He was stopped from doing greater damage by another Syrian, a delivery driver, who rammed him with his van. -
The formation is irrelevant if he starts Smallbone.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c4g3nrx1dq5o "The US government is trying to bring back nuclear safety employees it fired on Thursday, but is struggling to let them know they should return to work, NBC News has reported. The National Nuclear Security Administration workers were among hundreds of employees in the energy department who received termination letters. An email obtained by NBC said the letters for some NNSA employees "are being rescinded, but we do not have a good way to get in touch with those personnel"."

Who would have thought there was so much corruption in the National Parks Service ?
-
Not so much corruption as Congressionally approved spending from previous Governments that Elon and Donnie disagree with.
-
Playing with a stick of rhubarb ? Then again it would provide a more solid midfield than Smallbone.

Inherited.

Can somebody explain why I am watching this.

Save the game before the match, and if you don't get the result you want reload and try again.
-
Then again, no.

Cue the rise of a new Meyer Lansky ? ( Oh no, I made reference to the Jewish mob. I must be anti-Semitic. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish-American_organized_crime ).

Fucking tech genius......... https://www.404media.co/anyone-can-push-updates-to-the-doge-gov-website-2/ "The doge.gov website that was spun up to track Elon Musk’s cuts to the federal government is insecure and pulls from a database that can be edited by anyone, according to two separate people who found the vulnerability and shared it with 404 Media. One coder added at least two database entries that are visible on the live site and say “this is a joke of a .gov site” and “THESE ‘EXPERTS’ LEFT THEIR DATABASE OPEN -roro.” " https://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/elon-musk-doge-posts-classified-data_n_67ae646de4b0513a8d767112 "Elon Musk’s team at the so-called Department of Government Efficiency has posted classified information about the size and staff of a U.S. intelligence agency on its new website, raising bigger concerns about where Musk’s programmers got this information and what they are doing with it." https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2025/2/14/2303889/-Nope-There-are-no-150-year-olds-on-Social-Security-It-s-COBOL "Reports say that his group at DOGE is made up of fairly young people. What those kids don’t realize is that Social Security uses VERY OLD computers. They’re programmed with an old version of the programming language COBOL. A bit of history. On May 20, 1875 a bunch of countries got together to create the International Bureau of Weight and Measures which established uniform standards of mass and length. Later on, the Bureau established rules for dates as well. The dates standard used a starting date of May 20 1875 to honor the creation of the Bureau. Old versions of COBOL use that date as a baseline. Social Security’s computers use that old version. Dates are stored as the number of days AFTER May 20 1875. So what happens if Social Security doesn’t know a birthdate? That field is empty in its records. Thus that person appears to have a birthday of May 20 1875—about 150 years ago. That’s why the crack team of youngsters Musk uses found 150-year-old people in Social Security getting benefits. It’s all really as simple—and as stupid—as that."

Trump's megalomania has no limits https://time.com/7221538/donald-trump-kennedy-center/ "Over a matter of days, the President dismissed Kennedy Center board members appointed by Joe Biden to six-year terms, named himself the chairman of the governing body, and installed a loyalist, Richard Grenell, as its interim leader. On Wednesday, his total takeover of that institution seemed complete: a board entirely of Trump appointees unanimously made him the chairman, empowered, in effect, to police the artistic choices being made on the de facto national stage."

South Africa fought on the allied side, and Churchill intended to keep the Empire.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/c78xpp3vlkko "The Premier League's rules governing sponsorship deals from the period between 2021 and 2024 are "void and unenforceable", a tribunal has ruled. Last year, an independent arbitration panel found against aspects of the league's Associated Party Transaction regulations (APTs) after a lawsuit instigated by Manchester City." "This decision is a huge blow to the Premier League and effectively it means their APT rules up to November 2024 were unenforceable. Any club who had a case heard under their rules is now in a position where they could launch a damages claim. One source has suggested this could make the Premier League – and effectively therefore its clubs – liable for tens of millions of pounds."

And where was Elon Musk born ?
-
As the public backlash against DOGE gathers momentum, several Republican Senators have come out and supported Musk's crusade against Government spending, "But I will fight to ensure the cuts don't happen in my State".

Trump said at his press conference today that he doesn't know if China is part of BRICS. Perhaps he thinks that the 'C' stands for Chad.

Do you expect all such activists to be wearing t-shirts proclaiming "ISIS European tour 2025" ? -
I think I have my answer. When you have nothing constructive to contribute, post a laughing emoji.
-
Nic, why post a laughing emoji on a post that accurately states 70% of US oil is imported from Canada and Mexico ? Do you have some automatic, sub-concious response to certain posters that leads you to add these without thinking or recognising that you are doing so ?

Also, consider that at the end of this term he will be older than Biden was when his term in office ended.
