the top reasons Britain is now in such dire economic trouble. She does not have the knowledge of economics and finance to sort out the mess, which cannot be sorted out until after Britain ends all sanctions and terrorism (Kerch Bridge) against Russia, and ends all support for Ukraine.

General Flynn MUST BE EXONERATED. The culpable of false charges against him MUST FACE JUSTICE, including, without limitation, the FBI (Comey, McCabe, Baker, Strzok, Page, Pientka (?) Priestap (?); DOJ (Yates, Rosenstein (appointed Mueller) & subordinate lawyers; CIA (Brennan), CIA foreign spies, (Halper); DNI (Clapper); Mueller, Weissmann and subordinate lawyers without the guts, professionalism, or ethics to object; Covington Burling LLP, General Flynn's former lawyers; Hillary Clinton; corrupt & inept press and culpable reporters (they are not journalists) (CNN, MSNBC, ABC, et al, and NYT, WP, and all other media outlets that wrote or featured false stories or commentary about General Flynn)

@Compos Mentis An excellent idea for President Trump to be the centre of attention on July 4th. He is President of the United States -- an extremely popular president, with incredible courage, common sense, negotiating skills, a businessman and outlier, crucial for battling the vile corruption, that has now been unearthed (with tons of EVIDENCE) that existed in the Obama Administration. He has delivered an incredible economic and business situation, in great part due to his pro-business platform, reduction in taxes, and elimination of unnecessary, extremely costly bureaucratic regulations. Employment statistics are the best ever for all ethnic groups. He has had the fortitude to take China on to stop the massive U.S. trade deficit with that country. Any idea about the damage continuous high trade deficits do to a country? I suggest you learn. In addition China has been stealing U.S. technology for decades. President Trump has the guts to say no more. Now, I could go on about the accomplishments of this president, but I think you should take your eyes off the fake mainstream liberal news and learn the facts yourself. You will never know what is going on in the world if you watch outlets such as CNN or MSNBC or ABC, etc.
Turn "loose" the equivalent of "Brown Shirts." President Trump? What utter and complete nonsense, unless equivalent liberal-left Democrats (funded by Soros et al) raise their ugly heads. Now, who were the Brown Shirts? Who would most closely resemble them in the U.S. today? They were a paramilitary organization whose methods of violent intimidation played a key role in Adolf Hitler's rise to power. They engaged in street fights with their political enemies, practiced pseudo-military exercises, and terrorized Germany. Violent intimidation? Antifa and similar extreme, far-left groups have shown up many times over, since Donald Trump declared his candidacy for president, with threats of violence or actual violence, particularly to stop fee speech -- not far-right, extreme speech, but seminars and events featuring highly educated, conservative speakers. I cannot think of President Trump or his followers ever being involved in proactive violence against the left-liberals and Democrats, but the Democrats' intimidating Republicans: Teachers reprimanding students who wore MAGA hats; violence against young boys wearing MAGA hats, then reported as the boys having started the violence; Republicans being turned out of restaurants; university talks cancelled because of threats of, or actual violence. I was scheduled to attend one myself, the two speakers being highly accomplished, highly educated and with millions of followers; left-liberal CEO's of Facebook, Twitter, and You Tube, banning highly intelligent conservatives who have never made any calls to, or engaged in violence, while Maxine Waters is still featured in the FakeNews, urging violence against Republicans. The Brown Shirts, of course were part of the Nazis apparatus, that is the National Socialist German Workers' Party. Who is calling for socialism in the U.S.? Many Democrats, even those in high office. President Trump, on the other hand said clearly that there will never be socialism in the U.S. The other word thrown Trump's way, "fascism." Fascism implies government control and interference, anathema to President Trump, but inherent in liberal welfare systems and corporate regulations of the Democrats. My god, high-level Democrats even attempted a coup against Donald -- then President -- Trump.
President Trump's goal is to instal real fear in the U.S.?!! You have to be kidding. He's the most transparent president EVER! There has not been another president whose policies have been so connected with ordinary people. Didn't know that? Watch the mainstream liberal news, that lost any semblance of professional journalism a long time ago? Name one thing he has done to give you a modicum of a notion that he has a goal to instil fear. Be very careful. No hearsay, innuendos, etc. Just facts with credible sources and substantiation. You won't be able to do it. Frankly, your statement is puerile, ignorant and dangerous. The troubling aspect of it is that you must have had the misfortune to have been educated in one of the many dumbed-down institutions of learning run by left-liberal democrats. The off the wall notions coming out of those graduates today (socialism, globalism, open borders, sanctuary cities with their filth and crime ridden streets, feminism gone amok, SJWs, identity politics, safe places in case someone doesn't like what another has to say, affirmative action and quotas, punishing people today for what their ancestors did, shutting down of free speech labelling opposing opinions as hate speech and racism, the loss of professional journalism, and denial, mitigation or acceptance of an attempted coup) is enough to put fear into any intelligent person -- and that, Compos Mentis, is all on the Demorats' side. You had better understand damn well what you are supporting, because it is not pretty.
Lastly, ever wonder why certain CEO's won't support President Trump and want open borders (that any intelligent person knows is suicide for any country)? Because he is dead against exploitive outsourcing and insourcing of cheap labor, while the CEO's want to fill their pockets with profits and stock deals on the backs of those exploited workers -- Just one example of what you are supporting.

