This Australian's reply to Trump's rant about “NATO not being there for America” is perfect.
"Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.
You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.
Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.
And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban in Afghanistan thanked you very much for losing again.
And you're calling Greenland poorly run?
Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no.
'NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years.
And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.
So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your f----- mouth."

This is today's New York Times (NYT). Sunday's edition is very important. American newspapers are now ranking Prime Minister Narendra Modi above Donald Trump in the United States. This is a big deal!
The NYT is amazed at how, amid all the turmoil in the past year, PM Modi has expanded the scope of partnerships by visiting many countries. The newspaper believes that most of the 20+ country visits in 2025-26 were closed-door business meetings. Not only Modi, but more than a dozen heads of state also visited India.
Submarine technology from Germany, student visas from France, and cheap Scotch whisky from Britain—each of the Prime Minister's visits is yielding something for India. The newspaper believes that many countries are now taking the initiative to build relationships with India. Relations with countries like Japan and Australia have strengthened.
France and India are working together in the field of AI. Norway has reiterated its commitment to create 1 million jobs in India. South Korea will build ships in India. A trade agreement has been reached with the European Union. Maritime security has been discussed with New Zealand.
And yes, no one should come and say that all this used to happen before, or that previous Prime Ministers also traveled abroad. Those demanding an account of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's foreign visits should also note that the New York Times, in its analysis, notes that the goals of many top-level meetings in the past were very broad and vague. Now, clear goals, specific targets, and numbers are being set.
Last year, Britain reduced tariffs on Indian clothing. The article also mentions the gift of "Melody" toffees to Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni. Despite the numerous tariffs imposed by the United States, India is standing firm. Despite the Iran war, everything remains normal—so the leadership deserves thanks for this. That's why even the world's largest superpower is discussing it...
*Not a political post. It’s sheer admiration for an able leader.*🙏🙏🙏
@Kalshi Yo fucker...I have 2 voters id on my name and I never voted in last 15 yrs. I dont live in india. Its called data cleansing. You keep importing undocumented aliens and kill your own kind.
When the Muslim population in a country is less than 2%, they are a peace-loving minority that poses no threat to other ethnic groups. United States 1.1%, China 1.8% for example.
When the Muslim population is 2-5%, they begin to push for government authorization to enforce Islamic law in Muslim enclaves, recruiting new members from prisons and the streets, with disturbances occurring in Muslim enclaves. Such countries include: Australia 3.2%, Canada 4.9%, Italy 4.8%.
Denmark 5.4%, Germany 6.7%, United Kingdom 6%, Spain 5.3%, Thailand 5.4%
When the Muslim population reaches 5-10%, major disturbances erupt in Muslim enclaves; they advocate for the introduction of halal foods, ensuring that halal food practitioners are Muslims; they pressure chain supermarkets to label shelves with halal certifications, threatening those who refuse to comply. Such countries include: Denmark 5.4%, Germany 6.7%, United Kingdom 6%, Spain 5.3%, Thailand 5.4%, Philippines 5%, Sweden 7.1%, Switzerland 5.9%, Netherlands 5.5%.
When the Muslim population approaches 10-20%, nationwide riots occur; Muslims issue a series of demands, such as building large mosques in enclaves, granting super-national and super-legal privileges, forcing non-Muslims to follow Muslim customs, and criminalizing "expressions of dissatisfaction with Islam." Such countries include: France 10.8%, India 14.6%, Israel 18.4%, Russia 13%.
When the Muslim population is 20-60%, jihadist militants sporadically massacre non-believers, burning down Christian and Jewish places of worship; other ethnic groups either convert to Islam out of fear of being killed or are killed by Muslims; the country experiences massacres and ongoing terrorist attacks. Such countries include: Ethiopia 33%, Bosnia 50.7%, Chad 55%.
When the Muslim population reaches 60-80%, Islamic law replaces secular law, establishing a theocratic regime that persecutes all other non-believers in the name of the state, massacres Christians, and imposes taxes on non-believers using Islamic law as a weapon. Such countries include: Lebanon 67.8, Albania 60%, Malaysia 63%, Qatar 77.5% (Qatari citizen 100%).
When the Muslim population is 80%-98%, the country lives in daily intimidation, violence, and jihad, carrying out ethnic cleansing and massacres, with the state expelling non-believers. Such countries include: Sudan 96.6%, Bangladesh 90%, Egypt 93%, Indonesia 87%, Iraq 99.6%, Pakistan 97%, Palestine 98%, Syria 90%, Turkey 94%.
When the Muslim population is 98 to 100%, the Islamic people welcome the "House of Islamic Peace." In theory, this should be a time of peace, as everyone is Muslim, living in harmony without internal strife—but in reality, it is nothing like that; peace is not achieved, because in 100% purely Islamic countries, Muslim groups of different sects attack each other, vie to become the leaders of domestic Islamic law, and seek to eliminate other Muslim factions for all sorts of reasons. Such countries include: When the Muslim population is 80%-99%, the country lives in daily intimidation, violence, and jihad, carrying out ethnic cleansing and massacres, with the state expelling non-believers. Such countries include: , Afghanistan 100%, Somalia 99.6%, Yemen 100%. Maldives 99%, Mauritania 99.6%, Morocco 99%, Niger 98.2%, Iran 99.5%
An Exclusive Thread.
1. Bollywood actress Shabana Azmi is extremely active in the CJP protest, and people associated with her also supported CJP.
Read this thread to learn shocking truths you will never find in mainstream media.
This thread also exposes Marxist ideology
BJP high command asked their MPs to make videos on current affairs. Many outsourced it to SM managers.
One man took it on himself and delivering.
@KVishReddy 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
@IndianTechGuide Please this is all normal data. Nothing is happening new in usa which didn't happen in last 10 years. New people comes to usa and some always come back to India.
@EthanLevins2 Where does he spend 70B. Where does he buys weapons ,drones,tech from. Will it be Russia or Europe or USA. Defo not from Africa or Asia. So to whom he is paying those bills.
I hate to be the one to burst the Tesla bubble today, but the spectacular “flight” we witnessed at the Roadster reveal needs a little context. The car is carrying around 250kg of compressed air, plus the weight of the tanks, valves and thrusters needed to contain and release it.
Based on the published figures, that gives it roughly 1.5–2 seconds of maximum thrust before the system needs to be refilled.
In short, it's a gimmick.
I'm not an Elon hater.
I'm just telling you the Honest Truth:
This is a marketing stunt.
The technology is quite old.
Just nobody ever thought of bolting it on a car.
Because it's pointless.
Porsche or Ferrari could also build something like this if they wanted, but they don't, because it's not worth it for them.
It's worth it for Elon though, because his entire brand is all about having the halo of futurism.
His marketing scales especially well with tech gimmicks like this, which is why he is financially incentivised to do them, while others aren't.
Again, I'm not hating, but actually educating yall.
This is not engineering genius.
It's marketing genius.
