A meme I saw this morning claimed that the flu can kill as many soldiers as combat

She is the best

What about those of us that do? We still get lumped in with the rapists regardless

So we are raising the voting age

Yup, normally by now Trump would have declared bankruptcy and would be selling up the assets..... He doesn't get that option here.

How much oil does the United States import (and why)? About 60% of the crude oil that runs through U.S. refineries is extracted right here at home. However, our refineries run on many different types of crude oil, some of which we don’t produce here or can’t economically transport. In those cases, we use imports.

I was just looking into more American oil drilling.

"Re-tooling refineries to process solely U.S. crude oil (light crude) would cost billions — a risky investment that would take decades to permit, construct and eventually pay off."

Please give reasons for people to want America to "win" this war.

Murica first

If I lived in the USA I would be on every march.

Ben Roberts-Smith's fight to clear his name just got more perilous During his years-long battle to clear his name, a separate joint investigation stretching 9,000 kilometres was discreetly transpiring.

Consequences.

This story in Australia has been going on for a while. Accused by the media of war crimes, he sued for defamation and lost. It was ruled it was likely he did commit war crimes. Now he faces charges www.abc.net.au/news/2026-04...

My apologies.

I meant that some people are ok with it.
I recognise of course that there is a vast number of people in the USA who oppose the workings and ideologies of the current administration.
I think of you all daily, hoping that things improve over there.

"White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt also said on Tuesday, US time, that “only the president knows what he will do”."

and somehow people are ok with that idea....

Hear hear

Apart from the footage actually shot on the moon of course

This has happened to me. I ticked a box that my manager didn't like and then we had to have a staff meeting where it became obvious that it had been discussed with other staff and they had decided it was me.

Well to be fair, what Mamdani said were actual promises based on well thought out ideas and plans that he intended to carry out.

No comment on what Trump said.

Iran hits back on social media.

I really don't like anything that starts with the phrase "I don't care who this offends". It make the person sound like a rigid thinking callous person who is incapable of thinking outside of their own little world.

I see it mostly used by MAGA supporters.

After a short trial in which he is sentenced to life in prison

Yeah but they don't have African sounding names

Iranian state media is more believable & more trustworthy than the President of the United States. Think about that. Just think about how fucked up, horrible, bad, & dangerous that is. But the people of the United States elected someone who lies as he breathes. So here we are.
