I thought I heard a news report about the alarming speed that Trump is spreading across the USA. Then I realised they were talking about tranq. :lol:

They should name the next killer drug or virus after Trump. :lol:
Good to have you back Derek :)

Biden looks quite young when walking alongside that short guy with a walking stick. :lol:

Edit: It's the Irish president! Don't see or hear much of him on the news.

Jack Smith now looking at wire fraud when Trump accrued several hundred million dollars after 2020 election, so Jack Smith has him on J6, Mar-a-lago documents and now wire fraud, trial being a federal case gets precedence over Bragg's and so is likely to be held before the end of the year with an indictment looking likely for the end of the month/early May...the walls are closing in.

Hard to believe a man who encouraged a coup in his own country and has had to pay to silence strippers is still in the running for 2024........ strange times

Nice precis. How us moderates are willing to hope wazzocks are decent people, just misrepresented. And then you reach the end of your tether and realise they are supremely selfish and probably fledgling dictators.

A 12-year-old who was trusted with top-secret US national security information has been arrested for leaking them!

I meant someone with the mentality of a 12-year-old.

I heard a justification on the news in that 21-year-olds can fight on the battlefield but you wouldn't get a 21-year-old tasked with commanding a thousand troops. How somebody so young could be given free access to so much sensitive information is astonishing.

Ah right. I was a bit baffled how so much sensitive (possibly, lethal) information could leak out. My conspiracy module suggested it's a bit of manipulation by the NATO/Ukraine allliance. I imagine Putin's gang are running around like headless chickens trying to figure out whether the info is true and useful or false and a blindside to distract from the impending reality.
