I'm a Dutch guy and I could answer all the questions about the US
(except the geography one).
I think that Fox "News" just needed a ruse to go to the beach and show pretty girls
in skimpy bikinis.
can we think, House of cards falling down!All to make Trump look like a failure perhaps? to early to tell but i hope this goes places!

And what do you think is that "House of cards"?
There is strong evidence that it wasn't a lab-leak.
This doesn't change that fact.
They have intercepted the private communication.
If it contained your 'smoking gun', we would know by now.
At best you have a couple of guys discussing if they need a gun.
I have no problem with investigating the possibility of a lab leak. If evidence shows that one happened, we need to know. But there is a huge difference between investigating
a possible accident and treating dangerous pathogen research itself as the problem.
Viruses don't need scientists to cause a pandemic. They evolve in nature, cross from animals into humans, and can spread before we even know they exist. Historically, we see roughly one pandemic-level outbreak somewhere in the world each year. We need scientists studying emerging viruses, developing vaccines and treatments in advance, and maintaining the surveillance and expertise needed to detect the next outbreak.
Yet the U.S. has gone in the opposite direction. The CDC has lost more than 3,000 employees, including many experienced scientists, while programs for disease surveillance and outbreak response have been weakened.
If we respond to COVID by crippling our scientific and public-health capacity, we risk making ourselves less prepared for the next pandemic. Preventing a laboratory accident is important. But preventing natural pandemics, or being ready when one inevitably occurs, is just as important.
The answer to risky science should be better oversight, not abandoning the science
and expertise we need to protect ourselves from the next pandemic.
It always seems to me and everyone else in the world that whatever threats he utters never come to fruition.
It's like he always chickens out.
TACO
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Trump Media & Technology Group, the parent company of Truth Social, launched
Truth API in August 2026. The service is aimed at businesses, particularly trading
and investment firms, and gives them the fastest access to posts from Trump and other prominent accounts. According to reports, the price can be as high as $100,000 per month, or around $60,000 per month with a long-term contract.

Testosterone group: warmth toward Republican candidates increased from 22.00 → 29.09
Placebo group: warmth increased from 25.96 → 27.26 (not statistically significant)
The experiment was conducted between March and November 2011. The paper was only published much later, on July 7, 2025. That's an important detail because the political environment was very specific: this was during the 2012 U.S. presidential primary campaign, when Obama was president and Republican candidates such as Romney, Gingrich, Palin, Huckabee and Rand Paul were prominent. The authors deliberately chose this period because political competition was highly salient.
Understand that this was a group of healthy young men, so no problems with a shortage of testosterone. In the treatment group, testosterone rose by roughly 65%. That's huge, they basically changed them into testosterone bombs.
I don't know why you focus on politics, because it would have been more logical to look for behavioral measures of:
• aggression — e.g. willingness to administer unpleasant noise to another participant;
• risk-taking — g@mbling or risk-choice tasks;
• competitive behaviour — willingness to compete for rewards;
• dominance/status seeking;
• sexual motivation;
• social boundary violations or harassment-related judgments.
You like the idea that "Liberals are low-testosterone 'soy boys'; conservatives are high-testosterone men" but these were healthy young men that they loaded up to testosterone bombs. Then some of them became more open to conservative ideas. And you like that?
It literally support my claim that conservatives are primitive emotional thinkers.
The older ideal of traditional masculinity was often something like stoicism + responsibility + self-command: a man was supposed to control his impulses, protect and provide for others, keep his word, tolerate hardship, and remain composed under pressure.
The new conservative ideal is now that a strong man doesn't let anyone tell him what he can say or feel. It supports emotional expressiveness, aggression, impulsiveness, grievance and refusal to concede into demonstrations of authenticity or strength.
In that framework, being restrained can actually look weak or submissive.
Guys like Andrew Tate represent the opposite of what a man was supposed to be.
A man was supposed to take responsibility, have self-control, protect rather than exploit, and accept the consequences of his actions. Instead, these guys exploit women for their own pleasure and greed, and then throw a temper tantrum when they are held to account.
And when the consequences arrive, they ask Trump for protection and openly threaten Marco Rubio’s son if they don’t keep them out of prison.
That’s not strength. It’s entitlement, cowardice, and a complete lack of self-control.
Manhood was supposed to be about mastering your impulses, not being ruled by them.

