Hooray 🙌🏻 🎉 Good Morning, Jeff! Good morning, C&C Family! God bless and keep President Trump today especially! State of the Union Day!

Proberta's avatar

Even with all the evidence of rape, torture, Human Trafficking, and sexual abuse of children, Jeffrey Epstein still got off with THE LIGHTEST SENTENCE EVER in the state of Florida for sex crimes!

And who was the corrupt State Attorney that let Epstein off, and what happened to him???

In 2017 Alexander Acosta was appointed the 27th Secretary of Labor for the United States of America!

By President Donald J. Trump.

My Favorite Things's avatar

Proberta,

One can’t expect perfection in every single situation. Trump was probably told Acosta was a good choice for the job. Trump couldn’t vet everything, so he had to trust his people. Is there a person alive that hasn’t trusted the wrong person?

Steve Stevens's avatar

Everybody blames Trump’s picks on everybody else but him. Couldn’t he google some of these people’s names and find out for himself whether they were any good or not? Or would that take away from his tweeting time?

Mary Mc's avatar

and this Googling would take place when? Between, trials, investigations, hearings, etc, etc, etc? He's supposed to be able to trust people in his own party, at the least to advise him, especially when he isn't an insider... as should all people in that position, no matter which party. Washington is a viper nest and few can be trusted.

Susan Daniels's avatar

None can be trusted—too much self-interest.

Steve Stevens's avatar

In between tweets. Googling doesn’t take that long.

Since he’s not an insider, that’s all the more reason to not trust people.

Satan's Doorknob's avatar

One would have hoped he'd have learnt that lesson by, oh, Jan. 6 2021 or so.

Aaron's avatar

Lol.Thank you for proving the cognitive dissonance of "supporting" a false prophet. Just wow, I'm a dummy and even knew Acosta's name and his malfeasance! By the way our dear leader is reportedly mentioned in these same files 38,000 times...Also we found out the great Howard Lutnick is Proven liar and also was close to Epstein after lying to everyone about his neighbor and their relationship. Doubtful any of these FACTS will wake you from your slumber...

Dolce Far Niente's avatar

And are you claiming you knew Acosta was a bad 'un in 2017, as you claim Trump should have?

Just curious, as you're so smart and all.

Mike Simmons's avatar

Were you in a coma during the Biden presidency?

If Biden is your idea of a U.S. President, you don't get an opinion about Donald J. Trump.

David A's avatar

Most of those references refer to Trump as a problem for his agenda.

Sue Kelley's avatar

Google is such a great and accurate source of information

MarshaLouise's avatar

Indeed…like MSNOW.

David A's avatar

Steve, the man is far busier with far far more on his plate then you have ever dealt with. ( Yes an assumption, I worked 3 k hours a year with large responsibilities, and it was light work compared to what Trump does every day. )

Steve Stevens's avatar

A presidential candidate should have an idea of who he’s going to fill his cabinet with even before the election. If not, from the time of election results in Nov. until Inauguration Day is a good 2 months that he can use.

A candidate who runs as an outsider and listens to an insider (Reince Priebus) for cabinet picks, and who doesn’t read the news, and who can’t be bothered to research said picks on his own, is an idiot.

Mary Mc's avatar

Candidate SHOULD be able to trust the leadership of the party... in 2015-2016, that was Mitch and Paul Ryan and others (former losing candidates, like Mitt and McCain. Former POTUS like the Bushes etc.) They have shown that they'd rather support the Leftist Ds than support their candidate that won. I suspect Romney and McCain were furious and jealous that Trump won when they couldn't.

Proberta's avatar

"...he had to trust his people"

Or MFT, Trump's best bro was the elite pimp to the Elites, and Trump had Mar-a-lago and the stable of beautiful young pageant girls, and all his Elite billionaire pedo buddies, and Epstein was pimping girls to and from Mar-A-Lago (see Virginia Guiffre vs Prince Andrew, Duke of York),

And Trump rewarded the corrupt State Attorney who let Epstein off, with a PRESIDENTIAL APPOINTMENT!

Mary Mc's avatar

Guiffre actually worked at MAL and was hired away by JE (as I have read). She was one of several reasons JE was banned from MAL.

