Sorry Cynth , honestly know nothing about or even heard of these cases. But will have a look on the internet.

[marron]

Why  bother seeker? Once a criminal, always a criminal - I presume you hold yourself to the same standard and are incapable of change!

[Carns]

Gee, what a surprise!

he's draining the swamp.

 

I'm sure Roger Stone has achieved this commuted sentence by hard work.

I can’t tell you how angry this makes me. Open plain sight corruption. The US in three short years have become completely desensitised.

It's a mark of this administration that this latest action is a surprise to absolutely no-one. As soon as Stone was convicted it was simply a matter of how long until he was let off.

But , but.......I thought the Trumpster was accused of being a Muslim hating Islamaphobe by the Lefties.

 Last I checked the Saudis are Muslims.

Depends which way the wind is blowing for the Lefties.

A little education. For your Information it’s not “trendoid” it’s psychology. Basic psychology but nonetheless psychology.

Last week I read an article on it that disputed it completely - the idea stemmed from some local shooting their mouth off but all the news ran with it.

I did read a suggestion that this is happening in prisons though.

I went to Hong Kong for the first time a few years ago, glad I managed to fit it in as not sure I would want to go back now. It was in a lull between protests when I was there and you could sense a tense vibe. Hong Kong is now a city like any other on mainland China.

 It is terrible what they are doing to the Uighurs in Xinjang province in the far west of China, in the news every now and again but not much - concentration camps / forced labor camps, 'reeducation programs' to ensure they conform and birth control to suppress the population, some would go so far as to suggest ethnic cleansing. No one really knows as so secretive, you can bet it is bad though.

Expect more posturing in the South China Sea, more air bases on man made isands on reefs far from the Chinese mainland. I have seen some territorial claim maps that nearly takes the Chinese border to ******* Singapore!

Australia will suck back up the China and ignore all of the above and covid eventually and those groups in control of minerals and agricultural land will continue to flog it off. I wonder how much of Australia China really owns right now.
