- Nearly 40,000 protesters descended on Belgium's capital Brussels in a revolt against anti-Covid measures

- The riot left three police officers injured and one demonstrator hurt after a firework exploded in his hand

- Germany is set to follow Austria's example in making vaccinations compulsory amid fourth wave of pandemic

- France is also facing worrying number of cases, with fifth-wave Covid infections rising at an alarming rate

- Violence erupted in Vienna as 10,000 protesters took to the streets after new lockdown was announced

- Dutch protesters also gathered in Amsterdam, The Hague and Breda to demonstrate against measures

- The Netherlands entered a partial lockdown on Saturday, sparking a furious backlash against the government

- Austria on Friday reimposed a full winter lockdown and neighbouring Germany warned it may soon follow suit.

Any voter fraud that may have taken place, is just as likely to have been committed by Trump supporters as those of Biden. After all, Trump has a lot of crazed fanatics in his camp, who would not think twice about doing whatever it takes to get him elected.

And in all this kerfuffle about voter fraud, everyone seems to have forgotten about the -arguably- greater crime of impersonating a president.

The secret is out, Bolton's book backs up the fact Trump held back Ukraine aid for dirt on Biden.



No way Bolton will be called to testify now. That's for sure.

now while some people may be surprised, i am not. Bernie has a strong grass-roots base from last time round and this time round has the benefit of the support of the 'Squad' - who, like it or not, have a very big following among young people(AOC in particular). He has 5m+ individual donors, which is not to be scoffed at. Biden of course, is a terrible candidate, for as much as the establishment DNC tries to prop him up, and the rest of the pack don't have that 'star' power to compete. I think eventually the Socialist wing of the Democrat Party will come to dominate, and i think Bernie Sanders getting the nomination this time round will be the start of it.

It's been a blast of political news stories this weekend about Mueller, Manafort, Cohen and Trump. I have to ask myself "Have we passed the point of speculation?"

Carl Bernstein interview:



All along I was thinking SYNERGY was just a software company!

Is she a robot? Yesterday, watching the news Trump arrived to Texas, as always, Melania

walking behind Trump like a robot. Melania is not a 1st lady but last lady, always walking

behind Trump. Trump criticizing muslims for doing just that.

No shortage of oportunities to expose the biased media for their echo chamber existence. Just watch the "comedienne" Mz. Wolf's tasteless hate speech bashing of some Trump staffers at the whitehouse correspondent's dinner, which the big guy wisely skipped, for the second time, to reve up supporters in Michigan. But if the Korean deals really fly right, after so many US Presidents and other world leaders have failed miserably, it will be instructive to watch the media's babbling on our brilliant President Trump's all pivotal, essential and groundbraking roles. Count the use of the words "but" and "however" followed by a bevy of distortions attempting to minimize his part in it, Pathetic. But it'll only reach it's Zenith if the ueber liberal Nobel Committee deigns to do the right thing, especially after bestowing the prize on our affirmative action POTUS Obama for "potential accomplishments"only. Really pathetic, but so characteristic. V-Aa.

I just came across this article published from Gatestone Institute. Very interesting considering how we are viewed as war monger.



Is the United States Abandoning the Free World?

by Nuhu Othman • October 19, 2016 at 4:00 am

There is great anxiety among Africans who are peace-loving, and who care about democracy and human rights, that after the U.S. presidential election next month, this concern for people who care about democratic values and human rights might stop.

The understanding in Africa now is that the United States is showing signs of feeling over-burdened with taking the lead role in world affairs. But the implication of this abdication is immensely dangerous.

America no longer looks like the country that extended its soft power to Western Europe, in the form of the Marshall Plan, shortly after the Second World War. Was this the same United States that made its hard power felt to rescue the free world and ensure that it remained free? The stabilizing role of the U.S. is needed now more than ever.

We need America's leadership. There is simply no other free country that can adequately provide it, to maintain peace in the continent. Who will be there for us to "talk softly and carry a big stick," where and when it is necessary?




It's weird to come across an article like this after we are accused of meddling the world's affair.

What do you think?

Thanks all for your read and or comments if any.

"Trump caught on tape making crude, s*xually aggressive comments about women"
'I don’t even wait,' he said — and bragged about how he would 'grab them by the p---y.'

