Hey, just want to mumble that this is wildly illegal and inappropriate and would prompt impeachment proceedings if we still had a functional Congress instead of one run by a blind, deaf and mute Renfeld wannabe.

I don't think the rule of law is a big thing anymore over there. So the military is now a bunch of hired mercenaries, so what. 🙄

New Report Identifies Trump 'Friend' Who Gave $130 Million For Military Pay President Donald Trump previously described the donor as a "friend of mine" and a "patriot."

A private citizen paying soldiers. There must be a word for that, but what do I know. English is my 3rd or 4th language.

I'm hoping for engine trouble, and drones at the airport in Budapest. An emergency landing in a normal country.

They never ratified. Had they done that, the meeting would not be held in Hungary.

Praise.

Like the US and other shithole countries, Hungary is, unfortunately, not a member of the ICC.

Another meeting between two authoritarians. I'm so optimistic.

Americans must really be proud today, having this ball of dementia-flavored jello representing them.

Who do Canadians regard as an “enemy”? This comes from a new Angus Reid report on India, but get a look at the redder end of that list

Neophyte - I learned a new word.

Subtitles, for the love of God.

Trudeau finally dumped her? Can't blame him.

Genau.

If they ever get around to infrastructure week, the event should definitely be memorialized.

Sadly, there's a govt shutdown. And this 'person' has a helium addiction.

Celebrating what triumph?

The 2025 Nobel Peace Prize Silver medal goes to...

One hand washes the other.

Your first sentence doesn't need to be true if the second sentence is true. I believe that is the case. They're playing government and don't care about legalities. Authoritarians tend to be like that.

When you can't answer a simple civics question, and your only lifeline is Noem, that might be a sign you're in waaay over your head.

They look related. And fancy sexual abuse. I predict a pardon and a cushy diplomat post in his future.

You really have to treat half the American people (or more) as a historical dead end. They are not redeemable. The only hope is for their children and grandchildren to ask why and reflect.

The last sentence 👌. The nazi regime was fine for regular Germans until it wasn't. The horrors the nazis started with were accepted, so long as it was still possible for them to go to a restaurant or pub. It's part of the plan. When things suck for regular Americans, it'll be too late.
