Do you not think this now justifies Putin’s attack of Ukraine and will justify Xi to now attack Taiwan?

Asking for the people asking.

No oil in Cuba plus they will be a hard nut to crack

I applaud your actions. I avoid Russian and Israeli goods and services but dumping the USA is tricky when they own nearly all the tech platforms and media outlets like Bluesky, Google and Outlook. I have binned Twitter but that was crap anyway once Musk got a grip on it

Some of the people standing behind Trump at his press briefing looked very sheepish. Probably because they are young enough for earthly justice to hunt them down. I suspect Trump will face a higher court before terrestrial justice catches up with him which is a shame.

What will our current PM do - issue meaningless platitudes with no follow up
This is a gross abuse of international law and not to object in the strongest terms robs us of any right to criticise Putin
Whatever Maduro is or has done Trump has no right to kidnap him or take control of his country

There is going to be a lot of trials at the Hague

I fear you are right unfortunately

I loved working on the design of trains for the London Underground - the tube is the largest and greatest art installation of all time. I am just glad I don't actually ever have to use it😃

Shame he couldn't stop them burning to death

I want him alive long enough to be bankrupt and in prison

Zelensky can afford to agree to various unpalatable things knowing that whatever he does the Russians will always find a way to avoid peace. He will never have to deliver but can keep Trump onside

That's a great point, let's have her back but kick out the real shit. I bet he would be screaming to the European Court as fast as Musk could write a lawyer's cheque.
In reality we should have her back but unfortunately we cannot deport the milkshake hero as much as I would love to see him gone

Happy New Year and thanks for your efforts for bringing enlightenment into the darkness

I hope you are right but I wonder if the power brokers will relinquish power, so will they keep Vance as a puppet? A lot of powerful people have a hell of a lot to lose if Trump falls. The norms don't seem to apply anymore

The Nazis Care Bear will be worse unfortunately

I hope you are right and they both end up in a prison cell at the Hague

Is he leaving as he promised he would or was that another lie
