Yes, Biden did it to Trump

Justified in that case as Trump had absconded to Mar-a-Largo with hundreds of boxes of security-sensitive government documents and had instigated an attempt to overthrow the results of the election.

Trump doing it is just tit for tat nonsense. It's incredible that the need to restrict his access and briefings wasn't a bigger story. Besides that illegal sequestering of classified information to his private residence by the box load, his presidency oversaw a massive uptick in killed, captured or disappeared CIA assets, not least in Russia. And that was after he explicitly demanded that information.

Of course it is just tit for tat childish shit and there is nothing I would defend Trump on, but didn’t Biden also have classified stuff at his house?

Plenty of people had classified information that was requested to be returned. Only one person attempted to not to return the information.

It's also emerged that one of Musk's little minions was previously fired from a cyber security company for leaking secrets and Musk has made a point of rehiring the one who resigned over their incredibly racist social media activity being exposed.

Biden probably forgot he had it

Out of all the things to whinge at Trump about, this isn’t one of them , he’s now the boss and fully justified in being vindictive against a senile enemy who had done the same to him.
The don probs had a boner when he signed that ‘you’re fired!’

Trump raged in his order that South Africa’s government is seizing “ethnic minority Afrikaners’ agricultural property without compensation” and enacting “countless government policies designed to dismantle equal opportunity” in employment, education and business.”

I know it's social media and a substantial number of Americans are complete idiots, but saw a woman on Threads wailing about how white South Africans have had their land stolen and aren't even allowed to go to school.

I told her to Google (one of the few names I know, because of the rugby) Paarl Gimasium. I know things are way more complex than this or that, but sounds like many people believe it's like Gaza for Afrikaaners.

This is something we saw a lot from the Johnson and Sunak version of the Tory party. Railing against the establishment while occupying perhaps the highest and most influential part of it.

It' was meaningless contrarian rhetoric anyway considering the conservative sway over the Supreme Court and the numbers of congressmen and senators they have, but they're not going to amend it even having secured the executive branch

Regardless, I do have a few acquaintances that are considering it and one colleague that is leaving end of March. He was afforded the opportunity long before Trump got elected though.

Personally, I can't afford it. Even though this proclamation from the yank president makes it easier, it's still not that cheap. Also having to leave my girls behind to fend for themselves for at least a year, coming home for a few months and then heading back over for another year would break me.

Great opportunity for young single people though. Go, earn ten times you could potentially get here for driving a tractor, learn new/other ways of doing things. Come back with a solid background and enough dollars in your pocket to set you up. I don't see what's wrong with that.

This is real scary stuff and I have no doubt they are serious in their intent. If they get away with this then all the guardrails have been dispensed with and even more dangerous chaos will ensue, exactly what the nutters want! Dont say you weren't warned - they wrote it all down in Project 2025!
