The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

~The regime was exposed several times for lying about Portland, Oregon this week.

Dem Sen. Ron Wyden shared a video from one of the ICE facilities Trump said was “under siege,” with no protesters in sight. And Trump has been repeatedly slammed by local leaders for lying about the National Guard already being on the ground in Portland—they were not.

In a separate incident, reporters caught the Department of Homeland Security claiming more than 100 people “stormed” a federal building and “assaulted law enforcement.” But local news crews said the demonstration of fewer than 40 people “appeared largely non-violent,” with no proof of a riot.

These lies from the Trump regime are not just outrageous, they’re dangerous. And we’ll never stop calling them out for it.

~Trump was brutally mocked by world leaders at a summit in Copenhagen—for repeatedly mixing up the names of countries, and for claiming to end a conflict that never existed in the first place.

Albania’s Prime Minister was seen joking with French President Emmanuel Macron: “You should make an apology … you didn’t congratulate us on the peace deal that [Trump] made between Albania and Azerbaijan ... [Trump] worked very hard.”

We all know Trump’s brain failures are nothing new, but it’s good to see him ridiculed for them on the world stage.
