    You mean the person who had an American citizen chopped up, and then brushed aside by the US Gov? Can’t imagine why they think they can get away with anything. They have such a good track record!

      …and then brushed aside by the US Gov?

      Hey now, Trump touched the sacred Saudi orb. After that it was hopeless to do anything about the atrocities committed by the House of Saud.

    So glad we’re allies with the worst people of humanity

      “We”. The American goverment doesn’t have anything close to the consent of the governed anymore. It’s literally a plutocracy now - it wasn’t all at once on any specific date, but our votes haven’t mattered since 2000 (at least) and our dollars haven’t mattered since 2008 (at least).

      Practically nobody in America wants to be allied with Saudi Arabia except for the people they’ve bribed.

        Got to agree with ya here. All price reductions now are through apps now. On the plus side it makes it easier for me to draw the line of what businesses to use but I feel like there is not enough resistance and my options will drop to zero.

    Wonder where they got all that data. Elon, any ideas? Who bought a bunch of Twitter recently again?