As to 45's bad picks... he thought he could actually TRUST, the Rs in the Senate and from past administrations to HONESTLY recommend good people to him. He was very naive and IMO has learned (the hard way) that he couldn't trust any of them. In his 4 years off, he worked with his OWN TRUSTED people and has much better, sharper and more honest people in the administration.

mspring's avatar

I think you have the right view of this issue, Mary. Just thinking back there were appointments he ( and we) thought would be effective ones that turned out to be ineffective ,(Jeff Sessions, cof!). There were ones who appeared to be effective and loyal but turned out to be working against him undercover. And some who pledged loyalty right until they took positions, then flipped. I'm not sure how much was naivety, or just ignorance. Trump lived in a world with different parameters, one where performance and completion was everything (with a whole bunch of sub themes; competence, skillsets, access, loyalty, etc). What he found was much worse than what he'd heard, i expect. We all live in a world more akin to Trump's than the swamp, and I'd bet we would be just as gobsmacked as he was! It sure seems though that he went back to his former world view in selecting this current batch and strategy.

Proberta's avatar

"Guiffre actually worked at MAL and was hired away by JE"

Yes Mary, and pimped to Prince Andrew.

Epstein was pimping girls to and from Mar-a-lago.

And Trump rewarded the corrupt State Attorney who let Epstein off, with a PRESIDENTIAL APPOINTMENT.

william howard's avatar

you lefties really do live in a fantasy world

Mary Mc's avatar

It would be interesting to know what Acosta said to justify his decisions in the Epstein issue? Perhaps we might have hired him also?

Alice Ball's avatar

Hey Proberta, why don't you go peddle trash on your own wildly successful Substack? Are you lurking around here trying to get some lefties to follow you so you can make a buck?

Matt L.'s avatar

Proberta just provided facts, Alice Ball. If you are not adult enough to accept them then maybe refrain from calling them trash? That is very child like.

Alice Ball's avatar

Oh really Matt? Supply links to credible non-leftist sources. I’ll wait. You are all capital L losers. “That is very child like.” Are you a man??? Men don’t talk that way. Purple hair tats & nose rings?

Alice Ball's avatar

There's absolutely no need for me to enlighten you since 98% of C&C readers are well aware of what's true & what's trash.

annademo's avatar

It's hard to pick just one thing. There's lots to choose from. I gave you the benefit of the doubt when I responded to your first post. I see now that you are just another sad TDS case.

Mike Simmons's avatar

Proberta, Have you tried crying about it?

Concerned mom's avatar

President Trump was misinformed and mislead in many ways, with many of the suggested appointments he made his first time around...he was basically playing in an arena he was not familiar with (all the political corruption). He seems to be doing so much better now, although there's no perfect human being alive on this planet today...

c Anderson's avatar

GW Bush appointed Acosta to the National Labor Relations Board long before Trump maintained him in that position.

Proberta's avatar

Yes, and then Trump appointed him SECRETARY OF LABOR!

c Anderson's avatar

Would Trump appoint him now? Hindsight is 20-20. 🫏

Proberta's avatar

"Would Trump appoint him now?"

Well c, Acosta is obviously Deep State, and Trump appoints Deep State.

Johnny-O's avatar

I can't figure out if Trump is just a poor dupe, or a 3D chess master. Which is it?

Concerned mom's avatar

I believe that before long, we will surely find out!

Steve Stevens's avatar

Ha ha, good one!

Whichever one works to absolve him of any blame.

Johnny-O's avatar

I'm tired of all the politician bootlicking. It seems as though very few around here are aware that politicians are PUBLIC SERVANTS, not idols.

Steve Stevens's avatar

I don’t see how someone could be so in love with a politician that they would do all of these mental backflips to explain away his mistakes and write about it in a blog? Especially when said politician is doing the opposite of what he campaigned on. That is warped!

John of Oregon Fame's avatar

Johnny-O, you'll find out soon.

Johnny-O's avatar

I've been hearing this for years.

CStone's avatar

We know. You’re a McDonald’s drive-thru kind they/them.

Bobbi's avatar

Yes, he made several mistakes during his first term. I'm glad Acosta resigned.

Proberta's avatar

"I'm glad Acosta resigned"

Acosta didn't voluntarily resign, it was the public outrage that forced him to resign.

CStone's avatar

But he did resign.

Steve Stevens's avatar

Several mistakes? He’s a mistake making machine!

And he doesn’t learn from his mistakes because he keeps repeating them.

Fiat Lux's avatar

I can tolerate mistakes from a man who hasn't spent his life lying to people for political gain. Trump was never going to be a pond scum sucking politician. We knew that. So we tolerate the verbal gaffes and inappropriate remarks bcuz we know he is fulfilling every promise we asked him to.

