If Trump doesn't help you see what a decent man Biden was when he was in office, then you're beyond hope. And don't bring up him pardoning his son. You are seeing what hell the GOP are putting people through. I say GOP as they are complicit in this "Trump Reich" of terror.

He hates women because he’s always had to buy them (or assault them or rape them). Perhaps, despite his delusions and narcissism he subconsciously knows he’s repulsive & inadequate.
Sadly, we got used to this. But we need to continue to call out Trump's sexist language - it's unacceptable.

Nigel Farage has spent £1m taking out adverts in the papers to distract from the Nathan Gill Russian bribe scandal.
We can't let him buy himself out of this. We need an investigation into Russian influence in our politics.

It amuses me how YouTube videos keep insisting that Cillian Murphy “is ACTUALLY funny” (I quote) because of course, he doesn’t ever seem to be. Well, he may be funny for his family & friends, but heck, why should he perform for clips on YouTube? He ain’t a ‘stand up’. Your pathetic efforts fall flat

Think about all the evil assholes in this administration.
They *all* expect to die of old age, obscenely wealthy, surrounded by family, because that is how the US has allowed *every single previous evil asshole* to live after doing their atrocities.

The FBI spent a million dollars redacting powerful men's names from the Epstein files. The victims? Twenty-eight names in one document alone unredacted, exposed, hunted down by reporters in front of their children. Privacy, it seems, is reserved for those who can afford to return the favor.

A ‘pause’ by its very nature is not ‘permanent’. The man is a fool.
Trump attacked immigrants living in the U.S., claiming without evidence that most of them were from “failed nations” or from “prisons, mental institutions, gangs, or drug cartels.”
