I prefer the sequel when Franklin gets hanged in The Hague

Earlier, china issued a warning for US not to attack k Venezuela. They have investment prospects there.

Russia is beginning to evacuate Russian citizens from Venezuela. Special flights are to begin, as reported by ATORUS (Association of Russian Tour Operators).

141 people have been arrested in Australia as climate activists stop ships reaching the world’s biggest coal port

"Western civilization," the font, the 11 stars - 11 states in the confederacy, for the record. Why is this never news? Why are we letting our government agencies do this sort of thing while the news agencies report on hallucinated trade deals and act like everything is normal

Every citizen of the US should be clowning on the White House press corps for the pathetic, cowardly, sycophants that they are As long as they live, they should never be able to get the stench off themselves. Boycott their work, and exile them from society

Whenever the Greens or independents want anything to change the media screams demanding in-depth analysis from them on how the policy would work then dismisses them even if they have that analysis Pauline goes ‘look at me, I have no policy but I am racist’ and the media is like ‘let’s hear her out’

On “The Necessary Conversation” podcast, Chad’s Trump supporter parents tell him the military should follow Trump’s illegal orders and kill everyone in LA if Trump commanded it — even with him and his sister in the city😳

So the shooter (who had previously worked with CIA kill squads in Kandahar) left his wife and 5 children and drove across the entire country to shoot two random NG grunts on the streets of DC, just blocks away from the White House I'm not one for conspiracies but this fucking stinks

Ahead of launching a war on Venezuela, the US would like to announce that no one in Venezuela should help US forces, it'd be stupid to do so, the US will denigrate you and screw you over no matter how much you help, and blame you if even one Venezuelan who also helped the US ever does something bad.

Absolutely! (So long as you ignore all the violence)

Per NBC News, the suspect in the National Guard shooting is Rahmanullah Lakanwal, an Afghan national who last lived in Washington State. He is 29.

A whole lot of Yanks crying about what we choose to call them in this thread Guys, I hate to break it to you but you're definitely not the centre of the universe

In a statement from Sec Hegseth, after the shooting of the 2 National Guard soldiers in Washington, D.C., he stated that an additional 500 Guardsman will be added in response. x.com/dowresponse/...

I think there's a decent chance that the Pope visits Chicago during this presidency and while there asks to see Broadview and I wonder how that plays out.

Brutal!

when I was young, i used to wonder how people like this would fare in life, as they didn't seem suited for gainful employment. it turns out, the internet allowed them to accumulate a massive audience of similar idiots, enriching them and turning them into a presidential advisor

“A terrorist state armed with nuclear weapons is now gaining a foothold on our shores, as if we were a vassal state.” - Hon. Dr Brian Walker MLC, speaking about the current US regime in the state parliament of Western Australia on 19/11/25. Have I said how proud I am to work for this man? #Auspol

Remember the stories from this year with The Chaser Annual 2025: chasershop.com/products/the...

So now Australia will be making F35 fighter jet parts for Saudi Arabia. A country that Amnesty says ignores people’s basic human rights, restricts their freedoms and inflicts severe punishment. The regime also kills dissenters. No one even asked us.

I don’t want to seem out of touch but I don’t actually understand the economy anymore.

A special treat for those mutuals who are still reposting AltNPS bullshit

Be really cool if people could provide a link when posting shit like this. Genuinely wanted to read the article. I'd have thought a journalist would be across that

So... who's gonna be the first reporter to ask Trump if he sucked Clinton's dick or not?

Wasn't there a leak awhile ago that his staff play Andrew Lloyd Webber to try and chill him out?

Oh wow @reuters.com got the photo here:

So with the US seemingly about to launch a Special Military Operation in Latin America, has anyone asked our government their position on this? Is intel from Pine Gap being used for any of these drone strikes? Are we condemning the murders at sea? Or calling for calm? #auspol