BLM is a self-declared Marxist organization with the goal of wiping out Western history, culture, traditions and accomplishments (keeping the accomplishments, of course, for themselves). One of the leaders, right now under scrutiny for purchasing million-dollar homes (Where did she acquire the funds?). This organization has shamefully exploited black people wanting to improve their lives, using them as soldiers in its evil cause. Currently, this organization, along with ANTIFA is terrorizing America, rioting through its cities, as uninformed Democrat-run states turn a blind eye or let them off scott free, all in the name of a great reset that includes toppling whites under Critical Race Theory and massive non-white immigration/migration.

Wow! That stupid lawyer in 2017. A great example of what is going wrong in the world today. Defending wrongs to promote a political party or point of view. Talk about foretelling the state of today, 2019: extreme outrageous feminism, discrimination against men, fear in the workplace lest a man be wrongly accused by a female co-worker who demands that people believe her and throw out the window, the important principal of innocent until proven guilty. Having said that, it is shocking that any decent woman would ever have supported or voted for Hillary Clinton, a long-time enabler of serial sexual abuse. She even set up war rooms with her smear agent, Sidney Blumenthal, to strategize how to demean, and in some cases have investigated, Bill Clinton's victims. Her name for those victims? Bimbo Eruptions!

Don't keep giving this inept, bigoted DA, Alvin Bragg, a recurring platform. That is part of the goal of the Democrats. Repeat, repeat, repeat, so something nefarious resonates w/ uninformed voters, who then think, "Well, better not vote for Donald Trump. He commited a crime, didn't he?" without any idea about what the crime was, or whether the accusations are valid, because he actually committed no crime, as is the case.

Mitt Romney: Cruel to animals. He strapped poor Seamus to the roof of his car for a 22-hour frigid drive to Canada, stopping once to hose down the chilled and terrified dog after he had relieved himself in fear. He grew wings of a vulture, a corporate vulture, and swooped into vulnerable target companies on wings of massive debt to strip, slice, dice, fire, outsource and fly out, up front, cash and stock carrion dripping from his beak, leaving the carcass company to struggle for years to pay the debt from where the cash portion of his prize came. He muddied and mired the once admirable private-equity game that had sincere investors turning around struggling companies, leaving after an approximate three-year management and turn-around commitment, with a reasonable rate of return. Romney touted his business experience, but voters knew better. He's never in his life run a company with actual products to sell. Then he morphed from a vulture into a chameleon with a scaly skin of many colors, changing his story on the hustings to meet different expectations of each new audience. His campaign loaded with daily contradictions left him on election night, with his family, all dressed up in red, fireworks at the ready, for his victory party. Too bad for Mitt, Obama and his family crashed the party. So, Mitt, your ineptness landed America with the most corrupt administration in history, the farcical, baseless impeachment, just one of the legacies resulting from Republicans having chosen a most unsuitable candidate for the presidential race. They forget to check with Seamus first.

Biden, now exposed at the centre of the fraudulent indictments against Trump, will not be the Democrat contender. Democrats cannot win an election with this man, riddled in dementia, at the helm. He shamed America yet again at the D-Day Remembrances. Rumors have started that desperate Democrats will call in Republican Romey, perfect fit as a chameleon who changes his message to suit the next crowd, but he is a former corporate-raiding vulture. Most importantly people will not forget his cruelty to his dog, Seamus. That cruelty him on his last try. Michelle Obama, another name in the wings is far too disliked. Gavin Newsom has destroyed California. If Trump does not win, America will be finished - continuing down the road of the Biden's hybrid Marxist/Totalitarian-Fascist Regime, with millions of illegal migrants imploding the country from within.

