According to The Telegraph, “A ban on the sale of pointed kitchen knives has been backed by the Church of England, judges, top trauma doctors and psychiatrists, the police and victims as they argue that it would make life-threatening injuries far less likely.”

Made all the more confounding by the fact that the Europeans just stood by and watched, or even applauded, as these people just waltzed into their countries. Now the piper wants to be paid. DT, for all of his negatives, has it right on this one. Those people that the criminal Biden allowed in illegally are being sent either home or to jail. Give him a lot of credit for that.

I still wonder what happened to WG. Seems strange to me for someone to just abandon the field. Hope her health is holding up.
