Can someone explain to me why the "anti-war president" named the Department of Defence as the Department of War and his incompetent crony Pete Hegseth became the Secretary of War? And why Ukraine and Russia and Israel and Hamas are still fighting? You've been scammed.
I would have tried to explain how dumb scammy dump is, but I'm very afraid your spambot would object to the words I might use.

Trumps peace plan is underpinned by two truths we sensible people support and which the pro-Palestinian Hamas crowd never acknowledge as necessary for peace to reign

1. Release the Hostages
2. Disarm Hamas and they play no further role in Govt

This is exactly the same as the Israeli conditions for peace and the fulfilment of their war objectives
For the millionth time, I am not an Hamas supporter. Also my Christian faith makes me a lover of Israel (but an objective one). This fact renders every other thing you wrote a non issue with me.

My argument all along is that whatever plan Israel has to get to Hamas should not include wiping out the whole people especially children and women, and taking over the Palestinians' land. This to me is not impossible to achieve for Israel.

But if you have problem separating Hamas from the whole Nation and believe it is a war between Israel and Palestine like others here, then we have nothing to discuss as we will never come to an agreement.

Right.
There’s no way to fully explain the ridiculousness of what’s going on without the spambot getting in the way.

Sure, climate doesn't travel beyond state lines so this approach is logically sound. And I assume Republican voters in these states are perfectly happy with taking one for the team. Right?

Most of those blue states pay a surplus into the federal system. If Trump wants to take unnecessary risks like this, maybe blue states should adopt a "States First" approach and that should apply unilaterally from a legal perspective. Kind of a dangerous game he’s playing considering a lot of those states essentially fund the united states economy.

I proposed that all blue states should cease paying federal taxes and instead allocate those funds to a special state fund to support state operations.
pretty soon states will get there..

Trump would drive everybody mad and every politician would turn into him and push for outrageous policies for self protection..

The Dems are still hoping on the courts to do the right thing with the unhinged president.

But if all fails then maybe the Dem states would have to act in uncommon ways to tame the emperor.

After claiming he knew nothing about project 2025 and his followers bending themselves out of shape to deny he had anything to do with project 2025, they’re now publicly admitting it.

ofcourse smart folks knew he knew about project 2025...

Only his blind supporters claimed Kamala was lying during her campaign, and just forcing a propaganda..everyday Trump continues to show his fan base how much of a lieing dictator he is, but they keep defending him.

No be juju be that??

grin grin

The Dem states should implement their contingency plans to mitigate the idio-cy of Trump and his racis-tt associates, whilst red states can continue to gulp the pile of non--*sense Trump presents to them until they cant no more.

Farmers are already crying..

Why is Hegseth incompetent ?

Wars are not light switches that people can switch on and off at will, that is why reasonable people avoid wars at all cost

Israel and Hamas are approaching a ceasefire as we speak

Crazy that people think Hitler just magically appeared and started doing death camps. He got elected in. He didn't just take over, he won the election and it was actually pretty close. Then started slowly going after political parties that weren't his own while blaming everything bad on "the communists" and chipping away slowly at civil liberties for those groups he disliked.

His plan was specifically for deportations until they started losing the war. Most regular citizens didn't even know about the camps because they were deporting most people to other countries.

Please watch some documentaries on what life in the early years was like because then you will understand the parallels historians have been making.

And it is going to get a lot worse before it gets better.

So we can all agree that those who assert that Netanyahu has committed genocide in Gaza are not out of place for making those observations and conclusions.?

While you support mass killings of innocent women and children, other person's cant..

The prayer is that none of such should happen to ones family members.

Can we also agree with those who claim Putin is doing a good thing or agree with those who said Osama was doing a good thing as not out of place for making the observation and conclusions?

You are here supporting Hamas that killed thousands of innocent men women and children and giving every excuse to defend Hamas

What Do you think those caught in Hamas terrorist acts should do

Grokipidea to be launched in two weeks.

Elon Musk

@elonmusk
Version 0.1 early beta of Grokipedia will be published in 2 weeks
Quote
X Freeze
@amXFreeze

19h
Grokipedia is going to be the world's biggest, most accurate knowledge source, for humans and AI with no limits on use
Currently, Grok is using massive amounts of inference compute to look at, sources like Wikipedia page and asking: What’s true, partially true, false, or missing?

