Of course, but if you put those few hundred into jail for the night to cool off, the paper will run that you are putting hundreds of Turks into jail, you racist.

Easier to just put in earplugs to ignore it, and pay for driving lessons so your wife can avoid the metro in the evening, but you ignore it for a decade, and now somehow nazis have the vote, and we are afraid of being caught in the crossfire as we already are, facing workplace discrimination and such.

I know it's not an easy problem with a clear solution, but it's a problem.

Xi could cut out the middleman and just buy Congress. They are already privatised.

Best I've got are law reform guns or reform law guns. Take it or leave it.

The KFC needs a machinegun nest, and Dunkin should keep some landmines in those donut trays.

This proves the Vietnam War was illegal, I mean M16 and F4?

Because the world is occupied with the rest of the Russian shitstorm of meddling, just as Sudan is suffering from them in the form of the Wagner-armed RSF.

So here's an immigrant perspective; as an Eastern European in Western Europe I see that the wealthy are using me as a cudgel to keep the locals down. I'm paying quite high rents in a market where a lot of the locals in different careers can't, and there is a housing crisis. The place I'm renting could be where someone's kid would move out to.

And it's partly German neocolonialism that fucked up Eastern Europe, so thank Merkel I'm here, since it's this or the VW factory.

That said, the people who kept the whole literal city awake honking their horns last midnight while waving Turkish flags, or the Moroccan teenagers accosting everyone near my place, including hurling abuse at my Asian or queer neighbours don't scream peaceful coexistence.

Isn't most power consumed by industry rather than residential?

I am saying that if they put the orange turd back in the Oval Office, and let's say New York sentences him to prison, what will happen?

This person is a convicted rapist, fraudster and who knows what else, and he has not seen any consequence. Will he?

So what is he going to do about it?

On Tuesday, after weeks of attacking Orbán online and in public, Magyar released a tape of his ex-wife Varga apparently incriminating members of Orbán’s inner circle in a corruption scandal.

Magyar claims the two-minute recording, taped last year, proves that Orbán’s powerful Cabinet chief Antal Rogán tampered with documents related to a sprawling corruption dispute involving Pál Völner, a former state secretary in the justice ministry when Varga was minister. Völner resigned in 2021 after prosecutors accused him of taking bribes.

The sensational release of the tape — which Magyar presented to the prosecutor’s office in Budapest before a sea of cameras Tuesday — is the latest twist in a drama that has transfixed Hungary and provided a rare moment of dissent against Orbán’s iron grip on the country’s political system.

The EU froze funding for Hungary over undemocratic behaviour, but EU lawmakers say the European Commission released funds anyway, despite no changes in Hungary. The decision will be investigated by the EU's highest court

Unironically, tariffs would help here IMO to bring Ukrainian exports to the price levels set by EU wages.

I'd even tie it directly to wages and lift it if the Ukrainian exporter can prove they pay as much as a Polish company.
