What's happening with Trump's border wall ? I don't hear about it these days.

A significant part of the wall's path is in Texas and most Texas land is privately owned.  Court cases attempting to secure the land for the wall that started during Taco's first presidency weren't resolved.  Apart from that, there are practical, financial and logistical barriers to construction. The White House seems a little coy about providing facts but the Texas Facilities Commission reported that it had completed 66.4 miles of wall and it's believed that the US Government has finished around 140 miles.  That's for a 1,254 mile border in Texas and the Texas Government has quietly defunded their works.

Of course, there are "smart walls" and water barriers in addition to physical walls; the Rio Grande makes up around two thirds of the border.  Taco is claiming that the wall, whatever that is, will be completed in late 2029. 

Bottom line; no-one really knows what's going on   :-\

Yes, that's the impression I got as well, or if they do know, they're not giving much away.

There is no statute of limitations on murder in Minnesota.
There will probably come a time when the case is tested in the courtroom.

The video is confronting!  You can see the other officers’ WTF reactions.

Trump's plans to acquire Greenland are disturbing for Australia imho.Denmark has been a good ally, had a long-term military relationship buying USA equipment and producing fighter aircraft parts for them. It shows Trump cares little for past allegiances and is happy to throw the Danes loyalty out the window to achieve his goals and any country relying on the USA for help in a military crisis should re think it's future. If NATO collapses due to Trump taking Greenland then Putin will reshape Europe and in turn the rest of the world.

Trump is apparently offering Greenlanders 10,000 to 100,000 to switch the country to the USA
If I was a Greenlander and he made it a million I'd do it in a heart-beat.  ;D


Then I'd move to Canada ;)  :D

Apparently Greenlanders are voting on whether or not to change its name to 'Epstein Island' and then Donald won't want to talk about them ever again.
This is now the longest premiership drought in the history of the Carlton Football Club - more evidence of climate change?

I reckon there are a few USA states that would be looking to be part of Canada.

RedTrump is a loudmouth fluffernutter, he can't even roll out the National Guard in his own backyard without it being defeated. He'll talk big but the actions won't match the words, there are too many in his immediate political circle that have too much to lose.

Don't confuse bullying Venezuela's crooks who were already skimming from the USA, with the USA having a genuine crack at a Sovereign nation.

Inflation says no.

If RedTrump went ahead with this inflation in the USA and Greenland would go through the roof, immediately the $1M would be worth next to nothing. It's the fundamental problem with unrestrained capitalism and it would be put on steroids by adding 100k overnight millionaires to USA economy at the expense of US citizens.

In any case, whatever value remained they would lose almost immediately it in fees, taxes and duties. Can you imagine Greenlandic natives suddenly losing Danish Health benefits and welfare to be left at the mercy of the privatised US Health and Social Services system, what's the fee for a call out to Greenland?

Inflation, gets you every time!

I'm converting it to Aussie dollars and it's going straight into my Cayman islands bank account :D

Milwaukee Bucks NBA coach Doc Rivers made a powerful statement about the fatal shooting of Renee Good and the overt racism of the current administration.

Rivers said that when he was growing up, the POTUS was always a role model, but being a bully and always lying has a negative affect on kids today.

And the oil companies have said, “Thanks, but no thanks!” to Taco’s Venezuela proposal 🙄

Trump to Iranian Protestors..."Help is on the way"

No it's not.
Probably a good decision...but the Iranian protestors now know, what most of the world knows.
That the "flip-flop" man cant be relied on when the chips are down.
