I hate the “allegedly” part.

Oh no, and he was sooo close to the noble price…

none so far i would say.

Punching Nazis

I can not understand why there is not an enormous backlash from companies about this. All their employees have all the sensitive information on Microsoft servers. But watch out if you bring a USB stick to work…

Sure, and if we’re dragging out historical wins to score points, we can sit here all day trading inventions like baseball cards.

Automobiles? Germany. Jet engines and the WWW? UK. Radio? Italy (and yes, Tesla gets a nod too). Satellites and the first man in space? Soviet Union. Solid-state theory that made electronics possible? Mostly European physics.

China gave us the compass, paper, and gunpowder. India gave us the number zero and early surgery. Japan revolutionized consumer electronics and manufacturing efficiency. France had photography and hot air balloons before the Wright brothers ever left the ground.

Point is: past contributions are global. No one country owns progress. So unless you’re planning to live off 1950s prestige, maybe let’s not pretend history is a scoreboard that settles today’s reality.

Past glory doesn’t pay for today’s bill. If you want to compare what other countries have done in the past we can be sitting here for a long time.

This is just pure delusional. They wouldn’t crash Air Force Gold with him on it. They would do it without him on it, as a warning. He’s too easy to use, why would anybody with money exchange him for a potential ‘difficult’ president?

They found the new Josef Mengele?

But not a blanket tarrif, they just targeted some specific products.

NATO-Europe without the U.S. still outmatches Russia militarily and economically by a wide margin, but the real issue isn’t brute strength—it’s readiness and political will. Russia can’t beat Ukraine, let alone all of NATO, but a surprise move in the Baltics or Suwałki Gap could be disastrous if Europe doesn’t act fast. It’s not that Russia is strong—it’s that Europe can’t afford to be slow or divided.

one thing that i keep needing to bring up as well, with what troops? Russia has been losing a lot of people in Ukraine. Even if we ignore all the numbers being thrown about how many they really lost, they have lost troops. Invading Europe? Even if they would make start churning out vehicles at a breakneck speed now, where do they get the people to operate them? How will they hold the regions they would get?

To me it seems as if the plan is to make it worse for the average person, up till a point that it is almost unbearable. Then spin the narrative blaming the other countries for the situation. Get the base riled up (history has shown that that is quite easy to do). Declare martial law and “expand” American territory.

-> No elections during war time?

Ah, just thinking out loud here. Probably overreacting…

He will be pardoned before it all starts.

I was going to say to have your cake and eat it, but with the price of eggs over there I’m not really sure they could.
