Australia on the other hand has just sent out its former Prime Minister to let it be known that the UK has fucked everything up.

The Aussies are out because it's threatening the implementation of the AUKUS security pact. Part of the agreement is that Australia is buying new subs from the UK that incorporate US technology. If the US pulls out, Aus will have spent a significant amount of money for nothing.

Isn't that one of the give-aways that someone is a britbong? Using plural for companies or groups...

No. It's a giveaway that someone is prone to hypercorrection, however.

 

[Bob's Fuckass Head]

Sorry, incorrect. 'Group' is singular, therefore the third person singular 'is' is correct.

Cougar'd but this is correct, because the given example was using "us" as the object of the preposition "of." It isn't the subject of a verb, so the verb isn't supposed to agree with it.

More on-topic, Vance is a pretty damn good orator. I really appreciate his style, even if I think Tommy J's supreme passive-aggression is more entertaining.

Spoiler: Jefferson's Letter to the Regent of Tripoli

Background: Jefferson had just been elected President, running on a platform of "millions in defense before a cent in tribute." Naturally the ruler of the Barbary state of Tripoli decides it's a good time to try to extract a massive tribute (~$250,000 in addition to prior existing demands) from the incoming U.S. President. In response, a large detachment of the brand new United States Navy was sent to ensure the safety of American merchant shipping in north African waters. This conveniently doubled as America's explanation of exactly why it would not be paying the requested tribute. The text of the letter with additional background and footnotes is here (a).

To Yusuf Qaramanli,​

Pasha and Bey of Tripoli​

May 21. 1801.
Great & respected friend.
The assurances of friendship which our Consul has given you, & of our sincere desire to cultivate peace & commerce with your subjects, are faithful expressions of our dispositions, and you will continue to find proofs of them in all those acts of respect & friendly intercourse which are due between nations standing as we do in the relations of peace & amity with each other. At the conclusion of our treaty with you we endeavored to prove ourselves contented with it by such demonstrations as were then satisfactory to you; and we are disposed to believe that in rendering into another language those expressions in your lre* of the 25th. of May last which seem to imply expectations inconsistent with the faith of that transaction your intentions have been misconstrued.—on this supposition we renew to you sincerely assurances of our constant friendship and that our desire to cultivate peace & commerce with you continues firm & unabated.

We have found it expedient to detach a squadron of observation into the Mediterranean sea, to superintend the safety of our commerce there & to exercise our seamen in nautical duties. we recommend them to your hospitality and good offices should occasion require their resorting to your harbours. we hope that their appearance will give umbrage to no power for, while we mean to rest the safety of our commerce on the resources of our own strength & bravery in every sea, we have yet given them in strict command to conduct themselves towards all friendly powers with the most perfect respect & good order it being the first object of our sollicitude to cherish peace & friendship with all nations with whom it can be held on terms of equality & reciprocity.
I pray God very great and respected friend that he may have you always in his holy keeping.

They really don't understand that the taxpayers are not opposed to their taxes being used to make the country look great. Do we need to pay 20% more so the new federal courthouse looks like a Marble encrusted temple of Justice and Wisdom, covered in drip and art? Or pay less so it looks like a commie block dropped from space by aliens?

I think this is the huge disconnect. I want the court house I go into to fight Officer Faggot's traffic citation to be absolutely covered in drip. I want to be greeted by a marble statue of my counties most favored son while life sized portraits of dead judges hang on the walls seemingly looking more accusingly at the asshole on the bench instead of me. If that means Granpa gets 1% less on Social Security payments this month, FINE! Lets do it!

Art is not without function. the goal of art is to inspire if in the most important institutions of our country we inspire nothing we allow in everything. You can't have country that believes solely in well balanced finance.

Trumps in the beast as the pace car.

That's Trump responding on the radio, he sounds weird because NASCAR radios suck for audio quality.

Can Trump repeal restrictor plates next? Fuck it, kill the yellow line while he's at it.

 

[Left Ass Cheek]

She was on MadTV years ago. Fun factoid for KF people but she was on an episode of Stayte of Mind with David Stay (RIP). If I remember correctly they briefly worked together at some point and he got her on his podcast and ended up talking to her about giants and aliens. I have no idea if it's still up but it was funny to listen to cuz she didnt know what she was getting into and wasn't enjoying the conspiracies

Oh my god you weren't joking, the full thing has to be out there.

Apologies if this has been posted before, but recently noticed Trump put his mugshot just by the Oval Office’s entrance.

Absolute Gigachad move.

In which case the very next day President Trump goes to Congress and requests a Declaration of War on Mauritius.

Imagine if World War 3 starts, not because of ziggers and cuckrainians, but because of a retarded bong that couldn't leave well enough alone in the name of "decolonization" and diversity.