Don't put this feely-feely, woke bs on Americans. Millions of Americans, just as millions of Brits, are disgusted by it, as well as the victim game Harry and his wife are playing. You also missed the central point. The cry-me-a-river, victim whining came after his wife did not understand head-of-state diplomacy and did not get her way. She is an uninformed, political, woke activist. She wanted royal celebrity to catapult her activism and left in a tantrum when she discovered that would not be respected or allowed.
Before she joined the Royal Family, she publicly trashed President Trump, the leader of Britain's most important ally. She called him a racist and misogynist without substantiation, evidence, reason or intelligence. Had she been informed or done any research, she would have known that he is neither a racist nor a misogynist. That public trashing followed her into the Royal Family. It could not be erased. Under those circumstances, it is shocking that the Royal Family allowed her to represent Britain's head of state, rather than insisting that Harry give up all head-of-state duties, roles and benefits if he married her.

@gruntydatsun So, you think that is an excuse? That an employer will say, "Ah, yes, I don't want illiterate employees, but, hay, English is his second language, so I'll hire him and risk my brand." If I were applying for a job in France, say, and were not literate in French (as a second language), do you think employers would be impressed? I gave him some really good advice. I hope he takes it. A decision to become literate (in his second language and hopefully his first language) will not only vastly improve his employment opportunities, but will also vastly improve his life, because our comprehension and understanding of events around us are restricted or expanded by the level of our literacy.

Keep up with your good work and reporting, Mr. Hannity. The corruption of the Clintons, Clinton Foundation, Hillary Clinton, DNC, Democratic Party, Obama's FBI, DofJ, CIA, IRS, etc. (and it appears the Obama White House as well) must be exposed to all the public and the culprits brought to justice. The future of America as a leading nation demands no less.

@youtubedeletedmyaccountlma2263 Of course, and if raw, unedited footage exposes anti-Trump rhetoric for its lies, then that is good. Shame on those who discount real, factual footage because it is in line with President Trump's policies. Shame on all those who support, mitigate, encourage, deny, or ignore the riots that have been taking place in Democrat-run states. Honest, decent, ethical, reflective Democrats should be appalled, admit the corruption, demand those responsible be accountable and charged, and demand that the party be cleaned up before moving on. If any one of those Democrat primary contenders had, had the guts to do that, he/she would have had a chance at becoming president, without having to invoke fraud. Not one of them did. Accordingly, not one of them is fit to be either president or VP.

Keep up your support. President Trump is the best U.S. president ever, in my view. The hatred against him is totally irrational. Liberals are irrationally attempting to paint him as a dictator, Hitler, a Nazi, fascist, tyrant, loony, out of his depth, racist, misogynist, all of which are totally untrue, ludicrous and unfortunately down right dangerous. If they had gone to good schools or learned about history and politics on their own, they would know the truth about these false, venomous epithets. Shame on them all. This period of shame on the left will go down as a shameful time in the history of the US and the world.

I wonder if these frustrated Seattle residents and business people voted for the Democrats and continue to support them. Why do I ask? Because their policies directly lead to the dereliction of these once beautiful cities: open borders, with drugs, criminals, and migrants devoid of financial means pouring in; sanctuary cities where illegal migrants and criminals walk free, are fed and given medical services on the backs of taxpayers; support of the vile policies of outsourcing and insourcing of cheap labor that eliminate jobs and put massive downward pressure on wages. (That's right. out- and in-sourcing -- ever wondered why greedy CEOs refuse to support President Trump? Because they want to continue benefiting on the backs of cheap labor. President Trump is against these destructive policies. Lastly an attitude of poor sods, you're not worth anything, so we'll let you loiter and squat on the streets, use them as your bathrooms, pickup your needles and deliver your dinners, instead of an attitude of god damn it, no, you are worth much more, and we are going to make damn sure we put you on a path to reach your potential: 1) No loitering legislation. 2) Legislation to make feeding street people illegal, leaving it to vetted organizations that require work for food. 3) End sanctuary cities and close the borders. 4) Authority back to and support of law enforcement. 5) Required rehab for beds, including supervision, until they are rehabilitated, with work included in the programs. 6) Dramatic revamping and improvement of education, including mandatory life-planning courses in junior and high school, as well as mandatory sciences, math, economics, finance, business, political science and communications courses. Housing is an issue, but a sidebar; it is not the main issue. Nevertheless, out of control real-estate development pushed by private-equity, banks, pension and savings funds must be greatly curbed. Currently it is not, because each floor of a condominium or office tower delivers hundreds of thousands of dollars in taxes to be wasted in the pockets of civil-servant bureaucrats and politicians.

