And you guys wonder why the conflict with Iran is not going so well?

The Descent of Man!

Bovino's choice of attire is deliberate!

While even Canada's Conservative Leader offered praise for Carney's speech in Davos, all Trump could mutter was "Canada lives because of the United States. Remember that, Mark, the next time you make your statements". Turns out when you can't argue with the message, you just threaten the mesenger.

"...We want a piece of ice for world protection, and they won’t give it...You can say yes and we will be very appreciative. Or you can say no and we will remember..."! But, will he? "Our stock market took the first dip yesterday because of Iceland...So Iceland's already cost us a lot of money"

Violence for Trump - patriotism; violence against him - terrorism. A mob storming the Capitol - “patriots,” citizens protesting ICE - “domestic terrorists.” Pardons for sedition and medals for propagandists like Charlie Kirk, show US honor not earned by service but purchased through loyalty to him.

In China, there's a nickname for Trump that tells you how his actions are increasingly seen as a gift to Beijing. They call him Chuan Jianguo, which translates to "nation-builder" - a mocking title suggesting his foreign and domestic policies are pushing countries away from the US towards China.

And the award for the best clown act goes to...

Dear Jonas: Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America.

The latest diplomatic dispatch from trump – presumably scrawled in crayon and full of caps lock – informs Norway that he is no longer “obligated to think purely of peace.” A dummy spit of presidential proportions for being denied the prize! Norway must be dazzled! www.abc.net.au/news/2026-01...

America, you voted in a man who despises our shared planet, shreds our hopes for climate cooperation, and abandons the vulnerable. Your choice is a global disgrace, a selfish spit in the face of every nation that believed in common good. The world's fury is justified. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-01...

While the US embraces White South Africans Australia sends them back to their own country: Neo-Nazi Matthew Gruter leaves Australia after visa revoked by minister! www.abc.net.au/news/2025-12...

An example for all the other douchebags: www.abc.net.au/news/2025-11...

Always the abuser! Advocating the death penalty for political opponents is the raving of a wannabe dictator. This vile rhetoric, accusing others of sedition while actively undermining democracy, reveals a dangerous megalomaniac who must never hold power again. A chilling new low.

Finally, after a record-breaking government shutdown and years of inexplicable delays, the House has heroically voted to start the process of maybe looking at documents. The wheels of justice grind so slowly, one might think they were designed to stall. Not to the Senate for further deliberation!

Ah, the "let them eat cake" strategy, but with more bureaucracy. So the plan is to fix a tariff-fueled crisis by... selectively un-tariffing? A masterclass in creating a problem, then heroically solving 5% of it.

Trump the genius has worked out that the record US government shutdown is likely behind several poor election results for his Republican Party this week. He also mused that one of the reasons his party's candidates performed poorly was because "I wasn't on the ballot". A genius AND a Prima Donna!

Should Mamdani win and the predicted mass exodus occur, New Yorkers can at least console themselves with one undeniable benefit: the city's collective intelligence and sense of civic decorum would skyrocket overnight

How ironic: a man whose family tree is built by immigrants now demonizes them. He erects walls, not in defense of the US, but as a monument to his own hypocrisy. His goal isn't border security; it's scapegoating, fueling a narrative of 'us vs. them' to distract from his own failure and insecurity.

Calling Superman! Trump operates not with truth, but with disinformation; not for justice, but for personal power; not for the American Way, but for a divisive, zero-sum vision. The antithesis of Superman (Truth, Justice, and the American Way)! A figure who shatters ideals he was sworn to uphold.

In a move that has shocked no one, Trump has requested that all ICE agents get into the true Halloween spirit this weekend. He's insisting the official uniform is both a timeless classic and a more "honest" representation of their duties. Some traditions, it seems, are just too foundational to hide.

