And we have the second day, of Iranian protests. The Iranian leadership is probably blaming Trump for this. 
And another rip between the US and UK. 
And I might need to âfact checkâ, this BBC news story.
Yet this certainly sounds like the fulfillment of Trumpâs âAmerica firstâ campaign promises, e.g.,:
âŠâOver the last year weâve had the US pullout from Syria, the statement by Donald Trump on Iraq where he said Nato should take over and do more in the Middle East," Wallace said.
âŠWallace also revealed that the Trump administration had threatened to cut off its intelligence sharing partnership with the UK, if Johnsonâs government pursued its plan to allow the Chinese telecoms company Huawei a role in Britainâs 5G network.
So, is that actually bad, or good?
Jesus is the Savior of the World but since WW2 we thought we were and our allies were happy to accept our free help, now the party is over and the guests have to pay their fair share.
If we get a guy like Obama in they will be back with their hands out.

I doubt itâs âgoodâ to weaken or destroy our alliances with nations who have faithfully shed their blood alongside us in the cause of freedom, while kissing up to thugs like Putin, Kim Jong Un or Erdogan who threaten our historic allies. Trumpâs promises on Iran, N Korea & China keep failing without strong allies
There are no America-first Democrats even in the running at this point. Obama apologized for greatness in America, and the current crop have gone soooooo far in their contempt for the USA, their contempt for those that produce, their hero-worship of totalitarians and communists, their money-grabbing distributivism - we cannot afford to let one of them win. They would be apologizing to the world, trying to turn our country âgreenâ while ruining the country and having no effect on the Sunâs climate; distributing our wealth at their whim - ah well we know these things.
But Trump? Heâs worse that that?? On the contrary, heâs what we need to flourish.
Do we want a new president that will approve any, most or all of the following? The Left sez yes, and is already doing them. This is what we will be in for if we let the Left - which includes all the present Dem candidates - take over the country.
Our election lets each person nicely reveal if she feels Trump is what now makes her life âflourish.â
I beg to differ!
But it looks like the Canadian prime minister, is mad at Iran.
And Dr. Who last night was very good.
Let me quote a bit.
This week might just raise the bar to its highest. Orphan 55 is not exactly subtle about its climate crisis message, but writer Ed Hime has a blast getting there, with a zingy script about an apocalyptic future Earth brought low by âglobal warming, the food chain collapses, mass migration and warâ and populated by horrific, fanged mutants known as the Dregs.
Could the Dregs really be zombies from Z-Hell (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)? And we might potentially be at fault, by ignoring climate change warnings?
In the pre-series publicity, we got a look at some pretty terrifying monsters. The Dregs prove a triumph in both concept and prosthetic execution, plus that scene with the transporter vessel is sure to go down in scarelore
And hereâs a bit more.
Let me quote a bit:
The Doctor, Yaz, and Graham discover a rusted Russian sign meaning that Orphan 55 is actually Earth, devastated by global climate change and nuclear war.
Back in the TARDIS, the group despairs of Earthâs future, but the Doctor reminds them it is only a possibility; humanity can make a positive change or accept their fate like the Dregs.
Well, thatâs good news folks. If the Dregs or zombies from Z-Hell (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9), are due to us ignoring climate change and nucluar disaster. . And the worst is only a possibility. Well, we can then stop this from happening.
" After the Iranian regime first denied and then finally admitted that it had shot down a Ukrainian passenger plane killing all 176 people aboard, protests broke out against the government in Tehran as well as in other Iranian cities. As many as tens of thousands of Iranian people are said to be involved. Protesters are risking their lives denouncing the government, including Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iranâs supreme leader.
âKhamenei is a murderer!â some protesters exclaimed. Others shouted slogans such as âDeath to liars!â, âDeath to the dictator!â, and âYou have no shame!â Whatever national unity there was in the immediate aftermath of the American killing of Maj. Gen. Qassim Soleimani is now gone**. Indeed, protesters were seen ripping up pictures of Soleimani. Even some hardline conservatives in Iran, who generally support the regime, were critical of how the government had handled the downing of the plane**."
But the left doesnât believe in elections, they believe in grabbing power any way they can.
I think the Left is fine with elections, as long as they can choose to ignore the constitution. They actually want popular vote to decide: iow, West coast and East coast big cities would be all they would need.
Plus HEY - we HAD an election. Theyâre so pissed that theyâve been trying to overturn it - a finger in the eye of the American electorate.
The Left does not determine what I believe or what we will do.
Silly things the left and right think do not erase what this seeks to affirm.
Bob to Steve.
I fully agree. For me, ONLY the BBC news and the supermarket tabloids, determine what I believe politically and scientifically.
and the last Zombie you happened to speak to.

It looks like the Democrats, are fighting among themselves.
Oh, my gosh! Did I just use a cuss word - AKA Democrat?
And hereâs a story, about âmoderateâ Muslims.
And Trump is attacking Apple.
I still say if I ever entered politics (or became part of the Royal Family), Iâll be like this Middle Ages - son of a king.
Whatâs up with Trumpâs âgood buddyâ?
And on a different front.
12 yrs old? Gads.
