Political Thread in memory of David Reid. (R.I.P.)

Another storm in a teacup, as activist judges (Chief Judge Matthew Brann was a Barack Obama appointee, what more do you need to know) have another pop at the Donald on a technicality. In the grand scheme of thing over there it's completely meaningless and she's now been installed as Senior Advisor to Pam Bondi, the US Attorney General.

Meanwhile in other news, the investigation into the $8 billion dollar Somali fraud scheme in Minnesota, involving Democrat Governor Tim Walz and Democrat Congresswoman Ilhan Omar continues. The scale of the corruption is mind-boggling, but my good friend BT seems somehow unaware of it.

Or at least he doesn't want to talk about it.

I simply do not care mon ami. The whole shebang is a pfhucking shambles.

If you're going to care enough about something to post about it mon ami, then I'd say the US taxpayer being defrauded of $8 Billion dollars, a lot of which has found it's way into the coffers of Somali Terrorists Al Shabaab, is of slightly more interest and relevance than who is, or is not, acting Attorney General for the district of New Jersey.

But not apparently in LeftyLand, where TDS afflicted halfwits run around in circles, clucking and squawking about next to nowt.

There are so many issues to target mon ami, an alleged fraud by a US Senate member is simply par for the course and for me it's really not worth bothering about. Trump and Putin carving up Ukraine and the Orange man child and Netanyahu carving up Gaza is on the other hand...

The chinless wonder has now gone on TikTok in the desperate hope of finding some people who don’t think him an utter W⚓️. He might find some interest in China.

I knew as well mon ami, I said 20 years ago you couldn't expect that lot to run a chip shop. As usual, I was right. In fact they're such a set of numpties they're going to ship Tony Blair in to run it for them. Say no more.

Saw a US news report that Blair is not going to get his ego brushed

I have relatives living in the USA but my interest in what is going on there is very much centred on family matters and welfare. As for politics in the States I leave that for the citizens there to decide. I am much more concerned with what is going on in my hometown of Radcliffe, in Bolton and Manchester and the rest of the now disunited kingdom. People have had enough of failure by successive Governments and are demanding real change. They are not far right, they are not Nazis and they are sick and tired of being labelled as such. They are watching the breakup of communities all in the name of some multicultural diverse Utopia which is in fact becoming a nightmare.This didn?t happen overnight but has gone on unchecked for too long. Starmer and his Labour Government just want to take this to the next level. End jury trials, bring in digital id, curtail free speech and legitimate protest. target pensioners and farming communities, open borders, sack people from their jobs who have opposing political views and call them an unhealthy influence on children. The danger of course is our political system will deliver something too extreme in response to the years of neglect and contempt for what once was referred to as ?the man on the Clapham omnibus?.

I totally agree with you Sir Outwood. I can sadly only envisage Farage and Reform UK will exaggerate the problem rather than alleviate it.

The crazy son of a bitch man-child now insists that visitors to the US, from countries including Britain, will be required to provide their social media history from the past five years.

This will be “mandatory” for tourists and other arrivals, even if they have a visa, and will be part of the application for an Esta (Electronic System for Travel Authorisation), according to the notice published on Tuesday by Customs and Border Protection.
Trump’s State Department also sent out a memo last week to staff telling them to check visa applicants for anyone who has been involved in “fact-checking” or activities including content moderation and online safety.

Have you been engaging in anti-American activities mon ami, if not you'll be fine, if you have then they're quite right not to let you in.
