It’s a part of the software, which is a classified black box only the US sees into.
More mundanely, because the US has bases and shipyards on both coasts.
US Warships already have access. About 40 passages per year.
Wars are slow
You have to remember that the US is an advanced, enlightened liberal democracy…. By the standards of the late 18th Century. They spent too much time fetishising their founders and never really grew up with the rest of the Western world.
No he hadn’t. Because people who have been disappeared are never seen or heard from again. It’s like claiming someone was murdered, but later recovered.
Being disappeared means one day someone vanishes. No-one knows where they are, what happened to them, or who is responsible. This is not that.
Which is shitty, but not near the level of being disappeared.
People’s whereabouts being uncertain just after detention is simply standard bureaucracy. It certainly doesn’t rise to the level of being disappeared.
No, because they didn’t attempt to disappear him.
Doesn’t look like an XLR. There’s no L, for starters. Some screw sleeve instead.
You might look up what he did to a King who pushed things too far. Or whatever.
One of the major arguments against impeaching Clinton was that it would harm the prestige of the office. The same was used as an argument not to continue prosecution of Nixon. Both were alive at the time.
And the one thing Oliver Cromwell should have taught you all is that when you set clear precedent for what happens when the head of state takes the piss, it doesn’t tend to reoccur.
American politics is built around worshipping the cult of the presidency, and whipping the office holders into shape has been repeatedly rejected on the basis of “harming the dignity of the office”.
Sandringham is one of the King’s private residences. So who he chooses to invite there and how they are received is up to him.
A state visit is commissioned by the government and the King has no choice in who is invited or how they are received.
Why are egg prices high? A Bird flu epidemic that has run since 2022.
Trump’s DOGE fired several key USDA officials working on containing the bird flu outbreak. So that’s directly going to increase egg prices. It’s also going to reduce the efficiency of the only process that’s going to reduce egg prices - getting the bird flu epidemic under control.
To fill the shortfall, eggs would usually be imported from Canada. Trump started a trade war with Canada. Again that’s going to directly increase prices.
The price of eggs can’t be reduced by economic policy, only by agricultural policies. But we also know from his choice of Health Secretary how much Trump values vaccines.
On the other hand, Trump’s economic policies will increase the price of eggs and prolong the effects.
So Trump wandered into a house fire that was already burning, shot himself in the foot, then opened fire on firemen and paramedics attempting to rescue him. And the American consumer is meanwhile trapped upstairs.
Always has been.
They are legally obliged to refuse to carry out illegal orders. “Just following orders” is no defence against war crime charges.
The corruption was a feature, not a bug. The founders of the US were not good dudes.
