Except it doesn't for Australia.They now all come by plane instead. I don't know about the other countries, I wouldn't have thought getting into Israel would be very easy.

Who are "they" in this context? People without visas? Where would that be documented?

Its history seems to support this, they built the first airfield in the 1950's.
In fact, it seems the US didnt really have control until after the (British) SBS took control of it in 2001.

The US then held it for about 20 years, and built most of the current infrastructure.
They abandoned at the very start of July 2021, basically handing it back to Afghanistan.

Of course, facts have never really been Trumps strongpoint ...

Wonder if he's surrounded by enough yes men and boot lickers to think, in his cognitively challenged mind that starting a war might be a good distraction from Epstein :(

Wars are good for the economy . . allegedly . . . and probably somehow proved by statistics too.

Maybe playing into the hands of all those rooting tooting shooting gung ho red blooded Americans with a burning desire to prove their God is the biggest and bestest.

Well he does want that Nobel peace prize an awful lot, so much so that the other day he claimed one of the wars he stopped was between Cambodia and Armenia :spin:

There are a few wars between unrelated Countries that he claims to have stopped. There are a couple he had nothing to do with also.

Perhaps if he had concentrated on the one he said he would end in 24hrs would be better instead of giving Putin all the time he needs to continue killing civillians.

Nobel Peace Prize? He needs to dream on.

More curtailing of free speech from the Trump regime

Quote:

Pentagon orders journalists to agree to new reporting rules - or be barred

The move has sparked outrage from journalists' groups, with one calling it "a dangerous step toward government censorship".

Journalists at the Pentagon have been told they could be barred if they gather or report information that officials haven't approved first.

Reporters' access to the iconic building, the headquarters of the US defence department, is also being curtailed.

A memo announcing the changes was sent to reporters on Friday, informing them "information must be approved for public release by an appropriate authorizing official before it is released, even if it is unclassified".

They must sign an agreement agreeing to the new rules or face having their press pass revoked.

Journalists' groups said it was a dangerous move that would seriously restrict their ability to hold defence officials to account.

The National Press Club called it "a direct assault on independent journalism at the very place where independent scrutiny matters most: the US military".

The Society of Professional Journalists said it "would deny the American people the transparency and accountability they deserve".

"This policy reeks of prior restraint - the most egregious violation of press freedom under the First Amendment - and is a dangerous step toward government censorship," it said.

"Attempts to silence the press under the guise of 'security' are part of a disturbing pattern of growing government hostility toward transparency and democratic norms."

The defence department - which recently rebranded itself as the Department of War - said it "remains committed to transparency to promote accountability and public trust".

However, it stated that disclosing information - even if unclassified - without consent was a potential national security risk.

As to why Trump might be doing this:
  • In March, a journalist was accidentally included on a group chat, which included the defence secretary and vice president, discussing plans to attack Houthi rebels in Yemen.
  • A leaked intelligence report suggested that the US's bombing of Iran had only set its nuclear weapon plans back by months.

Okay, if he ever had it, which I sincerely doubt, he's lost it. He's blaming Tylenol (paracetamol in the UK) for the rapid rise in autism - without supporting evidence (there is evidence which shows the opposite). About the only true thing he's said is that there's a 'horrible, horrible crisis' with autism, which admittedly there is.

Let's flag down a cab and head for Real Street, which Republicans aren't familiar with (they can't be, else how did he get in?). Tylenol has been used for decades - surely someone would've spotted it earlier.

However, the untrusting cynic in me is doing a Vimes and saying 'follow the money'. Does he have an alternative...and does it cost more? Does he have a link with big pharma?
