This is blatantly anti-Catholic and makes fun of Catholicism. Will ANYONE in the Catholic Church speak out against it?

A drawing from 2017, when Trump 1.0 talked about shuttering PBS and reallocating the funds to the defense budget. Not shocking at all that the somehow even shittier Trump 2.0 sees teaching kids literacy and empathy as “biased media”.

Casualties in World War II: Soviet Union: 26,600,000. United States: 407,316. And the Russians got to Berlin first. So, no, the United States did not do "more than any other Country, by far, in producing a victorious result 'on' World War II." That is just propaganda.

1. When voter turnout is low, the far right benefit, every time. 2. The results of by-elections, referenda etc are never about the issues at hand, always an expression of support or disdain for the government of the day. 3. There’s no way Farage doesn’t shit the bed in some way before 2029.

There’s no point correcting this. There’s no reason to expect this travesty of a human to be any less ignorant on history than he is on every other fathomable topic. So as a 20th Century military historian I’ll just say that those Americans who serve in both wars would be ashamed of this.

Trump said screw everyone that fought in the pacific theatre against imperial Japan. US victory in World War II happened on August 15, 1945 when Japan surrendered. Not May 8th. Also, "nobody was close to us in terms of strength, bravery, or military brilliance" what, lol ????

Before this election someone pointed out to me that the McSweeney theory (pitch right to hang onto the reform-curious, don’t worry LibDems and greens will vote tactically Labour when it matters because they hate Farage) is a lot more true of LibDems than of Greens, and well

Shocking that BBC is now referring to Reform UK as a “a mainstream party” But then it always did go out of its way to promote Farage. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Labour is handing this country on a silver platter to Reform. People do not vote Labour because they hate immigrants and want Reform-lite. They vote Labour because they want it to make a positive difference to their lives.

Donald Trump just completed his first hundred days in office with the worst stock market performance in over 50 years. The S/P was down 8%. Jobless benefits are at highest levels since 11/21 during the pandemic. This is the Trump economy.
