  1. How come DOGE isn't fixing this? Cheers! https://www.cnn.com/2026/03/18/us/us-postal-service-financial-crisis-hnk
  2. Trump's latest Hormuz News debacle: India food stall vendors cutting back on samosas and chai! No spiced tea...no fluffy potato filling bundle of joy. This is a disaster! Modi will be pissed. Sell your Fairfax India stock...Indian market will collapse! https://www.cnn.com/2026/03/18/india/india-lpg-gas-impacts-restaurants-cooking-intl-hnk Cheers!
  3. You know, when I saw that video, what immediately popped into my mind looking at the title and what was happening...The Straight Homos...instead of the Strait of Hormuz. LOL! Wouldn't that make for one hell of a name for a band?! If it's not taken, I'm trademarking it! Cheers!
  4. No, I'm not even a social drinker...lots of alcohol at my house...but rarely gets consumed. I might have a glass of wine if I cook something nice or order something from a restaurant. A nice G&T or Mojito on nice summer days. That's about it! I enjoy cigars, but stopped that about 8 years ago. No real vices other than two cups of coffee every day. You know, for most of my young life I was like the young people...a social progressive against excess wealth and power...but as I aged, I'm still that, but more of a pragmatist. Self-interest and greed will never go away...it's actually what propels mankind forward...both good and bad! Cheers!
  5. Yes, that would have been better for everyone. I still blame this on Obama! Trump had no real interest in running for President until Obama ripped him apart with jokes in front of everyone at the 2011 Correspondent's Dinner. His little penis shriveled up in anger because the blood for the first time flowed to his brain...and that was it...that one synaptic burst telling him, "I'm going to get this black guy no matter what! He didn't go to Wharton, he didn't come from money, his wife isn't as good looking as mine, he doesn't have as good hair, he doesn't own the nicest building in New York or golf courses in Scotland! He even pays his taxes! Why is everyone laughing? Who are they laughing at? Couldn't be me! MEEEEE!" And that was it...Trump became President. A rabid pitbull chewing through everything he gets his teeth on and a comic book villain come to life! Cheers!
  6. Yup...correct. Reagan was more like sleepy Joe in the 2nd term, otherwise he would be ahead of Trump. Even Sleepy Joe was on par or better than Trump in his first year. But I think any honest person has to admit that while Trump isn't the brightest guy around, he is driven, he is doing a shitload of work for someone nearly 80, and you look at the activity (both Presidential and criminal) over the two terms so far...pretty damn impressive while disheartening! Cheers!
  7. Kids are the future! And they are usually more perceptive than adults give them credit for. Besides, you "adults" are the ones that may be fucking everything up for them one day. Distrust in science, medicine, climate change, media, the law, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, women's rights, equality rights, friends, allies, family, other nations...the adults are a divisive bunch primarily basing decisions only on self-interest and greed. What a legacy! Cheers!
  8. Pointless propaganda. One group of religious zealots versus another! Maybe the world would be better without both of them and their faith-based, God is on our side, nutjob actions! Better yet, put Bibi into a prison cell with whoever is the leader of Iran, and let them live together for the next 25 years. Cheers!
  9. I think Trump may have health problems, but as far as his brain...for his age, he's probably one of the sharpest Presidents in the last 50-60 years...as well as his stamina considering what he eats and all of the stuff he has to do every day in his position. He's a very driven person...especially if you tell him he's wrong...can't do it...or it makes him money. Think about everything he's managed to push through (for good or bad), escaped (for good or bad), won (for good or bad) and keeps somehow pushing his agenda...again, for good or bad! It's just that the thoughts in that brain are kind of fucked up! Cheers!
  10. It was all good until you quoted Tucker Carlson...why? WHY? WWWWWHHHHHHYYYYYYY?! I even left out the stuff about Kent siding with white supremists! No, you had to bring this guy into it! Cheers!
