In the US, this wouldn't even make the news. It's comforting that England still has a very conservative approach to gun use both by the public and the armed police.

It makes me hope for better here, because this country is a disaster.

It was. And the emphasis on the work of Maria Corina Machado in fighting against democratic destruction in Venezuela was a bit of a clarion call to us and other countries fighting authoritarian regimes.

In questions after the presentation, the second question mentioned Trump by name and asked the presenter about the pressure he tried to put on the committee. He gets mentioned because he's made a complete fool of himself on the world stage.

So, what are the 200 US troops on their way there going to be doing now? Landscaping?

This is not good news.

It's "chute," but I much prefer the visuals of shoot. 🤣

I do too. They certainly didn't enlist in the NG to do this. They are being forced to be pawns in this mess.

Of course he did. Just in time for the Nobel Prize announcement.

Predictable.

Also, improbable.

Why are you shilling for Amazon?

He's considering going to the Middle East to claim he's ended the war, just in time for the deadline for being awarded the Nobel Prize.

He thinks.

Seems like they're in good hands.

New house. New start. I think this is a great start.

They're clownishly trying to incite violence against themselves so they can point their fingers and claim that they're being attacked. It's a very old tactic.

We can't let them manipulate our legal protests into being called violent insurrection.

If you can't ignore him, mock him. Narcissists don't like to be seen as stupid. They hate being laughed at, especially if there's truth to it.

How can you be sure?

Cringe.

Crazy eyes with a gun

The look on this lunatic's face...

Sometimes you have to recognize when you're beaten. Chins up, though. Plenty of material left for you.

Apparently he's a billionaire now, so he's probably capable of paying for it himself.

Well, that's depressing.

I could be, but don't want to be, a member of the DAR. My Civil War era ancestors were far less "heritage" than their ancestors.

But this is ridiculous.

None of my ancestors are truly heritage. The indigenous peoples who were here long before my ancestors were are.

Irony = 💀

Let’s try this again it’s a new day. I’m bewildered that no one has answered.

Dear MAGA: why would Donald consider pardoning Maxwell, a sex trafficker for Epstein? Again a reminder, Biden is not president and you guys called for the release of the files repeatedly. So… why?

Always projection

He really must have been quite a problem child.

Absolutely should be a choice. I only mentioned it because I don't think a lot of people know about it and that it's even an option.

He really looks even more unwell than usual.
