USA wld do well to remember who had their back for centuries.Not least 9/11 whch brought allies nothing but more trouble for themselves.
The drug/border issue is less than 1% from 🇨🇦 to 🇺🇸.Miniscule compared to guns/drugs frm 🇺🇸 to 🇨🇦.Trump doesnt care abt drugs, he just pardoned the Silk Rd drug pusher

Another contemporary accused the Reform leader of being a “complete liar” in an interview on Tuesday afternoon. Andy Field, a GP who was two years below Farage at Dulwich, said he had directly witnessed racial abuse from the Reform leader.

Nigel Farage’s abuse was persistent, not banter, claims ex-schoolmate
Peter Ettedgui says he was targeted at Dulwich College. The Reform UK leader denies he racially abused anybody

The media seems to have missed something crucial Lavrov said yesterday.
He said any change to the 28 point plan (surrender for Ukraine) would be a betrayal to the "anchorage agreement".
So there *was* an agreement made surreptitiously between 2 evil little men.

Uk media this morning reporting on US Special Envoy Witkoff going to Russia to finalise peace deal.
The facts/truth though are:
The US Russian Agent for a Russia aligned Republican party doing a deal to reward Russia.
👇
The most telling piece of audio to explain the Russia, US, Ukraine situation.
And Bloomberg just released a leaked conversation between Witkoff & Putin negotiator where Witkoff advises on how to flatter Trump so he is receptive to Russian demands.So a Russian agent is the 'neutral' arbiter for peace
quite a Freudian slip from Fox News' John Roberts here

Our convicted felon president, who pardoned Enrique Tarrio, the leader of the Proud Boys convicted of seditious conspiracy, wants to charge Mark Kelly, a decorated war veteran and astronaut, with seditious conspiracy.

That’s some next-level banana republic shit right there.

Y’know, believing there’s a kind of racism that isn’t hurtful or insulting is itself quite revealing.

Bossy headline from The Times letting Farage insist his “Hitler was right” racism was just ‘banter’.
If that were true, his politics now would be different and he’d apologise. He’s defensive because this is what he is and always has been and he’s angry with us for knowing that and for minding.

"By next year we'll be millionaires" ~Only fools.
So best not agree to tax the wealthier.
Media full of griping public full of how an increase of tax over £2million House is so unfair.
So no tax on big houses, no tax on private Ed,no end to WFA, no end to triple lock, no taxing big business,no proportionate income tax rise.
But fix child poverty, NHS, education, water, rail, energy......

I want to apologize to the rest of the world, because electing this guy didn’t just harm us, it sent shockwaves through global democracy.

Thanks to this incompetent government, we’ve managed to export our chaos far beyond our own borders.

SEN. KELLY : “They informed me of this in a tweet because this is not about the law. This is about the media cycle, and intimidation… We basically repeated the uniform code of military justice, and they're saying that's in violation of it. It's absurd. Comical.”

As boy to man. No Reform.
Asked again and again whether he ever racially abused his fellow pupils, as 20 people at his old school have now said he did, Nigel Farage will only say that he never did so in a "hurtful way" or "with intent"

...the PM is a good man trying to sort out the mess the Tories left behind.

But he's also gone through the loss of his brother last Christmas.

It's quote something to go through that and keep on running the country.

Newmarket MP Matt Hancock gave a £37bn Covid testing contract to Jockey Club director Dido Harding, who subcontracted it to Grand National sponsor Randox, employer of Tory MP Owen Paterson, whose late wife chaired Aintree racecourse. That's how the Tories handled the pandemic.

Russia's ambassador to the UK, Yakovenko, boasted about Brexit to another diplomat:
“We have crushed the British to the ground. They are on their knees and will not rise for a very long time”
Today, Farage’s close ally, leader of Reform in Wales, was sentenced to 10yrs for taking bribes from Russia.
Brexit has caused almost twice as much damage to the UK economy than estimated by official forecasts, according to new paper from a group of experts including a senior Bank of England economist

It never stops.
The grubby donations. The profiteering. The lobbying. The lies.
“In 2019-20, as the UK was leaving the EU, Harborne gave £10m to Nigel Farage’s Brexit party, since renamed Reform UK.”
They make damn sure they get what they want.

If you receive an illegal order, you have a duty to disobey.

This isn’t controversial.

A President calling for the execution of anyone who reminds service members of this oath is showing us why the duty to disobey illegal orders is so important in the first place.
