#Trump has gifted Argentina $20billion to shore up its government and there is talk he intends gifting another $20billion.

I wonder if #Starmer will finally realise he's been played should Argentina make another play for the Falklands.

So, hang on, Hegseth was on his way back from Nato's Defence Minister meeting in Belgium...but he's Secretary for War, not defence. Why did he go?

Just to clarify, a drawing of a penis, and not one they'd cut off someone and stuffed in the case?

If other countries told Brits they had to learn the language of the country they'd moved to there would be uproar. The Daily Heil would have a meltdown, Farage would be spitting phlem everywhere as he ranted.

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples?

HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.

FIFA won't move the World Cup they're as corrupt as #Trump but the various national football associations really need to take a long hard look at what's safe for the fans.

Americans really need to know the difference between “radical left” (no-one in the US), Liberal (Bernie, AOC), Conservative (Democrats), and basically the Third Reich (GOP).

In a way Trek needs another Dominion type threat, or, mirroring real world events, a Trumplike politician taking control of the Federation and pushing it toward authoritarianism (nearly becoming like its mirror universe self).

Phil Norris @philnorris.bsky.social · 2d

...especially with thier shapeshifter abilities and the who do you trust paranoia. Trek had some of its best episodes during DS9/Dominion War, especially when Starfleet was pushed to do things thar went against everything the Federation was about.

Phil Norris @philnorris.bsky.social · 2d

Sadly new Trek (post-TNG) has a habit of neutering its bad guys. Borg became watered down during Voyagers run. Romulans are now just twirly mustached cartoon villains. Klingons have lost thier edge since DS9 (peak Klingon).

The only decent "bad guys" really have been the Dominion...1/2
