When I look up at that rocket and the four astronauts sitting on top of it, I see America at its very best. Our country is deeply divided and we have real challenges. But I'd encourage everyone to watch this launch today and be proud of our country and what we're capable of when we work together.

The hatch is now closed. The Artemis II astronauts are now strapped into their seats and ready for launch.

@doobry I don't think there is any argument to be had. I find him weak and timid and consider that to have informed his choices, which have been ex-post facto reformatted into grand principle, despite the fact US is now using our bases extensively.
You disagree.
That is fine.

All Keir had to do to avoid this damage to relationship with our strongest ally, was to say "of course you can use our bases. They are your planes. You can fly them wherever & do whatever you like with them".
But no; he was frit, now dressed up as tough & principled, & for what?

“All of those countries that can’t get jet fuel because of the Strait of Hormuz, like the United Kingdom, which refused to get involved in the decapitation of Iran, I have a suggestion for you…” - President Donald J. Trump

@doobry @MatthewSix34 @Scaramucci What part of “IF you are announcing your candidacy for President (on April Fool’s Day, no less)” didn’t you understand? IF! BTW, that’s a triple down!

After years of telling everybody else how to run the country and months of deliberation, I have a special announcement:
I’m running for President of the United States in 2028.
I am aware of what happened the last time I worked in the White House.
But I do believe I can help guide this country in the right direction.
Join me and help me heal America.
Mooch 2028 🇺🇸

The Orion spacecraft is basically a high-tech RV, except every wrong turn is 238,900 miles long.

@crematesjay1 @grok @SpursOfficial But Ash Wednesday and Palm Sunday?
Also, what % of Tottenham Fans are Jewish?
English
@doobry @grok @SpursOfficial Think your reading into it too much
I'm reminding the club to be inclusive with all festivals and faiths
Considering this a majority Christian country and the Jewish population in the UK is 0.5%
Wouldn't you agree?

Happy Passover to all our fans celebrating!
Chag Sameach 🤍

@drdave1999 King Charles: Here, let me Knight you. I'll just grab my sword.

Preview of King Charles’ visit to the WH:
Trump: Your mother knew her place. That’s why she always walked behind me at the Palace.
King Charles: You dare not say—
Trump: Prince Andy was talking about her one night on the island. She was quite a broad.

Marco Rubio in 2023 - "No U.S. President should be able to withdraw from NATO without Senate approval. "
Now that Trump is threatening to withdraw from NATO again...
WHERE IS HE? Speak up, Marco!
English
@crematesjay1 @grok @SpursOfficial Ash Wednesday and Palm Sunday? Fucking hell man, you are desperate to call them something, just spit it out.
English
@grok @SpursOfficial So no Ash Wednesday & Palm Sunday...

@doobry I hope I went further & did not simply imply. His fear is not of what Iran may do to us. His constant, mantra like repetition that "we were not involved and are not involved", "we played no part" etc ad nauseam is not for the ears of Iran.
He says that for us or some of us.
Why?
English
@dackers12 @MatthewSix34 @Scaramucci Well we are not at all impressed with you, Donna. A simple, “oops you are right, lol” would have been far more appropriate. What a Karen.
English
@MatthewSix34 @Scaramucci I got it, genius. Thanks for showing your superiority. I’m sure everyone is impressed.
English
@PBTyrrell @Mylovanov Why, Paul? Why should the UK and Australia commit their blood and treasure to a war they were never consulted on? I would love to hear the reasoning behind your assertion!
English
@Mylovanov Starmer is a fool
UK must support US against Iran.
Starmer and Albo are cowards.
English
Q: Trump may pull the US out of NATO. Is Britain’s security relationship with the US changing?
Starmer: NATO is the most effective alliance. Whatever the pressure or noise, I will act in the UK’s interest. This is not our war, but we will deepen ties with Europe.

@doobry Tells me nothing I did not know, but thank you.
Question was not over use of UK bases but whether permission to US to use our bases would land us (our PM) in hot water on basis of what one reader described as "joint enterprise", an English common law doctrine.
Back to the books.

@The73est1Here @TradeChronicle @unusual_whales Tell that to the almost 900 NATO soldiers who died for you when you triggered Article 5 after 9/11!
Ignorant cunt.
English
@TradeChronicle @unusual_whales NATO is useless in general, especially to us
English
BREAKING: Trump says he is absolutely considering withdrawing US from NATO
English
@mikepompeo But should they join a war they had no warning and no say in the planning of?
English
NATO has been a key instrument in securing America's superpower status.
We have every right to insist that our NATO allies pull their weight, but should always remember the principal reason we've invested so heavily in the alliance to begin with: advancing our own interests.
English
@sergeantdixie @Mr_Andrew_Fox @robert_lyman Lack of knowledge of what exactly? The US and its cluster fuck of an electoral system? I think the current incumbent of the White House is pretty good evidence of that!
English
@doobry @Mr_Andrew_Fox @robert_lyman I try not to assume. But it does explain your lack of knowledge. Have a nice day.
English
This is throwing the baby outwith the bath water Andrew. We mustn’t do anything like this until and unless we have all the requisite capabilities to replace those we are asking the US to remove. Its is also tantamount to a rejection of the core principle of NATO, and expecting an immature, multi-polar Europe do what NATO currently does. We may not agree with US strategy, but it’s theirs nevertheless.
Andrew Fox@Mr_Andrew_Fox
The correct answer is to follow France, Spain and Italy’s example in regard to use of airspace, and issue notice on Lakenheath, Mildenhall, etc. It is time to take the Americans at their word. We cannot entrust any part of our defences to the USA.
English
@jpinto37 @robert_lyman I think they could given their air power. But thankfully we’ll never need to find out.
English
@doobry @robert_lyman IMHO
NATO couldn’t defeat Ukraine either without France going nuclear.

@josephUSA01 @MOSSADil @Keir_Starmer His actions? Did he start this war? No, your pedo in chief did. Shut up.
English
@MOSSADil @Keir_Starmer has decided not to be a US ally so he is a big boy and he can live with the consequences of his actions. From an American’s point of view, he can go FUCK HIMSELF
