Under the previous admin, you flourished and the world started to respect you again. Hegseth is a liar or, most likely, he's been living in an alcoholic haze so he probably doesn't remember the last 5 years.

I hear his time as Sec Defence is coming to an end. Which could explain some things.

trump meddling in other countries' business - Not going to distract from his very real problems.

I'm sure he did, a few seconds to maybe a minute. Details of his injuries isn't known. But even in a rapid death it's not truly instantaneous because not all bodily functions cease at the same time.

The press is reporting that the safari company is not giving details out of respect for the man's family's privacy and also their staff members involved etc. etc. (my source: The Guardian)

To protect the puppies!

That would be the falling out of the window in his [Miller] underwear episode. Yeah.

Turns out it not real. But with that dreadful state government, it could be.

Haha. Thank you. I was a journalist once upon a time. What drives me nuts is the absence of follow up questions. And holes in the stories they files. I guess I'm old school.

Spineless US media.

White House is considering...
Trump is set to meet...
I don't know who writes that stuff, but considering means nothing. He ambushed Zelensky the last time he came to the US. I doubt he'll come again, and trump has proven useless to him.

Still, I would have asked her, given that she also said women should stay at home and take care of the home & children and so on, what changed her mind? Otherwise what's the point of the article?

09.08.2025 22:15 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 2    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

What delusions this man has! Trump doesn't own Alaska. It's not his to give. Lisa Murkowski and, I suspect, the Alaskans, Congress, the Senate, etc etc would have something to say.

"Yeah, I don't think women should hold office in general. That's my position. That's my stance. I think women should run the home."
What the article doesn't say is why she's running for office?

That would be Congress Republicans.

trump is considering. trump is not a serious person. Zelensky (and I suspect the rest of us) are sick and tired of trump.

Israel has always pummelled Lebanon just because it's there. Fck 'em.

Exactly. It's like a very bad TV show that gets cancelled mid-first season. He likes TV "personalities". I mean, Hegseth goes from FoxTV to US Secretary of Defence??? Tipsy Jeanine Piro, also from FoxTV US Attorney for DC? And then you have the 2 unqualified guys heading the FBI.

They pronounce it Alyaska (I read Cyrillic). Tell them it's the wrong one, they can't have it ๐Ÿ˜‚

โ€œIt would be difficult,โ€ Webb wrote, โ€œto call someone genocidal when years before, after one bloody fight, he brought an orphaned Native American baby from the battlefield to his home and raised him as his son.โ€
NO, it would not. He presided over many a slaughter of Native Americans.

Kegseth is out of control (ergo the drinking) and this is one way, he thinks, he can get control. Same goes for the rest of them - they have problems so they look to control other people.
