This week I was in London for a live sequel to Sky News' podcast 'The Wargame'. On stage we had former British ministers Ben Wallace, Jack Straw and Amber Rudd, and former Commander of Joint Forces Command General Sir Richard Barrons, playing out another round of simulated attack from Moscow. [1/9]

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning. Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

That feeling when you fly all the way to Davos to see Trump, make a speech about why the tangerine turd should invade a NATO ally, only to find that he won’t see you and completely chickens out of his threats about Greenland.

457 British troops lost their lives in Afghanistan. Trump avoided military service 5 times. How dare he question their sacrifice. Farage and all the others still fawning over Trump should be ashamed.

Nyt tiedämme että Trump on jo käskenyt USAn erikoisjoukoista vastaavan tahon suunnittelemaan Grönlannin valtauksen. Sotilaat JSOCissa ovat näköjään vastustaneet, koska laiton. Tämä varmaan syy miksi asia on vuodettu. Katsotaan tuleeko kohta ilmoitus että joku Kenr jää ennenaikaiselle eläkkeelle.
