I know we all like a smattering of brexit with our Trump:

Amber Rudd leads charge to prevent rebel Lords changing Theresa May's Brexit Bill
www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/brexit-latest-amber-rudd-theresa-may-article-50-patrick-mcloughlin-gina-miller-a7600036.html

I have noticed that the lords tend not to respond well to MPs from the commons trying them how they should vote. This bullying approach could work against the Government.

Hello!

I'm going to force myself to go offline for a bit and go for a walk in that weird thing outside known as fresh air ... I'll probably see you all a million posts into the new thread!

No worries Dumdedum as the ad was linked to yesterday as well - I was just too lazy to go back and look.

Yes I think May made a serious tactical error with this. A show of power in front of the Lords never seems to end well - it gets their backs up. She should have just stepped back and let them do what they do.

Oh my, that's priceless.

Swedish immigrant (from Sweden to the US) who claims that Swedish immigrants (people immigrating to Sweden) are violent, is... violent.

Nils Bildt, the Swedish fake "national security advisor" has a conviction in the US for assaulting a law enforcement person and for obstruction of justice, and was sentenced to a year in jail.

Oddly, he also changed his name in the US, from Tolling to Bildt.

And here’s how Carla Bruni reacted after Trump planted a false story that the two were romantically involved www.buzzfeed.com/andrewkaczynski/heres-why-carla-bruni-once-said-donald-trump-was-obviously-a?utm_term=.bxVzqrXpa#.pqv5KoxqY …

Interesting to think what Farage's position on a Californian secession would be.

On the other hand, on these threads I don't think that the idea has been ridiculed and it seems like we're predominantly Remainers so does it not amount to the same thing?

I don't remember the ad from yesterday, but at least it was to clarify what Trump meant on a recent post.

I keep posting things and have them reposted by other people too, hours after the news came out. These threads are too long.

I don't know that I would continue to be a remainer if I thought EU was turning into a fascist dictatorship painintheear. I have said before that if France, Holland and Germany all vote in far right leaders, as is possible, this would not be the same Europe I voted to remain in and I may consider my view.

The idea of a California secession was first hinted at by Trumpettes claiming that the California votes shouldn't count as it was only one state. And why should one (very populated) state predominate over others?

As long as people eventually see something, eh?

Yeah, I see reposts of things I've posted. I'm not bothered. The important thing is that the info is available for people to see. I know sometimes I miss reading things the first time around.

They have to walk a very careful line there, Lweji.

GingerIvy, I should have said my post about Fake Nils was in response to your earlier post and link to theintercept.com/2017/02/25/fox-news-interview-fake-expert-sweden-baffles-swedes/

Thank you, it has made me .

Although I'm not sure that the word 'careful' is in their lexicon.

Ah, OK, Ginger, I missed that ad yesterday, saw it just before I posted the link here! I would never have bothered subscribing to the NYT were it not for Trump.

Love this comment back to Trump's tweet backing off the Corresponents' Dinner:

@realDonaldTrump You haven't dodged something in such a cowardly manner since the Vietnam draft.

Dumdedum it's really not a problem at all. Lots of us repost things we've seen elsewhere so there are bound to be repeats. The threads move fast, so it's helpful as things sometimes get missed the first time around.

Ew, that article about him planting a fake story, claiming a relationship with Carla Bruni, is horribly reminiscent of him continually bombarding Princess Diana with unwanted flowers.

Well, I don't remember this joke:

Perez fires back at Trump: I'll be your worst nightmare

I didn't realise that Trump fans were suggesting the secession. It's very tiring trying to examine all the positions I individually hold and make sure there aren't any biases: how do I square my thoughts about scoxit with brexit with trump etc and are they logically consistent positions to be taking?

Fox News tweeted that they stood by the journalists excluded from the gaggle just as the excluded journalists stood by Fox News when Obama tried to do the same thing. Is that factually accurate or something they've said to smear Obama or has it just gone unreported (although this seems unlikely)? Google throws up breitbart articles about this but not too much else so I'd be inclined to think it didn't happen but it's difficult to be sure of the facts when there are so many blatant untruths being bandied about with no official consequences.

Thanks for helping with the process- the information here is invaluable!

Pain

Just concentrate on what you can verify. They're 'standing by' the excluded journalists.
