Jaichange Congrats to your DD!! And yes, I agree 100% that Scrotus/Brexit are linked by the same mindset; me first, 'othering', lack of ethics and morals, & a complete lack of empathy.

lion Bless you, we'll take any time you'll give us. It's like having someone come along and take a tantrumming toddler off our hands and giving us a break. Every minute is appreciated.

I want Trump to have a joint press conference with Bojo. I want Trump to say the NHS is on the table (like he did before, but is now denying). No wonder BoJo is avoiding him like the plague. Any of the usual Trump utterances will be very damaging to the Tories. That's why I want it

Another loss.

Phew.

I just heard about Kamala. I wonder who she'll endorse? She could be a major influence with her endorsement.

I'm just glad we get to keep her in DC as a Senator from my State.

I'm not even going to try and read that whole thing. I'll wait for the condensed version. Oh wait, I already have it......"He's fucking GUILTY!".

I'm sure Rachel will explain it all to us tonight. I pity her and her staff having to wade through that!

I think that covers it, Across.

Rachel will tie it up with a ribbon and some bells.

A little transatlantic distraction:

Less distracting:

www.theguardian.com/world/2019/dec/03/north-korea-christmas-gift-missile-nuclear

'North Korea yesterday issued a thinly veiled warning it could resume long-distance missile tests in the next few weeks if the US does not change its negotiating position on the regime’s nuclear disarmament, saying “it is entirely up to the US what Christmas gift it will select to get”.'

Senior Trump campaign official tells me @realDonaldTrump as of today is on the GOP primary ballot in 10 states. This is significant because he now qualifies as a “national candidate” when it comes to broadcast TV ad buys....

2/ A “national candidate” can buy ads at a reasonable rate and at reasonable times (called “reasonable access”) and broadcast stations cannot reject the ads.

Ooh! Tough question

What we learned from Free, Melania, the salacious new book about the first lady
The first lady is an enigma. But is she as vapid as she seems – or just a private person?

Wow so many Trump haters.
I will vote for him again in 2020.
The economy has never been better here in the states.
He doesnt kiss ass like Obama amd.many presidents before him.
He has done so much for our country.
Dont listen to fake news folks.

Oh thank you so much for putting a straight Shoot🙂 this thread has been running for good few years now, if only you coulda come along at the start and explained all to us🙂 so generous of you to pop along now and illustrate the error of our ways 🙂

Well done Emmanuel
Macron corrects Trump to his face at NATO meeting over his repeated false claims that ISIS is defeated

What ”fake news” in particular, Shoot?

All of the right-wing tweeters are in a tizzy about how Schiff managed to get the phone records of Nunes and Giuliani. Must be illegal! FISA! Much head exploding! They don’t seem to have heard of the subpoena.

"They don’t seem to have heard of the subpoena." Aaargh, I can't take the stupid - anyhow, TheClaws, that's a furrin word, innit, used by legal experts, so they won't have any truck with that. Is it not possible to get a subpoena to view Trump's tax lies records, or can't you do that to a sitting President? (Apologies, am sure this must have been asked and answered before, it's just I'm not paying much attention at the back.)
