And yet Trump and co are smashing it apart cos they think it works against the US, not cos it's too imperialist.
Maybe all the meddling gets too complicated and counterproductive - you end up funding some terrorist group that turns into your biggest enemy.

Trump is changing the strategy from one that tries to head every problem off at the pass to just dealing with the big ticket problems e.g. Gaza and adopting a defensive posture under a defensive dome the rest of the time.

Maybe... or maybe you just made up some utter gash to justify Trump somehow sitting on both sides of the argument and losing twice.

Trump mm’s from a head shot was that an act of God according to @mixed_biscuits faith principles

”yes! because God is lovely and y’all are too scared to pray to The Lord”

I know you’re saying y’all to yourself every opportunity, feeding The Rapture @mixed_biscuits , fyi “too scared of God” is an old trick from noncey confessional booths

one thing i have noticed is that all the west africans who were the only people delivering food i think have disappeared since the ICE raids started, ie in the last two weeks, or at least i haven't seen any and they used to be everywhere

Never have so many hands been caught in so many tills. It's clearly the greatest fraud ever detected, one that has perverted the course of history for at least 3 decades.

A whole constellation of idea could only survive and propagate with massive laundering of us taxpayer money. It's likely been the arrangement in other western countries, our own Comintern.

Canada's foreign aid agency just deleted their own public database of foreign aid spending. What is the UK equivalent?

The world is going to get a lot better, very quickly.

I mean if a dickless fourteen year old who used to get beaten up by nerds says so then who are we - or indeed anyone - to question it in any way whatsoever.

I'm talking about doge not HMG just in case there was any confusion.

I mean Musk and his virgin army have got their collective proboscis buried deep into the US financial brain so if there any crimes we should see some arrests you'd think, but as so far all we've got is Trump confusing money spent by wonks on subscriptions to news agencies with a sinister plot to control the media I'm not that hopeful. I reckon we'll get lots of noise about corruption and lots of trumpoids slurping that up and frigging themselves stupid, but I've got a tiny suspicion that once again there will be nothing concrete.

Maybe there is corruption, I've obviously no idea, but until there's something concrete I will take Trump tweeting "Oooh oooh it's so corrupt" with a pinch or two of salt. What do you reckon, will it amount to more than that or be another damp squib?

It appears to be the wholesale dismantling of a global propaganda network, the defunding of fifth columnists and anti-democratic elements. The ocean we've all been swimming in for decades, pretty big and highly effective for as long as the money taps were turned on.

Couldn't agree more, the misappropriation of funds is clearly rife

I think I've said earlier on here, those with a "hawk-ish" outlook would view this as a mis-step from a supposed world power, and it will relinquish a lot of power bases indirectly. Whether that's the intention or not, who knows, but greasing the wheels is the way a lot of industry goes. I would assume our resident NGO lawyer would be able to confirm one way or another

Meanwhile China continues to pump away

It's a strange tack from the eternally colonial America

That's what the people who would say that are saying. I need some independent confirmation as @vershy versh hinted at a few days ago.

In fact I'd be staggered if there was no corruption, but I'd be staggered if everything was corrupt and Musk's pronouncements that merely highlight his lack of understanding are not convincing anyone except those who long to believe.
