The protest was peaceful; the violence was extreme & without any legal justification. That was assault. These brutal Nazi jackboots must be called to account.

You may not have a British accent but you don't have any sanity either & the whopper in your hand is considerably smaller than the one in your speech.

N0-body with an ounce of reality contact could called Biden a tyrant, just as no-body sane & in touch with reality could call Trump anything else.

& of course, justify Putin's spilling of all that blood & guts so he can start again later to snap up the rest. Putin is like Peter Pan's crocodile: having tasted a human limb, he will keep coming until he has eaten the rest. Tump is really too far gone to see it.

Besides its a ridiculous excuse. Jesus wasn't MAGA & would have forgiven them as sinners & tried to convert them to Christianity.

The oligarchs don't want to provide for all. They follow the hierarchical traits of our earliest ancestors. Like dominant apes, taking all the bananas & keeping most of them, while distributing a few to their trusted favourites. We need to follow other homo traits: compassion & community to survive.

Again, taking men , women &children indiscriminately, without disclosing the basis of their belief that they were connected to Tren de Aragua. Needs to be disbanded.

Trump gathering collation of dictators-sort of an authoritarian League of Nations. Nothing against Hamas, ruthless authoritarian regime in own right. But supports Israel, who has the prior claim. Entirely transactional. If got the greater benefit from Hamas, would be backing them against Israel.

To my previous posts ,I should say alleged sexual abuse of a young women, because the case has not actually been proved in court, the case having settled. But his & his ex-wife's association with Epstein which gave rise to the allegations, render him unfit for royal privilege.

3/Only the selfish demands of a merciless rake, careless of the young life he was helping to destroy. An enduring stain on the Royal family ,he points a finger to the immense network of sheer corruption, still largely unpunished, that the Epstein scandal represents.

2/He was prepared to have sex with a young woman, thrown at him by Epstein, without asking if he was legal, willing or whether she was trafficked. An English Noble, he showed no nobility or goodness of heart or spirit. (cont)

1/The shadow of Epstein hovers over this man. In his arrogance & entitlement, his sexual abuse of a 17 year old girl, illegal in US ,raises real questions as to his moral compass & further, what he knew of Epstein's worst excesses, with girls very much younger. (cont)

Well, triumph for Netanyahu. Designed to get the hostages back & give him a coup to support him in next elections. Trump just wanted credit & his Nobel. May yet fall apart: Hamas requirements pretty far fetched & it is hard to see them surrendering weapons & dissolving. So hold the bubbly.

Maybe black people reach maturity at a respectable age, whereas some far-right folk suffer the lack of it into old age.

Trump hasn't ended war in Gaza. He helped create a ceasefire & an exchange of hostages with a roadmap to future cessation of hostilities. But terms of that map are so pro-Israel & so harmful to Hamas that it is likely to fall apart. Let's wait &see before applying the judgement of history.

So in retribution, the Trump Administration gets fat on the public purse & tries to kill a large part of America.

Well, so far we have had a Duke of Hazard.

The strategy seems to have them say what you want to say, without getting the backlash because they aren't really old enough to have to accept responsibility for saying it.

This is just racial terrorism. It is what happens when you wage a war on people of colour: boundaries get fuzzy: emboldened racist enforcement officers extend the war to all people of colour, & stop looking for legal justifications to harass.

It can't be anything else. Heterosexual coups can get married but gay couples cannot? It is clearly discrimination: the only question is whether there is ever a social justification for discrimination. If there ever is one, we have not found it & this is not it.

Said all this during the elections & were told we were grossly exaggerating. But it is clear now that we were not. The parallels to Hitler are too striking.

You can tell a regime by its priorities.