Johnny-O's avatar

"fulfilling every promise we asked him to"

Nobody can claim that. Try being more accurate with your words. He's also doing a lot of things we didn't ask him to do - like being the world's police man, bombing 7 countries, etc.

Alice Ball's avatar

Good God Johnny-O, you are a world class idiot.

He's making far more THIS term.

Tomas Pajaros's avatar

Epstein was one of the largest investors in the hedge fund managed by Bear Stearns and a key federal witness in the criminal prosecution of two of Bear Stearns’ top executives in 2008 —

the same year a non-prosecution agreement between federal prosecutors and Epstein’s legal team was negotiated.

"It isn’t clear if Epstein’s involvement in the Bear Stearns case played a role in his plea deal," but the Miami Herald’s award-winning story on the plea negotiations revealed “an unusual level of collaboration between federal prosecutors” led by Alexander Acosta, and Epstein’s legal team.

Jacquijacq's avatar

Let’s face it, in his first term, Trump made some stinker appointments - listening to recommendations from long time entrenched Republicans. This time he is staying away from them

Matt L.'s avatar

Yes, but jury still out on current US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick who spent a lot of time playing cards and watching movies at Jeffrey’s NY townhouse. The same townhouse gifted to him by Les Wexner.

Abiding Dude's avatar

His picks this time are far worse.

A gaggle of zionist-controlled traitors.

Critical Thinker's avatar

Interesting. An oversight, or putting baddies in the spotlight to further incriminate themselves. Or, you might suggest this is Trump being deep state himself...always a possibility but not one that stands up to any sort of scrutiny.

Proberta's avatar

"Trump being deep state himself....not one that stands up to any sort of scrutiny"

Except for the fact that the Deep State is running America because Trump filled the Swamp, AGAIN.

Abiding Dude's avatar

True.

Lutnick may soon resign... hell, Trump might too!

Wiles is a vile POS... Ratcliffe and Waltz traitors... Hegseth a clown, Kellogg too... Rubio a jagoff...

Kash and Blondi, despicable turncoat liar scum...

Janine Melnitz's avatar

There will be no meaningful arrests while Bondi is in place. Possible no arrests with Trump either. Remember when MTG stated that Trump told her he was concerned about the release of the Epstein files because they would hurt "many of my friends". Why the f*ck are you still friends with these idiot freaks?

Abiding Dude's avatar

Agree.

IMO, Kash and Blondi and Bongina are all protecting Trump by participating in his ludicrous denials and diversions.

What a STENCH of guilt and corruption!

I'm betting Trump will NOT finish his term.

Johnny-O's avatar

Trump was selected, as all are presidents. Don't you think it is a bit odd that ostensibly the most powerful person in the world (Trump) went through 2 alleged assassination attempts that have had investigations that are utter jokes?

Proberta's avatar

"...investigations that are utter jokes"

Of course they are! Because the fake AF Trump shooting: https://old.bitchute.com/video/XyQfYhZO9mLT/

annademo's avatar

During his first term, President Trump was poorly advised on building his team and being a political novice, he went along. The current iteration of President Trump has been picking much better team members. Do you agree?

Michelle Enmark, DDS's avatar

I completely agree, annademo. I think this cabinet is overall the strongest I’ve seen in my adult lifetime.

SHug's avatar

Many of the successful team members were hand picked by Heritage Foundation's 2025 Roadmap crew.

annademo's avatar

LOL, yes, that evil Project 2025 that the Left kept screaming about. President Trump was wise to keep himself separated from such activities during the election.

SHug's avatar

I also think anyone serious would do this anytime they ran for any office.

c Anderson's avatar

Bert, manipulating facts leaves you open to looking stupid when you are finally outed.

Janine Melnitz's avatar

Acosta even admitted it was an order from above his pay grade regarding the sweetheart deal. It shows Epstein was involved all the way up the food chain. I put little blame on Acosta at this point.

Proberta's avatar

Yes Janine, Acosta was obviously Deep State, and could be counted on to do as he was told and let Epstein off.

That's why Trump rewarded him with a PRESIDENTIAL APPOINTMENT!

Alan Devincentis's avatar

In 2017 it was, what I’m saying.

Johnny-O's avatar

What is new knowledge? Acosta? That's laughable if that is what you are suggesting - especially for the alleged 3D chess master Trump.

Mike Simmons's avatar

If Joe Biden is your idea of a U.S. President, you don't get an opinion about Donald J. Trump.

In many ways, true.

But Biden didn't fund the mass-murder of over 300,000 innocents in Gaza and Lebanon... or get us close to nuclear war with Russia and China by attacking Iran for the juden.

