The UK “shouldn’t be talking” of giving Donald Trump another state visit in light of the “unacceptable” scenes in the Oval Office, John Swinney has said.  

Scotland’s First Minister also said there needs to be an “honest debate” about taxation in light of the increase to defense spending.

He has called on the offer of a state visit to the UK to be rescinded unless the US president gives “full scale” backing to Ukraine.

His comments come as European leaders discuss the way forward following the angry clash between Mr. Trump and his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelensky in the White House, which was broadcast around the world.

Comment:

These voices are to Continue the Ukraine War, Discuss own taxation, and military spending, for their own countries. 

Got used to US doing all the spending and action and want the deal to continue. 

 Just a thought.

Yak..

Since taking office in January, U.S. President Donald Trump has paused U.S. military aid to Ukraine as well as intelligence-sharing with Kyiv.
He has accused Zelenskiy of not being serious about reaching a peace agreement with Russia, which invaded Ukraine three years ago and has seized about 20% of its territory.
"Ukraine has been seeking peace from the very first second of this war. Realistic proposals are on the table. The key is to move quickly and effectively," Zelenskiy said on social media network X.
Comment:
The Ukraine President was euphoric with the fake support of Europe and the Billions poured by the USA. Biden time is over, a new Sherif is in town, and it's time for peace. Better Like it.  Just a thought.

Thousands of Ukrainian troops who stormed into Russia's Kursk region last summer in a shock incursion are nearly surrounded by Russian forces there, in a major blow to Kyiv which hoped to use its presence there as leverage over Moscow in any peace talks.
Ukraine's situation in Kursk has deteriorated sharply in the last three days, open source maps show, after Russian forces retook territory as part of a gathering counteroffensive that has nearly cut the Ukrainian force in two and separated the main group from its principal supply lines.
The precarious situation for Ukraine comes after Washington suspended its intelligence sharing with Kyiv and raises the possibility that its forces may be forced into a politically awkward and psychologically difficult retreat back into Ukraine, or risk being captured or killed.

Avocado..

After four years of Biden's inaction towards Illegal Immigration, Inflation, food prices, and just continue to pour more money and killing bombs to the War in Ukraine, the Democrats got nothing at this time except Senator Chuck Schumer's Avocado in one hand and a Beer on the other.  Just a thought.

Lanes..

 

During the congestion pricing public participation process, the MTA spent $505 million to install the gantries with charging stations before the general public, elected officials and union leaders were fully heard. 

Many issues remained unresolved, and this situation resulted in lawsuits from Nassau and Rockland counties, objections by the New Jersey governor, the Staten Island borough president among many others. 

Even now, while New York State and the U.S. Department of Transportation enter a litigation phase to resolve their conflicts, the MTA refuses to shut the charging stations.

New York State and New York City have been operating at cross purposes. The city has installed an extensive network of lanes for bicycles and scooters, double exclusive bus lanes, pedestrian islands and outdoor dining sheds that have reduced public street space and created new levels of congestion in the process.

Former Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel suggested that other Democratic mayors shift their focus away from LGBT issues in schools and toward academics.
Emanuel appeared on Real Time with Bill Maher on Saturday, just as current Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson’s approval rating is less than seven percent.
Emanuel advised Johnson, as well as the mayors of New York City and Los Angeles, to prioritize “safe streets, strong schools, and stable finances.”
“We’ve gone through five years where people became way too permissive as a culture,” the mayor said. “I’ll say this about our schools: I don’t want to hear any more about the locker room. I do not want to hear another word about the bathroom. You should start focusing on the classroom.”
The statement drew applause from the studio audience. At the moment, eighth graders have set a nearly 30-year low for reading scores.
