Re: The US Hamster Wheel
If Mexico is paying for this wall what has that got to do with the hoards pouring into the US and taking all the jobs and women?

Nevertheless, you will idiotically salute "Liberty".

Re: The US Hamster Wheel
Nope.
That's why we don't have a statue with that idiotic promise.
Nor do we worship such absurdity.
We can't afford it. Not even at ffrench-promised expense.

I understand that it is the same with Aus and NZ also.

Of course, back when that quote was first spoken, there wasn't really any such thing as immigration control.

Re: The US Hamster Wheel
Back then, white immigration was actively encouraged, both in the US and in Oz.
Exasperating for the true Native peoples of both of those countries, but rampant nevertheless.

No. That's what baseball rules are for. eg Three strikes and you're out.

Jeffrey Gunter (the Chump's 'shoe-in' Ambassador to Iceland) apparently really likes the place so much he had to be coaxed back by Mike Pence after a trip to a White House meeting.

With a crew like that, he could start a pirate ship.
Come to think about it, maybe he has!

And Andrew Porchester as Navigating Officer.
He's ever so good at adding a bit of the honesty look in tv interviews, y'know.

Re: The US Hamster Wheel
He’s at it again
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and other top Republicans shot down President Donald Trump's suggestion to delay the November election until 'people can properly, securely and safely vote.'
Trump does not have the power to delay the election. That would take an act of Congress and even the president's top allies on Capitol Hill made it clear Thursday that would not happen.
McConnell pointed out elections hadn't been delayed in the past and did not need to be now.
Trump heard asking if Robert E Lee base will keep its nameCCTV shows girl, 11, who miraculously survived being hit by carMatt Hancock BANS households in parts of Manchester, Lancashire and Yorkshire from meeting indoorsScottish Conservatives leader Jackson Carlaw QUITS after less than six months on the jobJohn Lewis eulogy: Barack Obama outlines voting rights plan

SKIP AD
'Never in the history of the country through wars, depressions, and the Civil War have we ever not had a federally scheduled election on time. And we'll find a way to do that again this November 3,' McConnell told a local Kentucky television station.
He confirmed he expected the election to take place on November 3. 'That's right. We'll cope with whatever the situation is in the election on November 3 as already scheduled.'
When all else fails, read the instructions.