There was another crazy who tried to attack Mar-a-Lago early yesterday morning with a gas can and a shotgun. He got past the outer perimeter but was "neutralized", as they say.

President Trump wasn't even at Mar-a-Lago. When he talked to Angel Families yesterday, President Trump mentioned all the people gunning for him and said he hoped he'd make it through his term.

Maggie Think of Me's avatar

Alan Devincentis's avatar

I’m thinking he’s using him at this point. Too many instances of ick from that guy.

Johnny-O's avatar

It would seem like with all the big financial dealings with globalists and leaders around the world that Epstein had, having one of his associates in Lutnick running one of the most important and powerful governmental departments may not be the greatest of ideas. But I know Trump is playing 3D chess and we should just trust the guy no matter what.

Alan Devincentis's avatar

I guess we’ll eventually find out.

The way you’re panicking, I’m beginning to believe you’re on Epstein’s list, ole Johnny-Zero.

Feb 24Edited

Can you point out anything Lutnick DID that requires prosecution? Other than he lied about not ever contacting him again? Then wanted to have lunch on Epstein's island when there in the area on a family vacation?

I'm being serious, I would like to know.

Johnny-O's avatar

There is a long history regarding Lutnick and Epstein being friends and doing business together. An actual investigation would likely reveal a lot. He is way too close to centers of power and the financial system for comfort.

I know I've read a bit about it from Whitney Webb (one of the top Epstein researchers). I'll link some info if I get time to search.

Michelle Enmark, DDS's avatar

Agree Johnny-O, that he should probably resign but there are so many more in the Demo camp it appears so far.

SM's avatar

So a few perverted people "resigned in disgrace" but haven't been arrested.

The DOJ released enough to horrify, traumatize and paralyze us, yet every single child eating* rapist is free. (*allegedly)

🤮🤮

I'm tired of the theatrics and obfuscation from the DOJ. They are really tip-toeing around their duty of JUSTICE for Epstein's victims.

Meanwhile, where are the promised aliens? Will they be attending tonight's SOTU speech? Do they vote Democrat or Republican? Will they be flying in on their super advanced spaceships? Have they been to Epstein Island too? 🤡🛸

richardw's avatar

Ok ok, I'm going to show some of my turning over a new leaf for life extension optimism here. Stay with me, this may sound like a crackpot theory but here goes. Trump disparaging MTG (have you already forgotten who this is?) and Massie, Bondi's flip flop on "I have the files", then, "no big deal, he just used the girls for himself", Kash Patel and Bongino "He definitely killed himself", Trump's "are you still talking about...Epstein, that creep" and finally blondy's "look at the dow!" were all clown show distractions designed to give cold comfort to the creeps, assuage their concerns and let their guard down. At some point they are going to spring the trap and they're all going down, finishing up with all the Rothschilds burning at the stake. I feel so much better, I'll live to a hundred now!

ViaVeritasVita's avatar

Thank you Richardw--I posited to husband this weekend past that perhaps DJT dumping so cruelly on Sen. Massie is just one scene in one act of one play. Same for MTG. Same for the bromance break-up with Elon.

Michelle Enmark, DDS's avatar

I think bromance break up with Elon was planned ahead and staged…

SHug's avatar
Feb 24Edited

Nah, I think MTG got her panties in a twist when DJT told her she did not have the numbers to run for Senate. She's showing her true colors now by stabbing everyone in the back that she can, cause it's not all about her now.

Yea, the Elon breakup was SO staged, probably so the smurfs would stop burning his Teslas/dealerships.

Not sure what's going on with Massie. He's been... different since his wife died & he remarried.

Johnny-O's avatar

Or, and more likely - it's the exact opposite and the pedos are being protected. Trump could put on the charade you hypothesize without funding a campaign to challenge Massie. That is quite telling.

Great to see this fallout from the Epstein file release finally happening.

On a separate note, I am curios what is going on with Obama (Russia hoax) - I have tried to be patient, but it has been 7 full months. I know because I set a calendar invite to check up on this after 7 months which came yesterday.

Jeff I was so excited when you wrote this on 7/23/25:

"What made Trump’s moment yesterday so Rubicon-like wasn’t the accusation itself. It was the irreversible commitment it represented. You don’t accuse a former president of treason —on camera, in the Oval Office, claiming you have the proof— and later shrug it off as political theater. Sorry, never mind!

...

