Mr J Pie - nail, head, set, match.
Nazi salute from Musk, pardon of 1,600 Capitol rioters. We know what's coming.

Come now, Biden abused the pardons system as well - it all makes a mockery of US Justice.

As for Trump 47 - maybe if a couple of people had known when to retire and call it a day then it might have been a different story.

Biden had to do it. He saw what Putin did to Navalny's defense lawyers and who is Trump's role model?

Biden had to pardon his son who had been CONVICTED on firearms and fraud charges?

Will we see the collapse of US agriculture as the migrants leave? A lot of farmers say they'll never cope without imported labour - just as in France.

More cutting off noses to spite faces. Just shows how little the dipsticks at the top understand what keeps a country going! I particularly enjoyed Bishop Buddes' words at the Washington Service:

Not sure - John Deere and others have been working on autonomous machinery. It won't work for all crops necessarily but certainly will for some.

Mind you, JD are busy near-shoring to Mexico - which may attract 100% tariffs and become even less affordable putting their kit beyond the wallets of the farmers.

TF1 has visited several (large by European standards) farms whose owners say they'll have to shut up shop if The Orange One carries out his threats.

Yes - but that is due to Trump's tariffs targeting subsidised industries in the EU and elsewhere that out-compete US based businesses - not due to labour shortages.

The EU can fight back - buy European, not American. No more green and yellow tractors, for example.