Then it rewrites those pages, removing falsehoods, correcting half-truths, and adding crucial & missing context

the reason why it will be the true knowledge source is because it's built solely for the truth and to navigate to the truth... free from bias or hidden agendas

Elon never does anything by half measures, he dives straight to the full extent...

Something that'll strike like a sharp spear just like the community Notes on 𝕏, which even called out the WHO for shoving false info down our throats with the tag carrying "We are always right"

with Grok, Grokipedia aims for maximum truth through first principles and physics. It replaces partially masked evidences of how legacy media operates, rewriting with complete accurate context that cuts through the BS

this will combat the evil organizations and the evil minds that operating under the hood and who've poisoned minds for decades with endless fake news and distorted narratives through legacy media and Wikipedia, causing immense harm to young minds and manipulated the world long enough

This will change for good...... Grokipedia will change it

Guys,
This is baffling o!

They are totally corrupt. That article Basically has done justice .
By the way Comey made a big mistake. His Senate testimony was done remotely obeying COVID19 social distancing from his home in Virginia.Which became the scene where the offence was committed and the jury there is not 93% democrat as in DC. Had he appeared in person in DC he would have been charged there.

If blue states are poor like the red states, Trump would have long discarded them like trash with their contributions, and daily remind the rest of Americans how blue states have been the parasite...Fortunately it's not so.

Right wing parties have made gains in global politics to the chagrin of the globalists. The media is not happy.


Czech Republic: Populist ANO, led by Andrej Babiš, won the October 2025 parliamentary election with ~36%, forming a minority government with far-right allies.
Poland: Conservative nationalist Karol Nawrocki won the June 2025 presidential election, backed by the right-wing Law and Justice party.
Germany: Center-right CDU under Friedrich Merz won the February 2025 federal election, with far-right AfD surging to second place.
United Kingdom: Right-wing Reform UK gained significant ground in local elections and a May 2025 parliamentary by-election.
Japan: Ultra-conservative Sanae Takaichi secured the LDP leadership in October 2025, poised to become PM.

nope..that isnt tantamount to supporting the heinous act carries out on the isrealis on Oct 7, 2023.

As reasonable people condemned the attack by Hamas back then, same reasonable folks are saying what Isreal is doing presently, having killed over 50k innocent women and children is ENOUGH.

No one supported Hamas. We are saying stop the killing. Enough is enough. There is a time for everything.. isreal had settled the score long ago..whatever killings they are executing right now doesnt make any sense anymore..

It's Reverse psychology and effective in maintaining peace and security. It's also signal strength to the rest of the world, china would have to think twice before they try to invade Taiwan. Hamas already is bowing to pressure from Trump, Russia-ukraine will be next, practically it's working.

They swore on their grandmothers graves that this wasn’t the plan. We were fear mongers and liars.

Phew. Being right about all of this has me feeling terrible. I was hoping I’d be wrong and have to be thankful that the worst predictions wouldn’t come true. Turns out it’s far worse than anything we were even worried about.

Democrats...liberals, socialists and progressives...love Sweden. Sweden didn't even colonize any 3rd World country or participate in the Slave Trade, it's an innocent country.

Anyone taken a look at Sweden lately?

I always saw some similarity between the Nigerian elections of 2015 and the USA elections of 2024. The ideological choices available to the people were exactly the same. While a firm decision has been made and accepted by all including the losers in Nigeria, it seems it's still unsettled in the USA. So maybe the mid term elections will tell us what a majority of the American people want. With Congress as closely divided as it is, surely the results will be a good measure of the popular will.

I've been watching the mother country as well. I'm still keeping this for 2029 or whenever their elections come up:

RodgersAkpafu:
Reform UK can NEVER lead this country
Mark it down
The country is now too liberal to vote such people
it's even more difficult because for reform to win, they need to win majority of the seats across the country
Scotland will play spoiler here
and the red and blue walls will hold

Treat people as equals and stop dehumanising them
That's much easier than forcing urself as a superior

So according to you, because their countries of origin are not developed, they don't deserve the right to be treated like humans?
That's what you are saying ?

It's like saying because some relatives of yours are not as rich as you are, they should be treated "less than" and those relatives should accept such treatment
Reminds me of......