Blah, blah, the one thing that will ensure the continuation of the greatness of Western values, innovation and processes is MERITOCRACY, together with ethics. Do away with that, and blue, red, yellow, green, black, white -- whatever, the greatness of Western civilization will collapse.

Particularly disturbing is that this green-shirted, despotic, anti-democratic dictator is given a platform. How the mental capacity and ethics of Western leadership have declined!. This former high-heeled trans dancer and p-piano player, pupil of corrupt oligarch, Ihor Kolomoisky, sat for Vogue with his wife and travels the world begging for money for death and destruction, while his SBU goons capture Ukrainian men at gunpoint to be sent to the front to die as proxy fodder for an evil US/West hegemonic war against Russia. Pure Evil.
Zelensky's and Western support for genocide and ethnic discrimination against Russian-Ukrainians, nazism resulting in militarization against Russia, US/NATO aggression and war games against Russia from Ukraine, a non-NATO, country have resulted in loss of Ukrainian territory that will never be regained, because the Russian-Ukrainians in those territories have voted overwhelmingly to be with Russia.

@JC Gible Provide your proof that Donald Trump is a traitor, with EVIDENCE and legitimate sources. No hearsay. As he most certainly isn't a traitor, you will be unable to obtain any such evidence. So you need to apologize. You are very lucky you have not been charged for making such untrue, defamatory statements, without a scrap of evidence. What kind of upbringing and schooling did you have that you think it is just fine to do that? How would you like it, if people were to spread absolute lies about you without a shred of evidence? It wouldn't be pleasant would it? It is amazing how much we say about ourselves through our writing. Your self proclaimed brand shouts highly undereducated, TV watcher, not sufficient acumen to determine professional journalism from political propaganda, highly uninformed about politics, into grooving more than planning a successful future. If I am wrong, I have made those determinations through your self-branding. That is how important brand is; and unless you get it right, it will create hurdles for you throughout your life.

That meeting in the Trump Tower was apparently about the Magnitsky Act and sanctions. It was with Natalia Veselnitskaya, a Russian attorney, who represented Denis Katsyv, a Russian real-estate businessman, who had been sued by Preet Bharara, a US Manhattan attorney on charges of money laundering relating to US fund manager, Bill Browder, who operated his funds out of Moscow. Preet Bharara is a known Democrat, Hillary Clinton supporter and Trump hater, although MSM bios of him state he is non-partisan. Natalia Veselnitskaya was in the US, representing her client, Katsyv in court.
Firstly, I am sure many individuals with agendas meet presidential candidates all the time. Perhaps someone could tell me if I am wrong about this, or if it is illegal. Obviously, the Trump group had no power to repeal the Magnitsky Act at the time (and it was not repealed after Trump became president). Veselnitskaya had no dirt on Clinton. All round no harm done.
Natalia Veselnitskaya has said she never had any dirt on Clinton. She met with the Trump group strictly in relation to the Magnitsky Act. Democrats accused her of acting on behalf of Putin. That is false. She simply advocated for the revocation of the Magnitsky Act, which imposed sanctions against individuals named by Bill Browder in an alleged Russian tax scam against him, resulting in the "theft" of $230 million from Browder. Magnitsky was his "lawyer," who died in a Russian prison.
In response to the Magnitsky Act, Russia stopped the US from adopting Russian children. If I remember correctly, at the time there was a scandal about an American couple returning an adopted Russian child.
Here's the meat of the concerns about the Magnitsky Act. A very convincing case has been brought forward alleging that Browder is actually the one who stole the funds in a complex scheme. One just has to watch the video of Browder being deposed to come away with serious questions about Browder's accusations.
Magnitsky was not a lawyer, as Browder claimed, but an accountant.

To CNN MSNBC Who are the hundreds of thousands supporting the truckers? Groups, families, couples, singles, family dogs, old, middle-aged, young, teens, children, students, workers, professionals, black, brown, white, indigenous, Canadians, immigrants. In other words, a total spectrum of society - law-abiding people who no longer tolerate the totalitarian madness of no-results lockdowns and tyranny of moving-target vaccine passports for "vaccines" that do not work!

