Look at this! A rather good looking lady from North Carolina has sparked outrage in Britain!

Is nothing sacred? This is an outage equivalent to the Boston Tea Party! =))

I believe she is resident here in the UK and has adopted sheer irony and provocation! :)

Of interest (to some) is the Clever Horse's prediction on the death toll in the US a while back

"I think we would be substantially, hopefully, below the 100,000 number. I think right now we are heading at probably around 60,000, maybe 65,000," Trump said.

A small percentage error. More an Ass than a horse?

It would appear, according to newly surfaced evidence, that Biden's statement about having nothing to do with Michael Flynn's case is somewhat of a fib.

From the Guardian, our favourite right-wing paper:

“The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the Treasury moved quickly to disburse 160.4m payments worth $269.3bn. The agencies faced difficulties delivering payments to some individuals, and faced additional risks related to making improper payments to ineligible individuals, such as decedents, and fraud.

“For example, according to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration, as of April 30, 2020, almost 1.1 million payments totaling nearly $1.4 billion had gone to decedents.”


Just think how many Hamberders that could have bought.

Just one one of the many ways undocumented aliens get their hands on federal money also.There is great swamp dweller resistance to unify all Federal data bases to one single base from which all agencies can make the same singular reference.

Another Biden, switching feet moment.No wonder the Democrats want to keep him as far away from an camera as they can.

"BET founder Robert Johnson says Dems taking black voters 'for granted,' calls for BLM to form party"

I would bet that this one is a problem for the Democrats to deal with.

OK, this one is interesting if true: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/26/us/p ... nties.html
WASHINGTON — American intelligence officials have concluded that a Russian military intelligence unit secretly offered bounties to Taliban-linked militants for killing coalition forces in Afghanistan — including targeting American troops — amid the peace talks to end the long-running war there, according to officials briefed on the matter.
The article claims that Trump was informed of this three months ago and his only response so far has been to call for Russia to be invited back to the G7. So the message goes out that you can do what you like to US forces, Trump won't take any action against you.

Geography NOT one of the assets of the clever horse?:

"he would stay in Washington DC to “make sure law and order is enforced”

which is why he went to Virginia?

Isn't it about time that the boys (and girls) in the white coats and the nets and straitjackets carted the Orange loon off to the nearest booby hatch?

To coin a phrase - "You can't always get what you want"

https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/prim ... -5qztlzjvs

These poor deluded idiots are set to cause mayhem - if...... (or maybe just 'when')

“If there’s evidence that the vote was rigged and manipulated, I’d consider that grounds for open rebellion,” said Hill, the leader of the Georgia Security Force Three Percenters, a militia group.

Can someone confirm the 'Three Percenters' does not refer to the IQ levels?

PS I hope the Clever Horse does not have the Guardian read to him https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfr ... and-steals

No news of the fate of the person still inside the car.
