    A board of peace - after telling the Norwegian prime minister that he’s not committed to peace anymore because he didn’t get the peace price (and no, the PM doesn’t control the peace price)

      Not useless. He’ll now have an additional $1B to steal!

      This is hilarious 🤣 I can’t believe he’s just straight up starting a protection racket!

    Well, that’s one way to start the new Axis powers. The internal fascist structure could be a gamble (usually even other fascist leaders want to have more authority than deference), but I guess we’ll see how it goes.

      Largest army in the world. Currently aligned with Russia.

      The man knows exactly what he’s doing. European countries will pay. This is the biggest grift I’ve ever seen

    Well, after he got a Nobel Peace Prize, it makes sense that he moves onwards towards his next great wish: King Of The World.

    On Friday, the White House presented the composition of “a founding Executive Board”, consisting exclusively of figures loyal to Trump: his Middle East adviser Steve Witkoff, his son-in-law Jared Kushner, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and former UK prime minister Tony Blair.

    It’s astonishing how often Tony Blair manages to find new ways to be a massive fucking disappointment. It’s like he’s already concluded that he’s going to hell for the whole Iraq thing so he’d may as well lean into it by being a huge cunt while he’s alive.

      I thought the same thing. I mean the whole Iraq thing could be seen as a misjudgement in hindsight. Now though he just looks evil.

    The stupid thing about this is the US already has a disproportionate amount of influence in the UN. Greed is something that can’t ever be satisfied.

    So a protection racket, in other words.

    Setup by the dollar store godfather wannabe

    Ever since trump got elected, the news has been either bizarre, devastating, hilarious, insane, removed, cringe, maddening…

    Every pro Trumper I know also has a deep fear of the UN or some shadowy organisation controlling the world. Every conversation ended up with “Well at least he will take back power from the elites”. Now Trump declares he wants to rule the world, and outlines their exact fears as his plan and they are silent. No comment. Why are people so stupid? And pathetically so. It not even hard to see how ridiculous this guy is, but people are still bowing down to it.
