        bit idea: “secure the border”, then tell the border patrol to turn around so americans cant get out and now the whole country is a concentration camp. america going back to its roots, one big-ass plantation.

    I’m starting to think journalists watch action shows for their headline vocab:

    BLASTS

    SLAMS

    STRIKES BACK

    Is this the same trade union that blockaded shipments to Pissrael, except for military ones, or am I mixing them up with somebody else?

      If I remember it wasn’t the whole union, just some locals.

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance).

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
