The Meidas Touch gives great coverage of the Bernie Sanders & AOC's "Fighting Oligarchy Tour". Sadly, it won't make any difference. I don't think the anti-MAGA US Citizens have the balls to take down Trump by force. As for the US military? They are too chicken-shit scared to do anything.

My first post for some time. All I see is bad news from the US. Apparently, his Administration will be cutting funding to NATO. It's time for the UK Government to close down all UK-based US military bases. I wonder when the US will be applying for membership of Putin's CSTO?

Trump has fired General Charles Q Brown, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The US is now on the road where the DOD will have "political" senior officers who will be more than happy to use US military personnel to deal with Trumps enemies. Welcome to the Fascist States of America!!!

The convicted felon, sexual predator and serial liar, DJ Trump says that President Zelensky is a "Dictator who doesn't hold elections". So how different is it that the US has a Dictator in a country where they do hold elections. What a loser Trump is.

⚡️'No point trying to negotiate' with Putin, Yulia Navalnaya says. "Even if you decided to negotiate with Putin, just remember he will lie," Navalnaya, widow of late Russian dissident Alexei Navalny, said at the Munich Security Conference two days before the anniversary of her husband's death.

These are what are important to me. Trump & his MAGA followers need to be very careful in where they want this to go.....

New York Governor Kathy Hochul announced that she has rejected a request from Louisiana Governor Doug Landry to extradite a New York doctor who was previously indicted by a Louisiana grand jury on felony charges related to her prescribing abortion-related medication to a woman in Louisiana.

What an international embarrassment our government of frauds and grifters is.

The only thing this guy had going for him was his branding as a smooth communicator on TV… but dear God he is a dogshit communicator.

Just despicable and disgraceful. The US government is now indistinguishable from the mafia.

My Uncle. Sergeant Walter H, Royal Army Medical Corps, Burma Campaign WW2. Mentioned in Dispatches for an incident that took place during the Battle of Imphal 1944. He is the father of my cousins Ivan & Rosemary, who are Canadian citizens.

My Grandfather, William H, Suvla Bay, Gallipoli, 1915. He was wounded left chest and evacuated to Egypt. Died & buried in Lahore, 1924.

My Grandfather, Sergeant William H, Calcutta Scottish 1921. The Calcutta Scottish was part of the Army Auxiliary Force, India. Despite what some on BlueSky have posted, my Grandfather was not a "Colonizer or Imperialist". He was a British Soldier who served his country.

Another Uncle, Cyril B H. WW2, Burma Campaign. 151 Parachute Battalion, 50th Indian Parachute Brigade. Fought at the battle of Sangshak, March 1944. Later served with 268 Brigade. Discharged 1952.

Another Uncle, Frederick H. Served 1944-48 with 2nd Battalion Kings Own Scottish Borderers, Burma Campaign.

My "Dad", Leslie Kenneth H. Royal Air Force Nov 39-Jul 71. Photo taken in 1945 following the Burma Campaign.

My "Black Dog" has appeared again.

At the MSC, JD Vance came across as the useless piece of shit he is. He & the Trump shouldn't underestimate EU & UK resilience. As the Danish politician stated at a recent EU Parliament meeting - to President Trump: FUCK OFF. We can & will go it alone.

Are you worried about Elon Musk using the X platform to interfere in our election? I need you to contact Elections Canada to keep the pressure on. All the information you need is in my latest piece for Substack. Contact info at the bottom: substack.com/home/post/p-...

Look who loves what Elon Musk is doing to the United States? Canada's Conservatives. No surprise there. Pierre Poilievre is fundamentally unfit for public office. Especially now.

Hegseth states that European security is not a US "primary focus". If that's the case, it's time for the UK to shut down all US military bases & tell the occupants to FOXTROT OSCAR. I hope that Germany does the same with Ramstein airbase.

Trump's continual attacks on our country is helping to solidify a national resistance movement. The boycott against American products, alcohol and vacation destinations is having an effect. Stay strong. We will not break. www.youtube.com/watch?v=JH1A...

This guy…. What a D bag. Harry is awesome

A Mari Usque Ad Mare, French: D'un Océan à L'autre, English: From Sea to Sea. GO CANADA 👍

Canadians used to joke that we were a mouse beside an elephant. Then comparisons got darker - living above a meth lab. Now we understand we live next to a gangster regime. But Canadians won't bend. The resistance is coming from ordinary folk. Please read and share. open.substack.com/pub/charliea...

Trump wants to take over Gaza, remove it's citizens and turn it into a new "Middle-East Riviera". I suppose his US military 'peace-keeping' force will face much the same as it did in Iraq; death and destruction. Then again, to Trump, US military personnel are 'Suckers & Losers'.

Venezuelans in Florida and other parts of the US are unhappy and angry about Trump's deportations. I guess that for them, this is a FAFO moment. It's hard to feel sympathy for them; after all, they mostly voted for Trump. You pays your money, you takes your chances.

So, the CIA is now in line to be gutted/disbanded by Trump. Will the National Security Agency (NSA) be next? During my RAF service as an 'electronic spy', I worked closely with the NSA in the UK & Germany. Will this be the end of intelligence sharing between the UK & US?
