'Trump promised to be different, saying that under his presidency he would stop countries β€œbombing each other out of existence. We don’t want that”.

It turns out that is exactly want he wants, as long as the US is the one doing it. β€œWe are just getting started,” -Hegseth.'

Tice and Oakeshott must be so pleased to have fled to Dubai to escape from the hell hole that is London, a terribly dangerous no-go war zone.

Let’s not pretend that Andrew’s activities are separate from his royal status. The whole concept of royalty is based on undeserved privilege, lack of accountability, luxury and hedonism, and the idea that others are beneath you, and can be used.

So the former President of South Korea has been sentenced to life in prison for insurrection, a former prince of England has been arrested for Epstein ties, but in the US Trump is freely blabbering and shitposting because he's protected by John Roberts and the Republican Party?