  11. Nice work if you can get it! Grift central. Cheers! https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/jared-kushner-reportedly-seeks-5b-005742323.html
  12. Head of U.S. Counterterrorism, Joe Kent, has resigned saying Israel exerted undue influence on the U.S. and indirectly pushed the U.S. into this war with Iran. He's a Trump supporter! Kent said that Iran posed no imminent threat! Cheers!
  13. That was actually funny Reds! I didn't know you had it in you. Cheers!
  14. The TDS wears off over night and after I've had my gay Brown Sugar Oat Cortado! Cheers!
  15. No, of course not permanently closed. Pain will be felt in the U.S. as well...they are not immune...especially with their lack of belief in vaccinations! Cheers!
  16. Sure. But that's how Fox News, Newsmax, etc all came into being as well. Including the powerful right wing movements through Social Media. Do you think the left is winning the media battle right now? Literally every American oligarch who kowtows to Trump now controls mainstream media. When Rupert Murdoch is the paragon of independent news...well you know the left is fucked! Cheers!
  17. Yeah sure...a big part of is his personality, behavior and like you said...TDS. He gets under people's skin...he's very good at it! But to say there is too much scrutiny...probably...but much of it is self-perpetuating and he's the one who got it started in the first place. Greg, he just bombed the shit out of Iran without any sort of approval...then he needs help to open up the Strait...of course, people are going to jump on that. It might be annoying, but it's not any different than if any other leader did the exact same thing...especially the "Leader of the Free World?!" Cheers!
  18. Kind of like when he held on to the "birther movement" or "fake elections" like an angry pitbull ripping apart a chihuahua? Who is responsible for giving him that spotlight? Cheers!
  19. Yup, he does that. Not sure it's always as intentional as you may think. Much of it is self-inflicted, much of it is calculated...hard to figure out which is which! Cheers!
  20. Some of these issues are legitimate: Is there a plan? Well, the initial attacks went well, but obviously they weren't ready for the Strait to be closed otherwise they wouldn't say shit like "we've won already in the first day!" Now they need help. Do they have enough ammunition? Were they prepared for the massive amount of cheap drones used? That's not a stupid question to ask...it's a numbers game...it's a price per bullet game. People are always concerned after Vietnam or nearly 10 years in Iraq! What is the objective...when the President keeps flipping between them?! So, yeah there is a lot of bullshit thrown his way in comedic and stupid attacks, but there are a SHITLOAD of questions that are legitimate as well, that would be asked of any leader. Cheers!
  21. You guys think the man can't handle the press and pressure?! He thrives on it. If he didn't have this scrutiny he would go nuts! Narcissism doesn't care what type of attention you get...as long as you are the center of attention. Cheers!
  22. I think this would be the most appropriate thing to do, as well as for long-term European interests going forward. Trump has made it everyone for themselves for the most part. It will be years and only with changes in administration where things may get back to normal on some level. But the barn door was opened wide and collecting all the animals on the farm won't be easy! Cheers!
  23. It was one or the other...the Gulf States know they aren't safe any more. Allegiances are fleeting when your nice way of life is at risk! Cheers!
  24. You have to admit, he's more vocal and in the spotlight than any other President in history. You don't think he puts himself out there with the decisions he makes? It's like Mike Tyson biting off Holyfield's ear...you don't think people are going to notice or say anything? Hey nice move Mike! That's not legal, but nice move! That's the shit people are watching on both sides and some find it acceptable...some find it unacceptable. Not a hard reach here. Cheers!
  25. Cannot wait! This trilogy for me is in the same category as when I first saw Star Wars IV, V, VI and then the Lord of the Rings 1, 2, 3. The first group I saw when I was 8-14...the second group when I was 32-35...and now Dune 1, 2, 3 when I was 52-57! I'm roughly the same age as Denis, so I probably shared similar experiences/influences as him growing up when it came to television and movies. I'm not sure I've been more excited for a movie in a very long time! Cheers!