Maybe he should have just talked about the DOW.
Or got his black book of burns out.
Your president was talking about parasite medicine
and purging people with bleach for fucks sake.
Your media was fearmongering after they were ALL VAXXED.
All your politicians got vaxxed before everyone else.
That's the hypocrisy and dumbassery that Fauchi had to deal with.
And what is Trump doing now? Eliminating all the emergency capacity for the next pandemic, while infections are rushing over your country like never before, because the people who's job it is to prevent that have been cut to breaking point. If Trump was actually a Russian operative planted to destroy your country, he couldn't be doing a better job.

"If withholding rent becomes a common tenant-union tactic, that will only accelerate building disinvestment and deterioration.
For the mayor and the DSA, however, forcing rent-stabilized property owners into foreclosure or bankruptcy is the point.
His housing plan calls for seizing buildings from “bad actors’ hands” and transferring them to “responsible stewards” like nonprofits."
Those "responsible stewards" will be fellow socialist-communist and living conditions will be worse as communist only want a "shelter" and gruel for their subjects,free to them of course!
Make it so landlords can't adjust rent rates to keep up with inflation and increased taxes. It prompts late payments and mounting debt for the landlords which will prompt bankruptcy. then who cleans up on buildings for penny's on the dollar of what they are actually worth? the democrat communist. Which will then rent them to people, and let them go down hill until they look like the slums in africa.But it is cheap or free housing they will say, all the while laughing all the way to the bank with the rent money they are not reinvesting in the buildings to maintain them.
or what the article is saying, but in reaction to what Mamdani is ACTUALLY doing.
Understand my position: Too much property is owned by too few people.
Besides, if you took every building,and gave each person a building,within a few months all of them would be back in the hands of people that had them when you took them. because most people are like kids,can't manage money or assets. they don't teach it in schools.
However, I prefer PUBLIC rental houses, in which the proceeds of the rental houses goes back into the common wealth, and the citizens can democratically control what purposes that wealth should serve.
You describe the process of capitalism, which is a centralizing effect of wealth. Indeed, that is the problem, but you are describing individual private ownership with "gave each person a building". That's not PUBLIC ownership, because public ownership is COLLECTIVELY SHARED ownership.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
They will not be deported. They will be treated with great respect and thanked profusely by the government of British Columbia, the government of Canada and Canadian citizens because that's how good neighbours treat each other.
For a while last year on the Weather page on my phone it didn't say sunny or cloudy, it just said smoke!
Those fireman came with the full intentions of helping your country in a time of need. And yes I hope you do appreciate it.
But the river swimmers that come to America, simply want to take a job that a American could do, send the money home and rinse and repeat. while their wives and kids use up our resources meant for citizens needing help. in other words, no intentions or desires to help America or it's people but only themselves.
The Canadian government is not "hunting" Mexicans.
As an aside, I saw on CTV news today at a recent pole indicated that 80% of Canadians "strongly agree" that we should send help to the US to help with an emergency situation if we could.
Sounds more like murder to me,