Actually, Dave, a s. relation between co-workers is not OK. It is fraught with issues, conflict of interest being just one of them. Everyone in this day and age, at the level of Zucker and his s. partner, Allison Gollust, know it is a no-go, unethical area, company policy or not. In this case the top man in authority in a relationship with a lower-level employee, one he might have promoted because of his relationship. It is wrong for a person in authority to have a relationship with one of his employees. Sensible people go into a workplace, knowing it is a no-no and simply don't go there; however it does happen. Then, one of the partners or both of them should leave.
In the case of CNN, the head guy behaving that way is a warning about everything that will come down the pike: the loss of professional journalism, blatant and puerile propaganda, dangerous goebbelsian propaganda, outright lies and fabrications, slander and libel, total loss of respect, and ultimate implosion.

John Ratcliffe as CIA director. Perfect choice. Hope he takes Kash Patel, one of the best, with him. Ratcliffe was head of DNI in Trump's first term, Ambassador to Germany previously.
Pete Hegseth as SofD, perfect - analyst on Fox News just one of his jobs. He has advocated for the troops and military for years - starting long before FOX. He cares deeply about the troops.
Mike Huckabee as ambassador for Israel. Good choice, ethical, Christian and always advocating for factual news. Loyal to Trump. His daughter is doing a great job as Governor of Arkansas.
Kristi Noem, Governor of South Dakota, for SofDHS is sharp, loyal, steadfast, determined, no nonsense, and loyal to Trump - good for deporting illegal migrants.
Mike Walz as National Security Adviser - don't know enough about him.
Vivek and Musk as co-leaders for DOCE. Perfect. Both loyal. Musk w/ an excellent track record for razoring down and cutting for efficiency. Vivek, astute, articulate and clear.
Rubio as SoS? Iffy. Was once a Ukraine war monger. Changed his mind. Wants the war to end but to end spending for a stalemate, not to end the lethal war against Russia, using Ukraine and its men as proxies, destroying the country in the process. I have a hunch that neither he nor Trump are fully knowledgeable about the Ukraine War and may insist on returning territory to Ukraine, rightly a non-starter. Those who call for territory to be returned support Ukrainian genocide, ethnic cleansing, discrimination, nazism and US/NATO aggression toward Russian-Ukrainians.

@Richard Wilson - Next time you are out and about, look around you. Another explosion in Western society is obesity. I can guaranty you that 99% of obesity is the result of too many processed plants: sugar, flour and baked goods, including bread, pasta, rice, etc. If there is one hormone that is playing havoc with people's lives, it is INSULIN from too much sugar and processed carbohydrates that turn into sugar in our bodies. Fruit and vegetables are good, but meat is the most important nutrient that we have evolved to eat. So a diet of meat, seafood, fish, fruit and vegetables will keep a person very healthy -- easy on the fruit if trying to lose weight, especially raisins (and other dried fruit), pineapple, and bananas.

@Ajila Smith -- If you don't understand my point, then I am sorry you were involved in a dumbed-down education system that didn't teach reading comprehension.
Hints. (1) . The hypocrisy of Democrats about Trump's consensual affairs, in light of Clinton's sexual assaults, is astonishing. (2) The world is too complex for each person's views to be perfectly matched with one candidate's views and actions. One has to have the maturity to figure what is important and what counts. The Trump economy counts big time. It is the best economy in the U.S. ever, particularly for African Americans, Hispanics, women and youths. This economy is directly related to his pro-business platform, tax cuts, incentives for business staying and expanding in America, discouraging outsourcing, eliminating bureaucratic red tape and regulations that serve no purpose, other than to cost companies millions of dollars a year, etc. Clinton could never have delivered this economy, because she is for big government, expanded government, open borders that cost Americans big time, etc. So short consensual liaisons pale in comparison. If a country has a general that has the substantial talent and expertise to defeat an enemy, but the people vote not to use him because he had a couple of affairs, that would be mind bogglingly stupid. Get my points?

