7 posts since joining all of which are critical of Muslims / Palestinians. There’s a theme developing (and last post on the main site which was their second in over 3 years was talking about making 10 votes for Israel in the Eurovision Song Contest).

From the name and location I think they may be a former Cake Stopper who possibly feels more empowered to say this stuff outright whereas they just hinted at it on there.

He either can't read the teleprompter or someone is having fun at his expense.
Or he can read the teleprompter and its an imbecile.

Or gramps thinks he's great at impromptu stuff.

Sure, gamps, sure. South something, yes, I'm sure you did. Now sip your tea slowly... here's the straw.

Unless there's a major volte face from the Republican Supreme Court justices, it's looking likely that Trump's tariffs will be declared illegal, to the extent Barrett was talking about mechanisms as to if and how tariffs already paid could be refunded. It'd be quite the pushback, and with consequences for global trade.

If I had to guess right now (and it is premature!) I'd say the Supreme Court is going to strike down Trump's tariffs. All three liberals are clearly against the government. Barrett too. Roberts leaning that way. And we haven't even gotten to tax-hater Gorsuch yet.

Chief Justice Roberts is out. Says the major questions doctrine pretty clearly applies here; the tariffs simply can't survive that. Looks like five pretty clear votes against Trump. And we STILL haven't gotten to Gorsuch...

Roberts now going at the solicitor general like a cat with a wounded mouse. Keeps telling him that tariffs are taxes on the American people. "Who pays the tariffs??" Says Trump's argument would neutralize separation of powers between the legislative and executive branches. Incredible stuff.

There are a lot of factors pushing Republican-appointed justices against Trump, but here's a one: They hate taxes, and know that tariffs are taxes. Just last year, four of them suggested that large portions of our federal income tax code are unconstitutional! www.supremecourt.gov

Gorsuch finally speaks, and oh yeah, he's against Trump. Alito also sounded skeptical, which is surprising to me. Regardless, there will plainly be a lopsided majority to strike down the tariffs. The government better start working on its Plan B...

Will Chinese do you?

China recognises organisations as terrorists which impact on their interests, but it differs in several places from the West in that it does not recognise e.g. Hamas or Hezbollah as terrorist organisations.

Further the Chinese government’s view is that it opposes any attempt to link terrorism with specific countries, governments, ethnicity or religion unlike some on this forum who seem to link Muslim to terrorist.
 
Islamic terrorists destroyed New York two biggest buildings and the Pentagon

Who voted this fella in, I bet not those who lived through that time

The Islamic Terrorists that came from Saudi Arabia, who Trump loves to smooch up to?

Sculpture of Trump strapped to a cross displayed in Switzerland​

Basel (Switzerland) (AFP) – A realistic-looking sculpture of Donald Trump in an orange jumpsuit and strapped to a cross has stirred discussion -- and smiles -- in Switzerland, where it went on display this week.
The work, by British artist Mason Storm and titled "Saint or Sinner", depicts the US president in prison garb with his eyes closed and his body laid out on a slightly tilted, padded white cross, evoking a possible crucifixion -- or an execution by lethal injection.

When Switzerland gave Trump the finger​

The Swiss are famously moderate – but when an image from a Basel carnival went viral, it led to a period of national self-examination.

The three-day Basel carnival – the Basel Fasnacht – held every year at the start of Lent, is always a spectacle. The largest Protestant Lenten “masque”, its medieval origins have earned the carnival a place in the Unesco list of global intangible cultural heritage.

This year the carnival received even more attention than usual, because one group carried an eight-foot tall image of a hand giving the middle finger, and on the tip of that finger was a familiar face: that of Donald Trump. Alongside this huge obscenity, which was wheeled through the streets on a cart, was a group dressed in black costumes, each of them wearing a mask in the shape of a hand, again, with the middle finger gesturing towards the sky.

MTG - "overthrow the govt. and don't pay your taxes". This, on a normally right wing MAGA podcast.
"...because the federal government has f*cked you over...". This is a sitting congress woman.
