Funny that he hasn’t realised that 911 was a Saudi Arabian funded and executed attack and now the US is allied with them in the fight against Iran.

I can't suspend my grip on reality to that level... sorry.

It's like believing somebody with 6 bankruptcies, 34 felony convictions and multiple sexual assault allegations could make a good US President. Twice.

That's not suspension of reality, it's delusion.

They're negotiating for the best outcome for Trump and his cronies... the interests of the US are irrelevant.

Is it anti-semitic of me to ask why US foreign policy is being negotiated by Steve Witkoff, Jared Kushner and Josh Gruenbaum? Other than all being Jewish, they're 2 real estate developers and an investment advisor... none of whom have any experience of international diplomacy.

I can't watch it because a 62 year-old man could never win an F1 race... simple as that.

Trump saves Putin from economic disaster and passes the bill for his war onto US/European/Asian consumers.

Tariffs are bringing manufacturing back to America... and other self-delusions.

Funniest moment was when we were on the grid he checked inside his leathers to make sure he was wearing his pass... he said to me the bike ran so wide at the corners he'd need his pass to get back into the circuit.

I was Chris Walker's manager in 1996 when he rode the Elf 500 ROC. Rio was one of the highlights... but not for the racing.
He's happily married now so I won't go into details 🥴

Weirdly, this was being proposed as a possible solution... but they failed to notice that you'd need to run the Yemeni missile gauntlet.

But realistically, smaller vessels can come and go through the Suez Canal (which can't take fully laden supertankers).

The saddest part were the random fan-boys paying $50 a month to be in the training system that just sells them out to unscrupulous trading platforms where they have about an 87% chance of losing all their money. One young guy was homeless and living in his car but still believing their bullshit.

Worse in the sense that these guys aren't as stupid as I hoped they would be. They all seem to have a kind of feral intelligence, they know exactly what they're doing and they manipulate the social media algorithms to their own benefit... their ruthless pursuit of money without a moral compass.

In a normal country, insider trading is a crime.

The US is no longer a normal country.

The US and Israel started the war. Oil prices spiked, #Trump panicked. He said the war was done... markets relaxed and oil prices dropped 10-15%. #Hegseth said it had only just started.
#Iran blew up some oil tankers in the #StraitOfHormuz and the price of oil begins to spike again.

To be honest, if you go to Cheltenham it's more like being in Ireland, pubs open at 9:00 am serving Guinness and the place is full of Irish punters clutch the Racing Post.
I've never been to the actual races but I've been in Cheltenham and it is a hoot.
Forget the London tweed wankers...

Witkoff clearly doesn’t understand the meaning of the word OBLITERATE.

"If the shoe fits, wear it" is the standard idiom.

In MAGA's case it should read, "If the shoe doesn't fit, still wear it because that's what sycophants do".

Kevin Warsh faces an economic 'perfect storm' as he waits to take over as Fed chair Warsh faces a potential buzzsaw in the form of a Hobson's choice between fighting inflation and supporting the labor market.

#Trump installing him to cut rates... it's his ONLY job.
Rising inflation due to tariff policy and Iran war energy shock should push the fed to raise rates. Bear in mind that Trump doesn't care about jobs data, and you can see that the US is entering a world of hurt.

Zionists are demanding ‘lebensraum’… the US military are delivering it for them. Europe will end up paying the price.

The war is splintering the MAGA base and the Epstein files are also highly divisive. Trump can’t keep dodging the bullet…

MAGAts claim these photos are AI fakes... but they were apparently part of the #EpsteinFiles from his 2005 conviction in Florida.
If they are real, then they should be more than enough to take #Trump down... along with all his sewer rats.
