    Be careful what you wish for. If Trump carcks it, or they invoke the 25th Amendment, Vance will be Acting President until January 2029. It will be a case of the puppetiers stringing up a new puppet.

    One of the reasons for granting bail was that it is going to takwe a very long time to bring these charges before a court. There is no likelihood that he will commit further offences whilst free on bail, so community safety is not endangered. The only condition that I see as not being useful is the reporting three times per week to police. That is supposed to restrict his movement from the local area of his residence. As one who was able to set bail conditions, I always felt that this was an onerous condition. Once a week is sufficient if the condition is required.

    I don't think the fact of being American by birth had much to do with Pope Leo's election, although we will never know of the points made in his favour during enclave. I suppose that if Trump hadn't created the situation withevery other country, Pope Leo would have not had the need to be saying what he has been saying. What I love is that Pope Leo never names names. He leaves it up to us to infer of whom he is speaking.

    Is it un-Catholic to pray that someone would drop dead?

    The indigenous people of Victoria seem to be the most aggressive people in relation to demanding rrights based on cultural claims. Is that their interpretaion of "reconcilliation"?

    I always enjoy a good pun. Puns are the heart and soul of English comedy.

    Apparently the vote has been officially declared and the result will not change. The total number of ballots (about 70????) is said to be insufficiant to change to result. The recount is more or less a debrief session for the Electoral Commission to see what went wrong.

    I wonder if inflation actually is an insurmountable problem for the average citizen - the peasant, or if you like, the people like us. It's for sure that things that are imported, the 21st Century consumer goods, would become too expensive, but food can still be produced and bartered for. Things would be really tough, but life would go on as it has done through the many periods of adversity these people have gone through throughout the millenia.

    We will sill need a doctor to sew up our wounds and set our bones. We will need teachers to show our children how to read and count. We will need plumbers to clear our blockes drains and sparkies to wire in our fuse boxes. Every new technology displaces those who performed the activity the is displaced. Humanity always finds something new to do that the technology hasn't caught up with. We are not looking at disaster. We are seeing new opportunities.

    Is it all about nulear capability, or is that the magician's diversion from the real reason - profiting from the oil that the USA has under its own land? This video raises that question. The presenter is pretty level-headed and fair. I suggest that you hear what he says and then form your opinion one way or the other. The idea presented heremakes more sense, based on what we know of the economic behaviour of the USA for over 100 years, than political or military security reasons.

    Yep. Those boundaries are arbitrary at best, but at least they give us a rough idea of where climate types change. Not much in nature is clear cut.

    How come, if someone posts a topic tht is not related to politics, the follow-up always seems to fly into politics? Prhaps I should have included in the original post an allegation that the mites were introduced to Australia by the CIA on the orders of Trump.