Donald Trump bragged about groping, kissing and attempting to have sex with married women — and said he was entitled to do so because he’s a “star” — in a private tape published on Friday that threatens to envelop, if not sink, his candidacy just days before his second presidential debate with Hillary Clinton.
“I don’t even wait,” he boasts, as he talks about groping at women’s genitals.
“And when you’re a star they let you do it,” Trump says to Billy Bush of “Access Hollywood” in a clip from 2005 that was first published by the Washington Post late on Friday. “You can do anything.”
“Whatever you want,” an off-camera voice that appears to be Bush replies.
“Grab them by the pu**y,” Trump says. “You can do anything.”

For it is written: "For YOUR SINS/WRONG DOINGS will SURELY find you out." This is why its so very important that Trump and everyone check their OWN sins/wrong doings BEFORE he/they try to judge and condemn others about their sins/wrong doings. Trump didn't sweep around his OWN front door BEFORE he tried to sweep around Bill Clinton's back door bringing up all Bill's 25 year old past sins and wrong doings of adultery. Bill has repented of his sins before God, but Trump say he has no need to repent or apologize for nothing he says or has done to others or to God.

Now, Trump and his surrogates are trying to do damage control by saying this happened 11 years ago... well Bill's transgressions happened over 20-25 years ago, but Trump still felt a need to bring up all this mess about Bill's adultery to try and win. Fair is fair if Trump can play the game so can others, but we know that's not how Trump works.

People like using the phrase JUDGE NOT" but they tend to forget the rest of this Scripture passages that says, the reason WHY you shouldn't judge or condemn others, if you TOO have past sins and wrong doings and especially, if you have not repented of them.

WRONGFULLY Judging Others Matthew chapter 7: “Do not judge, so that you may not be judged. For with the same judgment you make on others you will be judged, and the measure you give will be the measure you get. Why do you see the speck in your neighbor’s eye, but do not notice the log in your own eye?"

Romans chapter 2:"Therefore you have no excuse, whoever you are, when you judge others; for in passing judgment on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, are doing the very same things. You say,“We know that God’s judgment on those who do such things is in accordance with truth.” Do you think, whoever you are, that when you judge those who do such things and yet you do them yourself, you will escape the judgment of God? Or do you despise the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience? Do you not realize that God’s kindness is meant to lead you to repentance? But by your hard and impenitent heart you are storing up wrath for yourself on the day of wrath, when God’s righteous judgment will be revealed. For he will repay according to each one’s deeds: to those who by patiently doing good seek for glory and honor and immortality, he will give eternal life; while for those who are self-seeking and who obey not the truth but wickedness, there will be wrath and fury. There will be anguish and distress for everyone who does evil, the Jew first and also the Greek, but glory and honor and peace for everyone who does good, the Jew first and also the Greek. For God shows no partiality."

Your vote counts. Baddum TISH.

Referendums have been called on issues as diverse as peace deals, nuclear power, and whether New Zealand should change the national flag.

Colombia held a referendum on a longed-for peace deal in October, with voters rejecting it in a shock result.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan wants Turkey to vote on reinstating the death penalty, backing or scrapping talks on EU membership, and changing the constitution in his favour.

On 4 December Prime Minister Matteo Renzi will ask Italians if they support his plan to cut the number of senators in Italy's upper house by two-thirds, ending its ability to bring down governments.

Switzerland is the "country most likely to" where public votes are concerned, and has already had 12 in 2016. The next is scheduled for 27 November, when people will consider a proposal to phase out nuclear power plants.

Britain's post-war Prime Minister Clement Attlee called them "a device of dictators and demagogues". Recently the UK was asked if we wanted to stay in Europe. The three main political parties - Labour, the Conservatives and the Liberal Democrats - all wanted to stay. 17.4 million people had other ideas.

Democracies are based on electing people who reflect our views to represent our interests. Referendums put the issue back into the hands of the individual voter. My first referendum was in 1991 - to support FW de Klerk in his campaign to end apartheid, yes or no? 85% of registered voters turned out to have their say. The result was a foregone conclusion - everyone, even those who voted no, knew what the answer was going to be, the only question was how close the vote would be. It wasn't. He had the support of 70% of the voting public.

The recent ones, not so easy to call. In fact the polls got them wrong, every time.

So are referendums good? They are certainly one man, one vote, in action. Every time the result shocks government, it underlines how out of touch our leadership has become.

Are they bad? They are expensive. They are divisive and cause lasting resentment. It does give every single numpty around, no matter how misguided in their views an equal say. Are we properly informed, fully aware of the issues and consequences, qualified to have a say?
