Factoid: Captain Cook named Cape Foulweather in Oregon on March 7, 1778, after a stormy encounter with the coastline. The name was given due to the intense, foul weather he and his crew experienced while trying to find a Northwest Passage.

At the end of the day, when he is dead or behind bars, and MAGA has lost interest, can we just liquidate all of his assets to pay back, at least part, what he has ripped off the American public? Seems fair to me. What say you?

Seems like there is more than enough on Bondi to have her disbarred. Guess that is too much to hope for. Requires some spine and appears that a lot of invertebrates are on those committees with the power to do so.

Lying while keeping a straight face is a prerequisite for being in Trump's orbit. Always has been, always will be. The truth would bury them.

Should be interesting... Russia has a long-standing history of backing Venezuela, providing extensive military, economic, and diplomatic support. This backing is motivated by geopolitical interests, a desire to counter U.S. influence in the region.

Just another self-serving piece of trash that should be moved to the dumpster. He says that only because the handwriting is on the wall and like a good rat, is preparing to jump ship.

Might be bigger than he had planned if he starts bombing Venezuela. Russia has long backed Venezuela, providing military, economic, and political support, and considers it its closest ally in the Americas. Or maybe that is his plan. He is batshit crazy you know.

That definitely would make my day, assuming the witness has not been "Epsteined" yet.

"We pay the people" sounds an awful lot like "in lieu of people sending insurance companies premiums, we collect the money from the people and pay them back some fraction of it after we skim off the top". The thought process of a demented conman looking out for himself first, last and always.

A bit scary opening up a camera but thanks to some YouTube vids, piece of cake. Glad you had no issues with your camera.

Nice bit of kit. Sounds like you have had no problems with the 2600mm. My 2600mc had problems right out of the box. Imbalanced fan so bad it resulted in star trails. All fixed now but what a pain! Lucky you! Clear skies!

Keep the people busy trying to survive is a good way to move their attention away from what he is doing to this country. That's their plan.

This trillionaire asshole needs to be sworn in under oath to testify that the 2024 election was thrown with his help and the Trump #2 "presidency" is illegitimate... with the penalty of having to spend his remaining years living in a cyber truck.

You expect too much if you expect them to connect the dots. Had they been capable of that, we would not be where we are now.

Truth. And I suspect that if one dug a bit deeper, you might find some entertaining skeletons in the closet. He just exudes that vibe.
