- The Epstein Files could very easily bring down the UK Prime Minister. It would be nice to think similar things were happening in the USA. They won't, of course; nobody there gives a damn.
- Reposted by vicwhittingtonYes they should.
- Reposted by vicwhittingtonDonald Trump didn't break the political system on his own. Our broken political system is why we have Trump.

- Reposted by vicwhittingtonWRONG. I-205 administrative warrants are not issued by immigration judges. They’re signed by ICE officers. And EVEN IF THEY WERE issued by an immigration judge - they are executive branch employees, NOT judicial branch. JUDICIAL warrants are needed to enter a home without consent.
- I wonder whether the authors of the US Constitution ever conceived the the Congress, to whom they gave the most power, would one day be bought, lock stock and barrel.
- If Trump ever does manage to prove he won the 2020 Election, does that mean his current term is illegal and nullified?
- Growing up in the 1940's and 1950's I found it difficult to understand how the Nazis managed to recruit so many guards for the concentration camps. Seeing ICE in action on the streets of so many US cities today, I understand it presented no difficulty whatsoever.
- Dear Andrew, Trump has thrown you under the bus. Maybe you couid think about returning the favour?

- I find it difficult to understand how Trump's approval rating is still somewhere in the forties. Then I remember Hitler. In 1945.
- Reposted by vicwhittingtonIt's really too bad the United States Congress no longer exists.

- Reposted by vicwhittingtonSpecial Counsel Jack Smith in his Opening Remarks:
- Never mind hiding the car keys from Grandad. Ask him wtf he did with the nuclear launch codes.
- Trump's Davos speech? Petulantly vindictive.
- Reposted by vicwhittingtonNo one can be watching this Davos speech and reach any conclusion but that the President of the United States is mentally disturbed and that something is deeply wrong with him. This is both embarrassing and extremely dangerous.
- USA, if you are not cringing with embarrassment in a corner somewhere in Davos, you are as insane as he is.
- If only Mark Carney were President of the USA.

- Reposted by vicwhittingtonICE is a secret police force. No warrants. No courts. No lawyers. And no appeals. People vanish in the night, not because they broke the law, but because the law no longer means anything. The knock on the door is the sentence.

- I suggest everyone in the USA takes a little time to study how Putin took over Crimea.
- Greenland is a feint. His real objective is Canada, or part of it.
- He doesn't need the Insurrection Act. He just needs to station 50 or so ICE operatives close to a few critical polling stations to "prevent massive voting fraud by gangs of illegals" and he can win sufficient seats to leave his power unconstrained for the next two years.
- Of all the US Citizens who should feel the greater shame right now, it isn't those who voted for Trump. It is those who did not vote at all. They were just as responsible, but believe they can deny it.
- Reposted by vicwhittingtonDOJ investigating whether Denmark lied on its Greenland mortgage.
- Dear USA, It was nice, we had some good times, a few laughs and shared tears. There are good memories and, of course the photographs. But now, it's over. I'm sorry. It's not us, it's you. We hope you will be happy, but we doubt it. 'Bye! Thanks for your attention in this matter.

- Have often wondered, if today's social media had been available in the 1930's, whether Germany would still have slid into Nazism. Looking at the USA today, I have to say I doubt it would have made any difference
- Dear USA, I am sorry to have to tell you this, but it is too late. I can see no way back.

- Reposted by vicwhittingtonI think it is probably a bad idea to put clearly unhinged, angry psychopaths in federal law enforcement positions.
- Reposted by vicwhittingtonIt has occurred to me that people are finally mad because a white citizen was killed even though they didn't give a shit when it was immigrants dying unless to use us as props in arguments against ICE
- Please note: interfering with a Federal Officer performing their lawful duties is now a capital offence.
- The USA doesn't have a problem with guns. It has a problem with a large part of the population believing they have the right to kill other people.
- Reposted by vicwhittingtonFor those keeping score, Bellingcat, The New York Times Visual Investigation Team, & Washington Post's Visual Forensic team have all published analysis showing the ICE shooter wasn't in the path of Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle when he shot her, contradicting statements by the President & his cronies

- It seems to me that the US Democratic Party has no leader. Without a leader, it cannot define it's strategy or proposals for national policy. Hence voters in the mid-term elections will have only the option to vote AGAINST current government policy, rather than FOR better options. Slim pickings.

- Please note: Congressional authority to take the US to war is not needed if a warrant to arrest the leader of the subject nation on criminal charges has been issued, however flimsy those charges may be. RIP the Constitution.

- Anschluss Venezuela.
- A lot of Presidential press conferences being held at Mar a Lago recently. The bills for the Federal Government must be mounting nicely.
- My guess is that Trump believes that the "moral high-ground" is a piece of real estate in Colorado, and that he can abandon it without financial penalty or bankruptcy, which means this looks a pretty good deal to him.
- When you think about it, there can't be many more "honest professions than being a "hoe". Certainly it is more honest than being a politician.
- Dear God, I pray you give me one day without seeing of hearing the word "Trump".