The death panels are already there, controlled by insurance companies.
They decide if your life is worth the money, even if you are 20 years old.
Sadly, they don't provide the palliative sedation, you just suffer and die CHEAPLY.
Medical Assistance In Dying (MAID) is for terminal patients where natural death is reasonably foreseeable. It's a process just to be approved. Bottom line is that the patient decides.. always.. but if they're incoherent, their power of attorney decides ..not the doctors, however doctors can deny you this service entirely if they choose. You have to be approved by more than one doctor to proceed.
It doesn't add up.. if there is any truth to this story, the fault (or as you said "murder") would lie within the POA and the private (for profit) long term care facility she was in, not our free healthcare system you like to hate on.
The socialist can't even stay out of simple town hall meetings.
BUT considering what they are dealing with as far as bus riders,A group of looney toon characters may need to stop in and bring some brains to the operation.
"“We would have to take two and three buses just to get to where we want to go — and that’s unfair,” Clarke said."
It's a free fucking ride you dumbass! what do you expect? A fucking limo?
Here's another recent example:
Harriet Hageman — Wyoming — August 2025
Where: National Museum of Military Vehicles, Dubois, Wyoming
Event: Official congressional town hall
Hageman's town hall was an official constituent event. The New Yorker attended and described the meeting as intensely political, with discussion of Trump, federal policy, veterans, the First Amendment and other contentious issues.
Bob Culver of the Jackson Hole Tea Party was present at the event and engaged in the discussion afterward.
The Jackson Hole Tea Party is not simply a generic civic organization. It is part of the Tea Party movement, a conservative political movement that has been closely aligned with the Republican Party and advocates limited government, lower taxes and conservative candidates/policies.
DSA isn't technically a political party. NYC-DSA is organized as a 501(c)(4) social-welfare organization. Also, DSA was simply one of several organizations invited because of its work on transit.
Other invited organizations were:
- Fair Fares NYC
- Transportation Alternatives
- NYC-DSA's transit working group
- Riders Alliance
The Democratic Socialists of America released its official 2026 political program, titled "Workers Deserve More," in July 2026. The platform outlines radical structural changes to the U.S. government alongside major social welfare and economic reforms.Government and Constitutional OverhaulAbolish institutions: Eliminating the U.S. Senate, the Electoral College, and national borders.Restructure power: Replacing the presidency and the Supreme Court with leaders chosen directly by Congress, and rewriting a new U.S. constitution.Voting rights: Granting voting rights to all permanent U.S. residents.Economic and Social ReformsAbolish capitalism: Placing major industries, health care, housing, and energy under public ownership or control.Public goods: Eliminating private debt, mortgages, and healthcare costs through universal social programs.Criminal justice and defense: Defunding the Pentagon and completely abolishing the prison system and ICE.
So criminals would roam the streets along side illegal aliens, the people would have no say in who's their leader, no one would own anything, our military essentially neutered. what the fuck would be left?
Yes, they intend to abolish ICE immediately, because it is literally the "jackbooted thugs" force that your side warned about for decades. That doesn't mean that illegal aliens will roam the streets, because they will all get to document for LEGAL stay, a green card or apply for citizenship.
They believe many of the forces driving migration are caused or worsened by global economic inequality, climate change, and U.S. foreign policy. They advocate policies they believe would reduce the need for people to migrate, such as reducing military intervention abroad, supporting workers' rights internationally, and addressing climate change.
If you stop fucking up other countries, people will want to stay there.
Like how I don't want to come to the US, because I'm happy and doing well in my country.
How about a vision of actually improving life for everyone?
What is your idea? Making the US suck so much that no one wants to be there?
It's working! Soon you will need that border wall to keep people IN!
"What the fuck would be left?" You have just described your country as private debt, mortgages, healthcare costs, prisons, the military and ICE. When that is taken away,
nothing would be left. Think about that. Are those the things that define America?
NO prisons needed? Ha are you kidding? Smoking some of that fairy dust now are we? There will always be killers and thugs that your sweet words and candy pills can't fix. they will need to be kept locked safely away from your other citizens that will be unable to defend themselves for the lack of guns and knives and common sense.
example,
Apprehensions of Chinese nationals at the southern border escalated sharply from a few hundred a year to tens of thousands annually, making them one of the fastest-growing demographics arriving at the border
At least the DSA is willing to TRY something different than repression. Maybe they won't succeed in making prisons obsolete, but they might be able to lower the need to the average of European countries. Do you have any idea of the cost savings and benefits, if young people are working good jobs, instead of wasting their lives in prisons?
'They' don't SEND people to the US. People LEAVE their countries, looking for something better. This is the ranking of nationalities that were coming to the US in 2024:
1. Mexico (proximity, Economics)
2. Venezuela (Economic collapse)
3. Guatemala (Poverty, violence)
4. Honduras (Poverty, violence)
5. El Salvador (Economics)
6. Colombia (Economics)
7. Ecuador (Economic insecurity)
8. Cuba (Political repression)
9. Nicaragua (Authoritarian rule)
10. China (Economics, repression)
Yes, China entered your top 10, because of Covid and Trump's trade war. China pulled themselves up by their bootstraps, by making lots of cheap products for the West. Then they started making better and better stuff, and created competition for the West. That's a threat to our way of life, so we started to push back. Is that fair? That depends on your principles. If you believe in unregulated free trade capitalism, thinking that's the best system, you shouldn't feel threatened by competition from an authoritarian state-capitalist country.
We have a similar immigration problem in Europe, with some different countries:
1. Syria (Civil war)
2. Afghanistan (Conflict, Taliban)
3. Ukraine (Russian invasion)
4. Venezuela (Economic collapse)
5. Türkiye (Politics, economy)
6. Colombia (Economics)
7. Morocco (Economics)
8. Bangladesh (Economics)
9. Pakistan (Economics)
10. Mali (Conflict, poverty)
Some people DO try to send their women and children to safety. They are denied
at your borders just the same. To get to Europe, many of them need a boat. Thousands of them drown. There are maritime patrols to try to save them before that happens.
However, there was just an invasion of Moroccans in Ceuta, a Spanish exclave bordering Morocco directly. All those people were saying that there are no jobs in Morocco that they can live on. There is no evidence that the Moroccan government organized or sent these migrants. It can be traced back to a social media mobilization.
"fight for their own countries to be safe and prosperous"? Tell me what that looks like. Literal fighting? Should they pick up guns and fight their government? That's called
"Civil war". It has worked sometimes. In the short term, in Syria, it created only more devastation and the resulting immigrant wave. I hope they succeed in creating something better than they had.
In the current global market, countries cannot win on capitalism. They will only get exploited by the West. China made incredible gains with STATE controlled capitalism.
The result is huge mega factories, in which the lights can be turned off, because robots do all the work. It generated income for the state, resulting in other more welfare and investments that do help people, which is beating your crony capitalism, but it doesn't make people free and independent. It's still centralized power and centralized wealth. For all people to do well, that requires (more) equality in both power and wealth.
And if the wealthy and powerful people don't share, people will need to keep fleeing
from horrible places, looking for a better future.