@maxgoodwin4438 - Fake news includes the following: relentless negative reporting against President Trump, even twisting his accomplishments to negatives; not covering full reports on an attempted coup in America, a democracy, one of the largest stories of our lifetime; cutting off people if their opinions don't fit CNN's agenda; avoiding news that doesn't meet their agenda; continuously name calling President Trump without reporting the facts about him, his platform, or his accomplishments; not reporting fully on the criminality of Hillary Clinton's server, lying to Congress about her server, her emails and Benghazi, and tampering with and destroying subpoenaed evidence. If you want to watch fake news, watch Lou Dobbs or Hannity. He features, with actual video, the appalling and vile reporting that comes out of CNN (and other fake outlets) every day. It is relentless, puerile, dangerous, chilling and FAKE. I believe it is the most dangerous situation we face today. I cannot tell you the number of people to whom I have spoken who spew irrational hatred against Trump. They know nothing about the attempted coup. They know nothing about Uranium One and the $145 million into the Clinton Foundation. They have no idea that Trump's platform and goals actually correlate very closely with their wishes, wants and needs. They all glean their news from CNN, MSNBC, ABC, the New York Times or the Washington Post. That is an incredibly serious situation, because these people vote.
Ivanka Trump used her personal email account during the transition period. Relative to Clinton very few emails and emails of entirely different content were sent. She did not set up a private server (to avoid detection of an unapproved advisor and illegal payments to a personal pay-for-play slush fund or transmit classified information) as Clinton did. She has not lied to Congress about her emails or any other government business. Her emails were at an entirely level and vanilla (about her personal initiatives (for the good of all). She has not tampered or destroyed subpoenaed evidence.
Hillary Clinton used a private server as Secretary of State transmitting classified and highly confidential material at an entirely different level. She destroyed thousands of emails. She lied to Congress and the public about them. She destroyed them after they were subpoenaed. She paid $12.5 million for a phoney Russian dossier, used illegally to obtain FISA warrants to spy on Trump and his campaign to bring him down, and if he won anyway, they concocted an insurance policy: Mueller to search for Russian Collusion a total fabrication, so hypocritical when the only people colluding with the Russians were Hillary Clinton and her cabal of coup-mongers.
You will never know what is actually going on in America and the world if you watch CNN. If you do, shame on you. Shame on CNN. How sad that you don't have the reason and intelligence to figure out that it is nothing other than a propaganda arm for the Democrats -- even as they become more and more left (socialist) and dangerous, calling for violence against Republicans and mounting that vile and shameful protest and accusations against Justice Kavanaugh. Support them at your own peril. Albert Einstein once said that there is a lot of evil in the world but more evil are those who sit back and say nothing. Hillary Clinton's career of corruption and the recent activities of Democrats is nothing short of evil.

