    The whole reason we call them illegal aliens is because they’re subject to our laws.

        You think the collection is motley, you should have a look at its Politiburo. In addition to its “permanent” Chairman it includes the following fellow travellers:

        These are the members of the Executive Board.

        Marco Rubio, U.S. Secretary of State
        Steve Witkoff, U.S. Special Envoy to the Middle East
        Jared Kushner, Trump’s son-in-law
        Sir Tony Blair, former U.K. prime minister
        Marc Rowan, CEO, Apollo
        Ajay Banga, World Bank president
        Robert Gabriel, security advisor

        In the 20th Century there was the COMINTERN. In the 21st …. The Peace Board. Same shit different smell.

        Elbows up!

          For the record, Davos is pretty nice place. Been a few times. Back in the day when skiing was actually an option for my pre damaged knees.

            Invitation to Carney (read: Canada) to join Peace Board withdrawn by tRump on Truth Social:

            https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/trump-board-of-peace-canada-uninvited-carney-letter-9.7057437

            That was easy.

            We weren’t all that keen to join Trump’s COMINTERN anyway. 😆

                Updated list.

                Almost 2/3 Muslim (61%)

                Less than one third proper democracies. (30%)

                    It’s subjective. One could argue it’s between 8-13. Half or less.

                        It makes sense if you try to think like Trump. It keeps him in shaping the world after he leaves office, and probably at a handsome salary and the chance to make mega-deals. As a subsidiary benefit it challenges the UN to be what they should be.

                          I'd be surprised if he lives that long. He does not look or sound healthy.

                            Sir Tony Blair, former U.K. prime minister

                            In light of Trump’s derisive remarks disparaging the combat role of Nato troops played in Afghanistan, it would behoove Sir Tony to resign immediately from Trump’s dubious and self styled Peace entity. I seem to recall that British and Canadian troops were charged with securing and holding the two most active combat zones in the conflict, Helmand province and Kandahar.

                            An immediate summons to No. 10 for Mr. Blair would be appropriate and in order.

                                Denmark I think was second behind the US in terms of deaths per capita in Afghanistan.

                                          Im surprised Trump hasn’t accused Marc Carney of disloyalty after all Trump did to get him elected.
