Felt this was relevant seeing as our Top G is favoured to become the next PM of me homeland.

You need to put down the crack pipe; there is no way that rapist is going to be the UK's next PM.

If you actually listen to Tate's policies they are precisely what is needed. I'll try to find the best video to post.

No, I don't prefer Starmer, I think the UK labor party has lost it's damn mind. It's vote today against an inquiry was a major mistake on their part. Starmer is a POS.

If I were a UK voter, I would be in the Tory party just as I am in the Republican party here.

ETA: His espoused policies might be precisely what the UK needs, but he's not the right guy to lead the UK.

The one thing that really pisses me off as this comes to an end.

The EU decided to use the interest on the russian assets they had seized and give it to Ukraine (you will remember we paid back Iran all their money PLUS interest). It was around 50 billion they agreed to give Ukraine.

Blinken said "it was a loan secured by the US". Ukraine will never pay this back, so when this ends and Russia wants their money....we are in for another 50 billion.

We already gave them the first tranche of 20 billion in December. I have no idea what they are using it for, we cant make the weapons fast enough to buy, and we are already paying all their civil servants and retirees.

Just another huge cash payoff to who knows. What a friggin disaster for the grandchildren of America whose debt they have been saddled with.

I fully expect Trump to tell Putin to pound sand if he wants $50B from us.

A lot of y'all are nuts for thinking that the war is about to end.

Texans at the Alamo probably should have.


The Texans’ battle with Santa Ana at The Alamo is what allowed General Sam Houston the opportunity to gather up the forces to eventually fight and defeat Santa Ana at the Battle of San Jacinto.

I am very familiar with the history. You missed the point of my comment.

California has plenty of money. It’s not Ukraine’s fault Los Angeles/CA government allowed widespread urban sprawl where the fire department can’t even access with water. This is a failure of urban planning and corrupt city government not underfunding . Go back to rehab.
