You should fly this flag instead:

Since the Dow is under 50,000, can we talk about the Epstein files again?

The US could flatten Spain quite easily. Spain is in NATO, and Europe would respond. The US has no land in Europe. US bases would be overrun and captured. US aircraft carriers would be sunk, perhaps at great cost, but sunk anyway.

It would be a catastrophic mistake.

The whole world, except Russia, is damaged by Trump's Presidency. Americans are responsible for this, collectively. They played "FA" and have a decade of "FO" still to come because some things take time to realise. For example, Boeing exports to Spain are about to take a major hit.

I believe in American Exceptionalism.

Wherever there is an agreed international standard, the US approach is the exception.

Metric vs Imperial,
IPCC,
Law of the Sea,
Rights of the Child,
World Health Organisation,
International Criminal Court, and
International Court of Justice.

Scores of others!

There is normally competition to be candidates in local elections.

Pete Hegseth's game is slipping. I thought he'd normally try to kill the people clinging to life-rafts. I doubt he's discovered mercy, so what is it?

US submarine sinks Iranian warship as Pentagon says it will strike 'deeper into Iran' Sri Lankan authorities say 80 bodies have so far been found after the Iris Dena went down. Meanwhile, Israel says Iran has launched a fresh batch of missiles.

Life Pro Tip:

When you attack another country, sometimes they fight back. Sometimes they don't even stop when you want them to.

Shocking isn't it?

This still has a while to go.

Trump saying Keir Starmer isn’t Winston Churchill sounds like he was proudly sharing a question he answered correctly in one of his cognitive tests

What's next? Bombing another country? Trumped-up charges against Democrats in SCOTUS and Congress? Banning critical YouTubers as a threat to National Security? How about an anti-defamation law? Or order Seal Team 6 to take out his enemies with his new-found absolute immunity?

Thank you for introducing me to "plenary adoption". I don't think it's a thing here in the UK. I can understand why some would like it, but ultimately it is a lie and I hate lies.

I guess DNA testing will reveal a lot.

Because they are American.

What else do you need to know?

Windows 12 Reportedly Set for Release This Year as a Fully Modular, Subscription-Based, AI-Focused OS Reports suggest that Microsoft may be gearing up to launch Windows 12 this year, which will be a modular and AI-focused OS.

Microsoft, delivering a version of Windows they want to sell us, whether we like it or not.

Linux is still free.

It would be quite nice if the Government remembered that the UK included a lot of land and people more than 100km from Central London.

Trump is obviously a terrible President.

He is kept in power by cowards.

Forgiven. Just don't do it again, okay? ;-)

Labour MP Joani Reid asks for privacy after husband’s arrest on suspicion of spying for China – UK politics live Lawmaker says she had never seen anything to suspect her husband may have broken the law

I am pleased we did not attack Iran. There was no legal basis to do so, and I am a fan of things being legal.

More corruption. Who knew? Oh yeah, everyone with a brain. Trump & his senior team are corrupt.

I can tell you aren't American-
a. You knew my facts were wrong, and
b. You understood I was joking.

Success!

I am a Brit in the UK, not an American in CONUS.

Do you want proof? I can name over 5 other countries!

Africa, Paris, Greenland and Tasmania. See! ;-)

I think we actually agree on a lot of things. We both hate paedophilia and fascism.

We differ in that you seem willing to kill a billion people in your drive to destroy fascism, but seem unable to see that the mass murder of classes of people you dislike is fascism and genocide.

Illegal orders. Why are servicemen carrying them out?

I accept your criticism! Trump is not a strategist.

More Americans die, right?

I am sure Trump has a plan. He's a 5D chess player you know. He only eats crayons so he can own the libs.

/s

What if Iran doesn't want to stop fighting this time? What is Trump planning to do if Iran keeps going? Bomb them? Kill their leaders? He's already doing that, and it's not enough.

40% of energy used in "buildings"? Do you have a source for that please?

I am disappointed that the folk who want to wipe out all fascists can't see that this is, in its own right, fascist behaviour. They have decided that they know what is right and wrong better than everyone else, and want to kill all opposition.

They are fascists, just different to the other fascists

You seem very sure of what I believe. I think that Islam is a terrible religion, that Muhammad was a terrible guy, but I can't go so far as to say I support killing them all off.

I guess that makes me worthy of death in your view.

That's the paradox of tolerance again, in a different guise.

You've decided that people who disagree with you need to die, making you a fascist, but you do so because you hate fascism.