If Trump is wrong, or if he fails to follow through, the blowback won’t just be political injury; it will be existential. His credibility will implode, his presidency will stall, and his enemies will seize the narrative: that he recklessly smeared a predecessor for meaningless revenge.

...

Either Obama faces justice, or Trump’s presidency is buried beneath the weight of his own words."

When is Justice going to happen? we are over 25% through this administration and I am frustrated that this has not advanced.

Do you still stand by what you wrote? I am trying not to lose the faith....

Absolutely. The massive Somali daycare fraud and all the Medicare scams are a particularly juicy target. Welfare scammers are widely despised, and it hits Democrats at their strongest persuasion point: that they are the “good people” just trying to help the needy. When people see proof of billions in fraud, some of which went into Democrat politician pockets, it will be a crisis for their entire party.

If any of you are betting people, you can get 5 to 1 odds on betting markets that the GOP will keep the House. I see that as an essential part of Trump’s plan, so I made a large wager.

yes, but also takes a long time to have a trial, prosecute, etc. The longer it takes to indict you run the risk of a D taking the Whitehouse during the trial and having DoJ abandon the case...

"...for dinner with Michelle and me..." Thank you for using the correct pronoun. Too many people would have written "...and I..."

object of the proposition so it HAS to be me, right?!

I is for subject?! right?

Ruth H's avatar

Yes. With I even sounds wrong, it’s with me. Just ignore other name(s) and easily see how to use proper noun/pronoun.

pretty-red, old guy's avatar

yep, I was just recalling that my main way of bringing this out of the gray matter was the fact of it's location in the sentence-- object of a preposition-- informs as to the use of ME, instead of I. I was pretty dang good diagramming sentences. . . back in the day!

Ruth H's avatar

I’ve noticed in tv shows the new ‘thing’ is ‘do you want to go with’ rather than ‘go with me’ or ‘go with us’ or ‘do you want to go.’ For some reason it drives me batty to leave it ending with just ‘with’. 🤦‍♀️ Am I the only one?

pretty-red, old guy's avatar

yep. You're not alone.

Hey that is against the RULE: "Never end a sentence with a preposition!" Right?!

drives me batty too(Batty is the name of our tom cat.)

When we first moved into Minnesota I had never heard someone say:

"Hey, would you like to go with?"

. . . imagine an unseen, doubletake look . . . I finally got used to it.

This made me laugh …. I’m not playing their game and will not drop a preposition 😝

Wow. Another post that blows my mind. My friends consider me wacky for thinking Trump has big and long-term plans, and then Mr. Childers comes along with another angle I hadn’t thought of. For some odd reason, so many forget that Trump had a successful reality TV show for years. Isn’t it logical to think he’s using some of those storytelling skills?

Johnny-O's avatar

Yes, we certainly all are watching a show, but a whole lot of people around here aren't aware that it is exactly that - a show.

It’s better than watching a wrecking crew drama like we had under Biden. You call it a show. I call it history in the making. President Trump is the GOAT.

Only 1,700 times? There's nothing here...obviously. Pete's clean. They were simply exchanging a very complicated pop over recipe. Trust him...he's a doctor. Nothing wrong with a little extracurricular training in the dark arts to enhance ones resume. When George Carlin talked about the "Big Club" I bet he never considered this particular level of filth and perversion. I can’t help but notice the abundance of disingenuous retroactive whining and crying AFTER the fact. We call that a clue. Guilt forces one without a conscience into an embarrassing display of bad acting.

My man! Speaking of the Overton window and the Epstein files, I wanna caution we’re seeing a lot of talk of sadistic acts being put into society because of these files.

It’s starts with outrage first, but that’s the expose. As stated, soon such acts like pedophilia could become the norm.

Of course we hope this doesn’t happen, but 1) this is the Overton window and 2) we do live in a satanic society they are pushing.

Here’s some work on the Overton window and the satanic society we find ourselves in. Only by standing on the Word, truth, and love can we overcome:

Attia, a trained oncologist, gained attention 10-15 years ago by writing a series of essays on blood serum lipids, LDL, HDL, etc. He was also good friends with Gary Taubes, who wrote on the hormonal theory of obesity. I had no idea of how he ran his medical practice or his association with Epstein. When he started his podcast I listened occasionally. However, when the mRNA vaccines were forced onto the population Attia had a medical doctor on that stated emphatically that there was nothing to worry about. The vaccine would be broken down by the body in several hours and excreted . Attia had no questions, no response to this drivel. The doctor he interviewed was an uninformed idiot and you did not have to know much to realize that. I agreed with Taubes and some of the work Attia had done, but I hit the delete button. Another issue with Attia is how he treated Dave Feldman, and you can look into that if your interest is lipidology.