Musk launches a rival to Wikipedia, "Grokipedia." Given its content is AI-generated and tailored to his specific grievances, it will be a factory for manufactured, right-wing disinformation. Not an encyclopedia; but an automaton for alternative facts. It's just Conservapedia's silicon sibling.

Hegseth orders USS Gerald R. Ford and its strike group to deploy to the U.S. Southern Command region to bolster U.S. capacity to detect, monitor, and disrupt illicit actors and activities that compromise the safety and prosperity of the United States. Yeah, sure - Republican gunboat deplomacy!

Thailand’s former queen Sirikit has died at the age of 93! www.nytimes.com/2025/10/24/w...

So Hegseth says "Beijing is concretely and credibly preparing to use military force to alter the balance of power in Indo-Pacific". While Trump says "the US is the strongest military power in the world by far, China's not even close...I don't see anything happening". Let's hope Trump's right!

A divided federal appeals court agreed that Trump could send National Guard troops to Portland to quell protests. Judges Ryan Nelson and Bridget Bade, who were both appointed by Trump, said he acted within "a range of honest judgment." Honesty?

Trump and Putin are no longer meeting in Budapest, casting doubt over Trump's latest attempt to secure a ceasefire and stop Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Seems Putin rejected calls for immediate ceasefire, refusing to entertain concessions as part of a peace deal. Time to mention Tomahawks again!

"... They're not representative of this country..." Says the man whose own rally crowds chant for the imprisonment of his opponents. The only thing "not representative" is your grotesque hypocrisy. You and your allies have mainstreamed hatred, then feign ignorance when it walks our streets.

I think I have writers cramp from pressing the Like button on all the contributions from the No Kings day in the US and other parts of the world. A tremendous effort from all of you - to done!

In case you didn't already know, there is only one king (and no pretenders)!

Well, it didn't take long for the Portland Frog to gain the recognition he / it deserves! Trump is not going to be happy, but what does he expect when he says he's going to drain the swamp.

Julius Ceaser by William Shakespeare, Act 3, Scene 1, line 273 - "Cry 'Havoc!', and let slip the frogs of war."

While some in the US look at Trump with majestic reverence and awe, the rest of us look at him and only see a clown.

As a result of the confrontation in Portland, ICE has a new logo!

No Nobel Peace Prize for Donald! So sad, too bad.

There are 338 candidates nominated for the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize. 244 are individuals and 94 are organizations! The selection panel is made up of the following members: Jørgen Watne Frydnes; Asle Toje; Anne Enger; Kristin Clement; and Gry Larsen. Good luck to the other 337 nominated candidates!

After a decade-long suspension, direct flights between Thailand and the US are set to resume on 25th October. United Airlines has announced daily flights between BKK and LAX, with the airline positioning itself as the first to offer this direct connection since 2015.

You can't have a president on a coin if they are alive... I hope they mint that coin soon.

According to Hegseth, there is to be “...No more politically correct and overbearing rules of engagement, just common sense, maximum lethality and authority of warfighters...”. I suggest he research the actions of Hugh Clowers Thompson Jr in Vietnam on on March 16, 1968!

That about sizes it up!

What would George Orwell think of Trump and his fellow pigs?

Trump says he will send troops to Portland, Oregon, "authorising full force, if necessary" to protect federal immigration facilities from "domestic terrorists". He lit the fire in the first place. Now he wants to add more fuel - simply pathetic!

"...London mayor calls Trump racist, sexist and Islamophobic, hitting back at US president's 'sharia law' comments..." If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck!

"A complaint is not a public forum for vituperation & invective — not a protected platform to rage against an adversary" said US District Judge Steven Merryday's to Trump's NY Times lawsuit (an 85-page complaint attacking critics, with statements lauding his successes and "singular brilliance")!

If you're able to read this via the internet, just think how low Trump must be to target the Digital Equity Act. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-05...

The exodus of Afrikaners from South Africa to the US (after being granted refugee status by the Trump administration) is sure to raise the average IQ of both countries!