My Chinese friend said that Trump is a Mao and Vance is a Deng, he means in terms of their demeanor and disposition not their politics obviously.

It will be crazy once society realizes that gays are only created by grooming and that the amount of gays is actually a tracker of how rapey gays were that year.

Maybe then we will realize all the parasites they spread to humans.

 

[not william stenchever]

The next step will be the United States of America telling the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland we will MAKE you knock it the fuck off. And after we are done making you do what we command, the King himself will make a speech thanking us for doing it.

Then of course there is the sleeper issue.

*EDIT*
Starmer may very well go ahead with transferring the Islands to Mauritius anyway even in the face of American opposition. In which case the very next day President Trump goes to Congress and requests a Declaration of War on Mauritius.

It cannot be stated hard enough. Mauritius is not going to the get the Chagos Islands. There is no future where this is going to happen.

We should threaten to put Harry on the Throne if they go through with it. Equal exchange. Retarded for Retarded. As a bonus they could use the Queen's coffin spinning as a source of renewable energy and we'd be sadly (lol) forced to revoke the citizenship of Harry's bitch whore wife.

Imagine if World War 3 starts, not because of ziggers and cuckrainians, but because of a retarded bong that couldn't leave well enough alone in the name of "decolonization" and diversity.

It probably won't get THAT bad, but I suppose any war is bad. And it cannot be stated enough that if the USA has to go to war to keep Diego Garcia, the USA will go to war. I hope the Bongs have at least been told this privately. This is a non negotiable position. The Chagos Islands are essentially American anyway. The UK's sovreignty over them is a fig leaf. The only population ON the Islands are American soldiers with a few Bong advisors. The UK hasn't even bothered with assigning a ceremonial governor general title for the Islands. Because there are no UK citizens on it.

Or Mauritian citizens for that matter. The USA has "allowed" the UK to pretend to "run" the Islands out of respect. But this respect is based on the reciprocal understanding that the UK can't just unilaterally hand over a critical US base to the Chicoms.

Comrade Kier should have known better, and should be grateful that the USA has not, YET decided to escalate this situation into a full diplomatic crisis. But oh dear lord is it coming boys.

Trump is possessed by the spirit of Dale.

I'm sure the Left are praying every day that Trump shares Mao's attitude towards food production and distribution so that they can finally get their egg price win.

They came specifically because they felt they had a connection? Jesus tapdancing Christ. Muh fee-fees strike again.

 

[Amelia Troonheart]

and that the amount of gays is actually a tracker of how rapey gays were that year.

Hasn't the rates of exclusive homosexuals stayed about the same over time since we started tracking it?
I'm not including bisexuals or trannies here, only exclusively gay or lesbian individuals.
I know I had looked it up once to see if changed or had spikes like trannies do, or was predominantly young girls (an indicator of social contagion) or even a steady rise over time (which may indicate a developmental disorder like autism etc) but it looked to be steadily something like 1% lesbians and 2% gays as far as I could tell (these weren't the exact rates but I remember male gays being double that of female gays which I found surprising).

 

[Glowing In The Streets]

They came specifically because they felt they had a connection? Jesus tapdancing Christ. Muh fee-fees strike again.

Maybe they felt a connection with Panama too. When ICE told them, its either Algeria or Panama, everyone chose Panama
Maybe they are racists

So we should handle criminals that entered this country illegally By detaining them in our country, which is what they want?
Ironically, them being detained in Panama while their deportation gets sorted out means they’re finally residing in a country legally for the first time. They have a stronger connection to Panama than the United States

 

[mindlessobserver]

Tell me do you feel sympathy for the tapeworm when you have to get it removed? Do you feel all sad when the cockroaches have to be gassed out of your home?

Unironically I do feel bad killing pests like Mice in my home. But they also don't belong in my home. Me feeling like its a shame for killing them is not a viable argument against me doing so. Had they stayed in the fields and forests outside my home, they would be alive. And I don't go out of my way to kill animals unnecessarily. But while I can feel bad for the mouse I kill in my kitchen, I will also not be deterred from doing so. The mouse in my kitchen is an invader. He takes food that is not his. He makes his home in places that are not his, and strips the product of my effort to build for himself an unearned place.

I can understand why he does so. It is natural. But what is also natural is the need for me to kill the mouse. Nature is not about what is fair. Nature is about what is Just. And what is mine is not for the mouse to steal or destroy. I have a moral duty to my home and family to kill the mouse. One that supersedes any right to life the mouse has. I cannot have my children's food be despoiled by his theft, or the diseases he carries be inflicted upon me and mine. Nor can I tolerate him gnawing at the very foundations of my home to bring it to ruin over time. Or worse, siring a massive progeny to multiply the calamity he brings ten fold.

I do feel bad that I had to kill the mouse. But I still killed the mouse.
