Donald Trump Jr., the president’s eldest son, drew a wave of online ridicule after complaining that Democrats want to make Ohio a state.

Trump Jr. made the remark Monday while actually in the Buckeye State to campaign for Republican candidates.

Trump said he could have won the Vietnam war in a week by targeting Ho Chi Minh city (Saigon) :o
Well that probably would have done the trick. :D  :D  :D
Saved a lot of lives. ;)

He could probably end the Ukraine/ Russian war by bombing Kiev. ;)

It is an absolute disgrace for the draft dodger to denigrate veterans with his ignorant, narcissistic  claims about winning wars and then there’s his stolen valour AI images.  Apart from his confusion over history and geography, he has no grasp of military doctrine or strategy.  Despite that, he has won the war with Iran more times than anybody has ever seen before.

Then there’s his most recent narcissistic, if slightly tongue in cheek, announcement suggesting that the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool becomes the Trump Reflecting Pool.

In fact, that’s probably not such an outlandish proposal; the Reflecting Pool is shallow, it leaks, turns funny colours, fills up with rubbish, and costs millions to maintain.

It is interesting to watch his electioneering appearances.  There is still some moronic applause for his inane comments but it is noticeable that disbelief and/or stunned silence has become a common response.

To quote George Santyana, "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it."
Sad that the 'leader of the free world' cannot even recall which side his people were fighting for.

Rebecca Henderson is on the wireless this morning and we’ve neglected to mention that she set a world record in the Marathon race walk in October 2026 in Takahata, Japan, with 3:14:52.

It is a new event but that doesn’t diminish Rebecca’s achievement.

Here we go...not sure it's accessible to all (let me know)

Charlotte's brother Paul and sister Emmanuella are no slouches either, and both won their respective 100/200 doubles at the school championships.

One noticeable aspect of her run on the weekend was that Charlotte seemed to tire a bit and lost a little form towards the end of the race. Lot's of room for improvement.

 On a more positive note I posted about this young lass earlier in the year

Charlotte Ehioghae


She continues to improve, and is now running times close to our fastest ever 200m women.

There is some vision of this latest race and I'll post it up when I can access it.

In Italy, they tell Pierino jokes, similar nature, young boy who is a smart ass and has all the answers just like Johnny. Only difference, they tell them in any setting and they can be quite blue. I'll never forget an Italian comedian told one in public at the very first Lygon Street Festa that was very blue and I recall all the older Italians hear pissing themselves laughing.

I imagine that most countries have their little Johnny or Pierino jokes. 

There’s one about little Johnny volunteering to use “contagious” in a sentence …
That one is gold
