I thought that until I tried to watch a favourite stand-up comedian in silence. It was terrible.

The right is only pro-birth, not pro-child.

The Mar-a-Lago war room? I know Congress and the Senate are irrelevant, but this is taking the piss.

I regret to say this. I don't think the junta fronted by Cheeto Man cares about the Epstein Files. They're proud of what their patsy did. My concern is that all this is to cover something still worse.

And his believers lap it up. America, you have so many problems.

So-called leftists helped get him elected? What?

The BBC, in common with all media, wants Mr Toad as the next PM. It's obvious.

No matter what your ineffective checks and balances may opine, Cheeto Man's puppetmasters will continue to ignore them. The good people of the US need to come up with something else. It won't be pleasant.

Epstein Files - Epic Fury. Toeval?

That will require international treaties. Good luck.

Epstein Files - Epic Fury. It's a distraction.

What does it purport to show? I don't click on dodgy links.

It's a mistake to conflate Zionism with Judaism.

You keep spouting this 'obligated' stuff. But his puppetmasters are not listening, and do not care. Your checks and balances are wanting.

Those behind him are already working out how to avoid any more of those annoying elections.

Yes, but what has that got to do with the decision to attack Iran, taken by whoever is running your country? It's not Cheeto Man.

01.03.2026 15:23 β€” πŸ‘ 2    πŸ” 1    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

I do.

Starmer has little more authority than Cheeto Man. If the billionaires say go to war, 'we' will.

They should 'say'? What effect will that have? Whoever is operating the vegetable that used to be your President does not listen to Congress, the Senate, or the Supreme Court.

'He' has had no input on this. 'He' is a vegetable.

Do we know whether Cheeto Man or Mileikowski ('Netanyahu') has an operational neutron bomb? The US hawks and the Zionists are both itching to try one, in preparation for the final assault on Gaza and the West Bank.

OK kids, while WWIII is developing, this is happening too. Funny, but accurate and terrifying.

That would be me. No clue, this is maybe the third time I've even heard the word.
