I’m ashamed to admit I didn’t even know we had reserves…

I feel very strongly against us being the 51st state – I’ll literally lay down my life before I let it happen – but I don’t think this should be illegal or banned. If this bothers you, vote with your wallet.

The article should mention whether or not this would affect their sovereign wealth fund, and if so, in what fashion… Not to mention how EU environmental regulations may affect what is essentially a petrostate.

Life expectancy is calculated based on people born at the time of the survey.

Wow, 86 in Madrid! Impressive.

We’re already starting to see astroturfing on Reddit, and I’m sure there’s more on other platforms I don’t use. Facebook must be even more of a cesspool than usual right now.

The american elite managed to convince ordinary americans that evil foreigners are to blame for all their problems.

No they didn’t. Millions of Americans already believed this and were waiting only for permission to externalize it.

The night before the presentation, she said she got a call from the vice chair of the education department who had raised concerns with the contents.

A couple of the slides in her presentation touched on the casualties in Gaza during the Israel-Hamas war as well as the cuts at the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). Liu said she was told the slides about Gaza “could be perceived as antisemitic” while the USAID section might be perceived as “anti governmental.”

What did PP do for work before politics?

He worked at a call centre during university but literally never had a full-time job outside politics. Unfortunately for him he hasn’t been able to leverage that extensive experience into having good political instincts or any semblance of charisma.

If anything, they haven’t condemned our fascist government enough. I think they’re still largely in shock.

There’s no sense in pointless bluster. Much is happening behind the scenes.

Also great in crepes.

Sure, in the sense that California is a city.

He really does think the EU is a country. I’m not sure my opinion of Americans will ever recover from them having voted in this absolute moron.

Indeed. The persistent hope of average Americans that some superhero will ride in from stage left and fix all of this for them is… something. It won’t happen. You all need to work together on this. Everybody needs to act and fight.

It’s already in progress: a few days ago we became a partner in a EU defense procurement deal.

77M morons handed them the reins

What does that make the other 270 million?

Why yes, I do like Rum and Coke

The guy had to deal with the UK press for years – he’s seen some shit. Donnie is a clumsy baby in comparison.

Wow it’s almost like most “Elon Musk supporters” are just Twitter bots that don’t actually exist IRL.
