The US supports the current military dictatorship and is apparently fine with the former prime minister bring locked up for no reason. And that’s bipartisan policy, most of this happened under Biden.

Not sure if Imran Khan would’ve let things escalate as far as it has (or even would’ve allowed those initial terrorist attacks to happen).

And as for Trump, I don’t have high hopes of him successfully negotiating a peace between 2 nuclear powers that have been at war since the 40s.

Not really their fault, most of the issues are design related.

Yeah, if you think the manhunt on Luigi Mangione was over the top, wait until someone takes a shot at an ICE agent ‘trying to protect the country from illegal immigrants’ or however Trump would frame it.

If anyone wanted to try it, they’d need impeccable opsec, because everyone in law enforcement will be looking for them.

Yep, the lesser Bush and Trump I shows that Democrats are not interested in punishing crimes committed by Republicans.

That’s a great idea. Solves the entire issue in just a few generations.

Probably most of them. Cops routinely arrest people for no reason.

Not after they start taking offence to the books contained within.

I bet he meant that literally and gets his car T-Boned every other week.

The merge with the Microsoft account was never done properly and it means I’ve got like 3 different accounts that don’t fully work with Skype, Teams or whatever else you need Microsoft for.

Good thing I rarely need any of them

Yep, and he’s using that charity money to get influence with research institutions and universities. Meanwhile he privately holds stock in big pharmaceutical and energy companies. Not sure if anyone has done the work to trace the money, but I’m sure his charitable donations end up benefiting those private investments.

So the money he would’ve otherwise paid in taxes went to a vehicle that buys him PR and benefits him financially through his other investments.

At this stage Israel controls the Rafah crossing, so Egypt doesn’t have a way to send stuff in unless they try to force the issue with military involvement.

And obviously they’re dependent on the US for military aid, so if they tried they’d get cut off immediately.

With the amount of followers he’s disappointed, he’ll be dodging bullets from his own followers left and right. The people that have already tried were all followers of his.

It’s kind of weird how he keeps hiring drunks when he’s a teetotaler himself.

Judge Judy would probably be a reasonable justice compared to most others currently there.

One guy with a pistol caused WWI, if countries build up a military for decades they will find a reason to use it eventually.

That’s how they got over Bush II very quickly too.

He’s been giving away his wealth for decades, and only got richer during this time.

Would be great as a local device dedicated to transcoding or running an LLM. Or as a steam machine.

It’s just plain corruption, but I guess they get off on having lots of money?

Yeah, holding the world cup in dictatorships is kind of their thing.