By the way, the UK ain't Europe no more, remember?
The UK split, because they are very much like the US.
They preferred to split with the EU and increase cooperation with the US.
And now they are hurting from it, and not gaining much from relations with the US.
They did become more like the US though. Their depth and severity of poverty have drastically worsened. The UK is not yet as bad as the US, when it comes to overall poverty, but it is closer to the US than almost any other Western European country.
Immigration was one of the major issues in the 2016 Brexit referendum campaign.
The Reform Party, Nigal Farage, was one of the main instigators.
And when Brexit happened, that invalidated EU–UK Cooperation Agreements.
That indeed reduced EU immigration, but non-EU immigration increased significantly.
Net migration rose substantially after Brexit.
The UK and France going to war, would result in a perpetual stalemate.
Both countries are nuclear powers, by the way.

Can you please
1) tell me if this person handles English correctly
2) translate his posting into more readable English
3) explain, what he's trying to say
CHATGPT'S REPLY
Yes. There are quite a few problems with the English.
How well does he handle English?
I would describe it as poorly written. The writer is probably not a native English speaker.
There are several grammatical, spelling, punctuation, and usage problems:
◦ “Britian”→ should be“Britain.”
◦ “what's this?”is understandable, but the sentence structure is awkward.
◦ “with commandos”is an incomplete/awkward construction.
◦ “almost sounds like a act of war”→ should be“almost sounds like an act of war.”
◦ “to prevent illegals from coming in from France”is grammatically possible, but “illegals” is a politically loaded noun for undocumented migrants;“illegal immigrants”or“undocumented migrants”would be more standard depending on the intended terminology.
◦ “Shouldn't be any problem with the French”is missing the subject. Standard English would be“There shouldn't be any problem with the French.”
◦ There is essentially no punctuation separating some of the thoughts, so the post reads like someone typing out thoughts as they occur rather than carefully composing an argument.
The second link is also relevant to understanding the joke: the image says,“Want to buy a French rifle? It's in good condition. It was dropped once, but never fired.”
That is an old anti-French joke based on the stereotype that the French military is unwilling or unable to fight.
**********************************
Here's how I think the post would read if you preserved the person's intended tone and argument but corrected the English:
_________________________
People who criticize Trump for being aggressive about immigration should look at Britain. Britain is talking about using commandos to deal with migrants coming from France, which is almost like threatening military action against France. But I don't suppose Britain would have much trouble with the French military anyway!”
_______________________
So it's political sarcasm mixed with an anti-French military joke. The writer is probably trying to mock both the people criticizing Trump and the French, rather than making a carefully reasoned argument about British immigration policy.
Grok AI,
question, "What do you call a snob that finds fault in everything you say and do?"
answer
A faultfinder (or nitpicker, carper, or captious critic).
Someone who acts superior while constantly pointing out flaws in what you say and do is commonly called a faultfinder—a person given to harsh, often petty or unreasonable criticism. Closely related everyday terms include:
Nitpicker: Someone who obsesses over minor, unimportant details and finds fault everywhere.
Carper: A habitual complainer who finds things to object to, often querulously and without strong reason.
Captious (person/critic): Marked by an ill-natured tendency to stress faults and raise objections.
Hypercritic or censorious type: Excessively or captiously critical, often with a judgmental edge.
When the superiority/snobbery angle is strong (looking down on others while criticizing), terms like supercilious critic, sniffy faultfinder, or simply a judgmental snob also fit. “Cynic” can apply in cases with a sneering, distrustful tone, though it’s broader.
These words capture the mix of haughty superiority and relentless fault-finding better than a generic “critic.”
I'm surprised that I don't hear any fearmongering about him.

Yep, a crazy radical, for saying what most Americans believe.
Or do you think that I should add some weasel words to make you support it:
"Everyone deserves the opportunity to go to a good school, access to healthcare,
and have the opportunity to get a good job." like all your fake ass bitch politicians do.
