"When people like Kamala Harris send our sons and daughters, our young people, to fight in stupid wars, it is the young generation that carries the burden of that. We're gonna stop sending our young people to far away lands. We are not the policemen of the world."

Presumably - for once - he did the honourable thing, and made it clear that he has no actual role, no authority, no mandate, and that he's simply a part-funder of a tiny party made up of xenophobes, racists, serial failures and / or failed Tories??

🚨The most important graph in the world has another year of data, and it doesn't look good!🚨

NASA CERES satellites measure how much sunlight Earth absorbs and how much heat is radiated back to space.

The difference is heat accumulation, which has more than tripled!

But, ah, surely with the close relationship, based on mutual respect, that Trump and Putin have, this could never happen??

Hold on, what's that?? Putin thinks Trump is a necrotic paedophile he can run rings round??

Ah, yes, well... Awkward.

US grants waiver to allow India to buy Russian oil amid Iran war β€˜Stopgap measure’ designed to keep oil flowing into global market as Middle East crisis disrupts crude shipments

I know it's a crazy idea, but maybe we could get India some oil from somewhere other than Russia??

You know, what with them being a rogue, aggressor state, and all??

I don't suppose that would keep Vlad & Don happy, would it??
