Come to think of it he looks like some of the weirdos that used to get out on the dance floor of Kicks at Parramatta leagues. Never forget one night when my sister in law got knocked back for a dance because she was too old.

Mind you the guy was in his sixties, the sister in law mid 20's.....
 
DC police are now under Trump's control, and he's also sending in the National Guard with the military on standby.

Trump is saying that the rising crime rate in DC has caused a crisis which forced his hand. The mayor of DC pointed out that crime rates are the lowest they've been in a long time.
 
And in true TACOnomics - i bring you Vietnam.

- 46% Tariff in April
- Reduced to 20% in July. Why?
- Vietnamese govt agrees with TACO reimbursement plan for farmers displaced by TACO International Golf Course in Hung Yen. And what is that plan?
- Govt will kick the farmers off the fields they have worked for their whole lives and pay them. And the money the govt is paying them?

One farmer will get less than the average annual wage in Vietnam. And this appears to be the going rate.

That dance move at Kicks was simply trying to unstick your shoes from the bourbon infused carpet :-).

It's a bit of a misnomer. The EU has handed over nearly double the US since it started. Plus up until late 2024, most of what was being shipped was the old stuff. Which u can make an argument cost the US a fair bit to maintain and remain viable.

Agree though that if u shake hands with the US, count your fingers.

Ukraine has received nothing more, and under Trump considerably LESS, than they are legally ENTITLED to under the treaty they signed with Russia, the UK and USA with regard to security and border guarantees for giving up their nuclear arsenal they were left with as USSR crumbled. Just another example demonstrating WHY countries should think twice before giving up their nuke/chemical programs because "treaties"...