@maxgoodwin4438 - Firstly, who the hell do you think you are, dictating to me to answer three points and to stay on point?! I am not here to educate you. I certainly hope you will use your common sense and brain to determine what is fake news. The loss of professional journalism in the mainstream liberal media is the most serious crisis we face today. I am very sorry if you don't have the intellectual capacity to figure that out.
I will expand on President Trump. I was no particular fan of Donald Trump; however, as a business person in the investment industry, I did follow his ups and downs in business. I once supported Obama. A very important lesson learned. Know you chosen candidate very well. The Obama Administration turned out to be the most corrupt in our lifetime, and the funders and mentors who catapulted him into office should have been a huge warning sign. Unfortunately, those connections were never covered in the mainstream press. I didn't know about them. Very important to do independent research.
Back to Trump. Is he intelligent. Extremely. He graduated from a top military school and one of the top business universities in the world. He grew his father's small multi-million dollar development business into a mega multi-billion dollar, international, conglomerate. He beat sixteen candidates to become the president of the United States, running his primary campaign on his own funds. He has done more in his short time as president than any other president in our lifetime, despite relentless irrational hatred directed his way. So why am I an adamant supporter. I have learned to go directly to the horses mouth -- not to listen to the hearsay of fake news. I started listening to him directly. His ideas make enormous business and plain common sense. That's why he is so popular. He has delivered the best economy in the US ever for all groups, directly attributable to his pro-business platform, tax cuts, reduction in bureaucratic red-tape regulations, and his insistence on fair trade. I agree with his policies: tax reductions, pro-business, elimination of unnecessary regulation, ending massive trade deficits that play havoc with the U.S. economy; his tough stand on terrorism and understanding of the Middle East (Ever researched how Hillary Clinton completely screwed up in the Middle East, resulting in the most serious crisis in Europe since WW2? Do your research. Chilling); his closing the border to people from seven dangerous ME countries -- actually a holdover from Obama; his support of the military and law and order; his stand against Chinese theft of U.S. technology; no to illegal immigration; legal immigration based only on meritocracy (Out of control immigration and the Democrats' stand on immigration is second to the loss of professional journalism as the most serious crisis the US faces right now); his refusing to go along with the TPP and latest UN Compact on Immigration, both absurd documents that hand U.S. sovereign powers to foreign bodies; his tearing up the Iran deal (Did you read it -- just the summary, may be? I bet not. The potential consequences were chilling and so dangerous). on and on.
Is Trump honest. He is the most transparent president of our lifetime -- and I can pretty well guaranty I am a whole lot older than you are so have experienced quite a few more presidents than you. How do I guess that? The rude, entitled way you speak to me in your comments. Unlike Hillary Clinton who is a body of lies, Trump does not lie. He is flamboyant and straight to the point, but he does not lie. That has been proven over and over again as he comes out winning and ahead of the relentless attacks against him. By the way, did you know that a Democrat fired Hillary Clinton from one of her first stints as a lawyer, for in his words being, "an unethical, dishonest lawyer and a liar." As she was practising law at the time, that should have been the end of any public career for her. What had she done? On the Watergate Investigation, during discovery, when it came time to exchange information with opposing lawyers, she stole pertinent information and hid it in her house, so the other side would not see it.
Is Trump ethical. He is highly ethical, and I challenge you to do your research and find out how he treats his employees, those with whom he works, and his friends. He is so successful with foreign leaders and has made historic inroads on the Korean peninsula because he is a great negotiator and he can be trusted. He is a man of his word, whether he is challenging an opponent or helping out an associate or friend. There are tons of testimonials to that effect that you can research -- in books, articles and videos.
After what has happened in Obama's FBI, DOJ, IRS, CIA, the DNC, the Clinton Foundation, the attempted coup, etc., it is absurd that you are questioning Donald Trump's intelligence, honesty and ethics. The irrational hatred against President Trump is wrong, wrong, wrong, whether he is your choice or not. It is in fact evil, and needs to be stopped. It is the fake news that is largely responsible for it. Those who support this evil or sit back without challenging it are more evil, because the future of Western Civilization is at stake.
In challenging me, you chose someone who is extremely well read in politics. You won't win against me unless you are as well informed. Your attempt to demean Trump suggests to me that you are not well informed. I know my stuff. Do tons of research to find out the facts. I challenge you to do the same for your future and the future of your family and/or children.

@maxgoodwin4438 - So obviously a CNN sucker. You will never learn what is going on in the world, if you continue to watch CNN. The fact that you call President Trump evil says a whole lot about you: under-educated, short on business knowledge, willing to sacrifice the U.S. with mad, mad, one way legal and illegal immigration, and lemming-like willing to support the opposing party that attempted a coup -- the most shameful episode in U.S. politics, with Hillary Clinton, an enabler of sexual serial abuse, at the centre of the coup, with her payment of $12.5 million for a false and phoney Russian dossier in an attempt to bring Trump down.

@shelaco1321 You will find that "your American friends" are in the main positively against Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex. It is actually the woke liberals in the UK who are enamoured by her. Most people, including me, are disgusted by her misguided, woke lecturing. She was woke before she ever joined the Royal Family. She had, and continues to, publicly proclaim her irrational hatred of President Trump, without reason or knowledge. For that alone, it seems to me, she can never be invited back as a royal. President Trump is president of the country that saved Britain from being defeated in two world wars and continues to be an ally of Britain, now negotiating trade deals, as the UK leaves the EU. That country cannot have a royal member bashing the leader of one of its greatest allies. She could change (which I doubt) and take on new discretion as a royal, but I am afraid the damage is done, the brand set.

The most chilling of all the "diplomats," leaving aside demented Biden for a moment, is tiny, economically imploding Britain's Foreign Secretary Liz Truss, in my view, an extremely dangerous woman. Not dangerous because of smart, tactics against Russia, but dangerous because of sheer ignorance, hubris and feather plumping to prove herself in a position in which, at this moment, a calm, detached man would be far better. Before she left for Moscow to "negotiate" with Sergey Lavrov, she said Britain would "hit targets including those who are key to the Kremlin's continuation of the Russian Regime." Tantamount to declaring war to wipe Russia off the map. Her behavior at the meeting with Lavrov was ignorant, chilling and abominable. Lavrov was disgusted. I believe it was the last trigger for Russia to go it alone to save the Donbass Russians.