I have been interested in metabolism, ketosis, etc. for 20 years, and I know plenty of researchers, doctors (which includes DARPA and the US Navy Seals-exogenous ketones), in this area. When the madness began five years ago there was no rhyme or reason to how the experts that you respected would respond. Let's just say it separated the men from the boys and the women from the girls. It was a a litmus test, and I would never have guessed who would stand up and do the right thing and who just bent with the wind. It was not a function of credentials.

Whether you were an esteemed virologist, or the black dude in Southwest DC that basically told Fauci to fuck off when he and the mayor came around to promote the shots, there was no predicting what people would do.

Abiding Dude's avatar

Attia's take on cholesterol is imbecilic.

Small wonder, oncologists are the biggest grifting scumbags in medicine.

Samuel's avatar

I must have wasted ten years of my life agonizing over lipids. I used to buy my own NMR lipid tests. One day I got out of bed and realized that the whole rotten lipid (LDL) - statin establishment was based on the idea that the blood serum lipid system in human beings evolved over the last two million years to cause coronary heart disease. That is the idea underneath the whole scam. It is a complete nonsensical contradiction. If it had any validity at all, the human race would not even exist. They created a trillion dollar statin industry based on this nonsense, and Attia was all in. Note that this scam has been used for half a century to prevent you from actually eating real food (fat and protein are essential) that would prevent all of the diseases that have a metabolic origin - type II, NAFLD, coronary heart disease, all kinds of cancers- When you couple this with the vaccine outrage, it means a lot of people are going to die prematurely, and unfortunately this applies to children. It is so bad you can't fix this stuff. Nature will not tolerate a defective species.

Abiding Dude's avatar

Well said.

IF LDL naturally stuck to coronary arteries... it would not matter how much was in teh blood stream... one would still eventually clog up. Absurd.

The LDL scam continues... while they ignore the main culprit... which, IMHO, is INFLAMMATION.

Navyo Ericsen's avatar

I'm in the UK and the mood here is "oh my goodness, whatever next!" but the establishment and its media retain their grip. At dinner with friends last night, the theme was, "It will be Trump next. They just have to get him! What a horrible man!! He's in with Epstein up to his eyeballs!" It would be stupid of me to argue the point as the mind-control here is endemic. I could not possibly get through the propaganda barrier. And besides, I wouldn't get seconds or dessert or drinks afterwards and I'd get thrown out the house on my backside.

But watching the British establishment begin to fray at the edges is very enjoyable. And not just the edges. Andrew had a proper dressing down but he's always been a disposable royal, like Harry. You will not get Charles Rex sitting in a holding cell in a local police station. He owns the police station. And while it's common knowledge that many if not most of the top police, the high court judges and politicians have unlawful underage interests, even arresting Jimmy Savile could not bring down the house. Perversion begins in public schools (in the UK that means expensive private schools) like Eton, Harrow, etc. which is the pipeline to Oxbridge (Oxford and Cambridge Universities) and then to Whitehall and Number Ten.

I look forward to Starmer next, if that's possible. The entire thing needs to be demolished but that's wishful thinking on my part. And yes, Jeff is right. This is setting the stage for the US dominoes to fall.

RUSSIA would make a far superior ally.

Navyo Ericsen's avatar

In many ways, the Bolshevik revolution came to the UK decades ago and succeeded. The Cold War never truly ended when the wall came down. And Starmer was/is a Trotskyist. The demoralization of Britain is almost complete, but not quite. There's enough fight left to turn the ship around, or stop it sinking. Andrew and Mandelson are just the beginning. I have faith the tide will turn.

I know there are great people there. My concern would be safety. When I lived in Watford as a teen Yank in the late 60s, I'd often take the train into the heart of London all by myself and neither nor my parents gave it a second thought. I'd not feel comfortable doing that now.

Glad to see more fallout from the files, but it's definitely a _long_ and slow wait for any sort of real justice in the US. Admittedly, the explanation of building up some sort of narrative does make sense, though it's sad we're at a point where this just highlights the multi-tiered justice system. Any "normal" person caught up in this would never see the light of day, but the wealthy/powerful too easily skate free. And then you get judges who issue "affluenza" rulings and more who won't give fair sentences to people who "didn't know better". :-/

Didn't know about Mike Rowe's podcast for some reason, but looking that up now. I've appreciated his contributions and his common sense advice/work ethic.
