the city of London alone could crash the world economy in an afternoon. The UK is hardly insignificant.

what happened that they needed this bailout? Why did they need the last Trump bailout?

lemme go out on a limb and say you're an Irish Socialist. It's okay if you are; Fish is a Scottish Socialist. Socialism is much more suited to Europe than North America and I can work from that assumption.

Hardly. In the 80s, Britain had a lot more pull on the world stage than it does now. Not that it has diminished, just that the competition (for lack of a better word) has gotten bigger.

yeah and Reagan was the absolute Devil here, too. Still gets blamed for SCOTUS decisions he had nothing to do with, to this day. The media has been lying to both continents for decades.

Thatcher genuinely gave the Russians pause, which you haven't been able to do since she had the reins.

Chicago is a cold, hard place where your friends will knife you for the money in your pocket and police brutality is a competitive sport. Black cops beat black suspects and commit perjury to send them to Death Row.

Chicago doesn't care how you live or die, and that's a fact.

they'll use the money to make the seats even smaller, and then charge more to choose the best ones ahead of anyone else.

his voters are a national security threat

you stupidass, why did he have to leave CBS? So got-danged stupid that you don't know he was fired for making up wild lies about GWB.

Dumbass.

was anyone recording plate numbers? Joe Kent's buddies were absolutely a part of this.

the complete destruction of our intel assets in China some years back was entirely due to inside incompetence and it set us back decades.

Now it's not unrealistic to think this was part of a deal that further endangered US interests to make him a few bucks that he won't live long enough to spend.

injustice in the name of a deity predates even the Bronze Age. The rage this incurs in humanity in general cannot be baseless. We innately know that some sort of judgement awaits us all. Based on all cultures for the last 5000 years, it's agreed that the current admin is gonna need Nomex underwear.

we all understand the concept of Ultimate Accountability. Every religion in human history... excluding cults and modern wackiness... centers on the belief that bad people get theirs after death. Hitler didn't share the same fate as, say, CS Lewis. Our psychology despises Ultimate Injustice.

Russia still has 250,000 troops on the Finnish border.

Granted, they're all 6 feet down, but still