Nobody elected Bill Gates and he's no bio-chemist, virologist, or other relevant scientist. His only claim to fame is money; that's why the organizations come crawling, hands out. His vaccine initiative in India was downright chilling in its adverse results, luckily with the Indian Government turfing him out. The adverse results of his vaccine programs have been startling. The conflicts of interest among him, his foundation, non-governmental organizations, governmental organizations and their officials, big pharma, and the World Health Organization are deeply troubling. The WHO is headed by a documented terrorist who is in bed with China. Bill Gates's philanthropic activities need a serious second look. He has no more right to be individually pushing his pet agendas on the world than I or my neighbors have.
His notion that people are going to accept his off-the-charts idea that everyone should be subjected, coerced and forced to participate in his vaccinations is hitting a definite NO-GO ZONE. Thank you to Robert Kennedy Jr. for bravely pointing out so much that is wrong and troubling about Bill Gates's vaccine initiatives.
To close, along with troubles in the world today, one of the most serious crises we face today is the loss of professional journalism, along with censorship, so dire the consequence, ABC being among the offenders.

@bilbodw I don't find anything wrong with a person who earns his money purchasing a yacht and spending time on it. I think Tucker Carlson's bravery for going against corrupt Washington and all those who support that corruption well worth a yacht. Also, how many people do you think had jobs designing the yacht, producing the supplies to build it, shipping the supplies, building the yacht, and working in the marina keeping it safe and offering services for the people who moor their yachts in the marina. The only issue is the incredible ineptness of officials (starting with Bill Clinton), who decided it would be a good idea to all the supplies to China, instead of keeping them in the US - same applies to all the other Western countries who did the same.
Meanwhile, I believe there is loads of wrong with corrupt types, such as Biden, who gained his wealth, foreign influence peddling, selling access to himself, (I bet some of his donors are extremely angry right now), or the Clintons who had the same pay-for-play scheme going and siphoned the Clinton Foundation funds into their own pockets, or the Nancy Pelosi types who have made millions on insider trading. And not forget the Zelensky types paid by corrupt oligarchs to do their bidding....on and on.

The day the US stops all support, funding, training, participation in, Biden's proxy Ukraine War, will be the day the war ends - and it will be on Putin's terms, that if you go back and check, were always extremely reasonable. Ukraine is bankrupt. Without US financial and military support, it cannot continue its war. US allies are struggling with their own economies, not least as a result of their cowardly sanctions against Russia. They, will not continue in this proxy war, without the US. Even if, Russia walks into the territory necessary to ensure Russian-Ukrainians are no longer victims of Ukrainian genocide and discrimination, the war will end.

@themonsterunderyourbed9408 Point of democracy is that political representatives are voted into power, either through a party vote or directly. Unfortunately, in Scotland (as I have been rightly corrected) SOME people voted for him (enough to put him in power though). This man's family CHOSE to leave Pakistan, where all the politicians are a color of his liking, to move to a WHITE country. Imagine if I went to Pakistan and started making waves, insisting that a quota of white people be in positions of power. I would likely end up in a nasty Pakistani jail. Of course, he is free to move to Pakistan.
Bottom line, when such inept and/or racist people end up in power (as has happened throughout the West (whether the ineptness stems from racism, color, or sheer ineptitude), something has gone wrong with the country -- most likely the education systems, with uninformed graduates who vote out of ignorance or as a result of wicked indoctrination, and ignorant graduates become candidates.

Karma! I remember when this corrupt, pretend aviator mocked Trump when Trump was careful going down a steep, slippery ramp (think it was at West Point). Biden derided him, telling his vacuous publicity rats how he, Biden, is able to sprint up ramps....Then Biden fell up the plane stairs not once but three times; got lost in Cornwall, ending up shuffling around a restaurant patio as patrons savored their outdoor meals; came a cropper on his bike; lost his way on platforms; messed up scripts and couldn't string two sentences together without a script; and now falls after not rembering the word, "pilots" in his speech.
These days, many become victims of dementia, but family members watch out for them 24/7, or hide them away in care homes. This man is in charge of the red nuclear button and is already pushing a war he manufactured that to date has taken the lives of over 300,000 men
Shame on all those who support this dangerous pretender. For the sake of America, peace, democracy, freedom, and fiscal responsibility, this war criminal and terrorist (Nord Stream) has got to go!
