The American comedian Chris Rock broadcast a live comedy set on Netflix in the early hours of this morning and, among other things, he said that Meghan Markle was wrong to tell Oprah Winfrey that it was ‘racist’ of a member of the Royal Family to inquire about the skin colour of her and Harry’s baby before it was born. MailOnline has more.
Comedian Chris Rock slammed Meghan Markle in his new stand-up special Saturday night for her now infamous interview with Oprah Winfrey.
Markle, 41, had told Winfrey last year how she felt isolated from the other members of the royal family, claiming they were being racist against her and even sharing a story about how one senior member of the family questioned how dark-skinned her baby would be.
But in his live stand-up show, Selective Outrage, Rock berated the Duchess of Sussex for her claims of racism, saying she was instead just dealing with internal family drama and noting that she won the “light-skinned lottery”.
He also claimed that “even black people want to know how brown’ her child would be.
It was the second time in just one month that Markle was publicly mocked on television for claiming she is a victim after a recent South Park episode depicted the Duchess traveling around the world complaining about her lack of privacy.
During his two-and-a-half hour stand-up special, Rock went on a rant about people who are trying to portray themselves as victims when he mentioned Markle.
“Like who is this girl Meghan Markle? Seems like a nice lady, just complaining,” he began. “Like didn’t she hit the light-skinned lottery?”
Rock then took aim at comments she made during a sit-down interview with Oprah last year.
“They’re so racist, they’re so racist,” Rock mocked the Duchess, noting: “Some of that shit she went through was not racism. It was just some in-law shit.
“Sometimes it’s just some in-law shit because she’s complaining, I’m like, ‘What the f*** is she talking about?’
“‘Oprah, they’re so racist they wanted to know how brown the baby was going to be,’” he again mocked Markle. “I’m like, ‘That’s not racist, because even black people want to know how brown the baby going to be.’
“S*** we check behind the ears – that’s a scientific test because you’ve got to know what kind of black child you going to get,” he joked comparing black skin on a scale from basketball stars Stephen Curry to Draymond Green.

That amount of money would buy Zelensky a lovely yacht I’m sure!
Perhaps, it already has..?
I’m only kidding. I’m sure they have the receipts for everything…
The dog ate all the receipts. It’s not Zelenski’s fault. Honest.
Or they were all destroyed when one of their own missiles hit a building while they blamed Russia.
The more unpopular liberal European leaders are, they become more bellicose.
Starmer’s ratings have gone up with his warmongering statements.
Russia are no threat to Europe or anyone.
Liberals love to virtue signal to save their own skins and blame Trump for Ukraine’s inevitable defeat. Macron is no different.
“The theater piece directed by Starmer at Lancaster House with an assembly of 15 European heads of government (and Justin Trudeau of Canada) was not really choreographed to try to convince Trump to reverse course, which appears unlikely, but as an elaborate presentation to save the hides of politicians who invested so much of their own political capital and wasted so much of their citizens’ money in the inevitable and humiliating defeat of Ukraine.
That Ukraine would lose was obvious two years ago to Macron and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz when they both gently broke that news to Zelensky privately in Paris in February 2023.
The private remarks clashed with public statements from European leaders who had routinely said then, and still say today, that they will continue to support Ukraine for as long as it takes to achieve victory on the battlefield. That was Joe Biden’s line too.
Indeed Ukraine’s losses have become unbearable. Macron and Scholz tried to tell Zelensky at that Élysée Palace dinner in February 2023 that he must consider peace talks with Moscow, the Journal reported.”

The clue is that Two-Tier has made it absolutely clear that “his” Coalition of the Willing relies on the USA giving Ukraine Security Guarantees.
Trump’s already ruled that out and Putin has made it absolutely clear he will not accept NATO “peacekeepers” on Ukraine soil.
TTK and the EU Ghouls are just grandstanding for the cameras and are desperately trying to pivot their taxpayer-funded money-generator from the “Saving the Planet-Net Zero SCAM” to a massive increase in defence spending and “Saving Europe from the Big Bad Putin.”
It will end in disaster for any EU troops sent to Ukraine.
When they come back in body bags the liberal elite deluded politicians will be pilloried.
Two Tier’s little boost will be history come the 2029 election when Ukraine will be forgotten about. As much as the Blob, Soros and the WEF would want the war to still be going on in 2029, there are just not enough Ukrainians left to fight it and not enough mercenaries willing to go there either. Missing from most of the legacy media is that the much vaunted Kursk salient is about to be cut off in a pincer movement.
Agreed.
It’s so easy to give away money you steal from your population.
“Here Zelensky, have a bit more money – sorry “support”. We’ll just take it from the giant pool of tax money that we collect and which everyone has lost track what it’s all used for.”
Actually, they don’t take it from that either, because that’s all spent and then some. They do it by issuing more debt. More debt, which no one actually buys except the central bank, which is really another way of saying printing money – so more inflation – and institutional investors which are bound by mandates to have certain amounts of public debt.
The whole thing is a giant fleecing operation. That’s why the posturing and the rhetoric the Ukrainian flags, the media control. The population, who are going to pay for it one way or another, need to be riled up to hate Putin and love Ukraine and Zelensky.
Draw a circle around France and Germany and that’s where every major conflict in Europe has originated over the last 300 years – including two that involved the whole World.
So now they want another war.
This statement is seriously misleading because most of these ‘major conflicts’, however that’s defined, have been (or started as) wars between France and Germany¹. Especially, the so-called world world wars of the 20th century started as joint Franco-Russian revenge war (revenge for 1870/71, that is) against Germany, with the original coalition informally joint by Britain years before hostilities broke out.
It’s also factually very dubious because while France has existed as united country during all this time, Germany didn’t. Until 1806, the Holy Roman Empire still nominally existed although it was composed of a myriad of middle-sized, small and smaller de facto sovereign entities which were usually at war with each other. Napoleon eliminated this pseudo-state but he was ultimately conquered by the British strategy of starting one coalition war against France after the other until one of them finally succeeded. Afterwards, there was a loose confederation of German states but no Germany and these states weren’t involved in military conflicts outside of their respective territories until the Franco-German war of 1870/71 which begat a united German state which enjoyed a peaceful existence in Europe for the next 43 years, until the Entente set forth to destroy it at any cost, see above.
¹ Single example: The seven years war. In continental Europe this was a war of a coalition of Russia, Austria and France against Prussia which took place entirely inside of Germany. In parallell with this, there was global war of England against France for colonies and to help with that, England subsidized the Prussian war effort on the continent.
I’m glad that France hasn’t given much money at all to fund that clown and that sh*tshow.
And Macron isn’t France. He is a t***.
Please don’t use the ‘Global Firepower Index’.
It is a ‘Fred in a shed’ operation that bases its rankings on raw data (military strength, number of frigates, number of tanks, number of missiles, etc.).
It does not take into account other key factors: the condition of equipment, standard of military training, natural resources, economic resilience, alliances, the proportion of GDP devoted to the army, whether or not it has signed up to security pacts, whether or not it possesses nuclear weapons and so on.
Use of such a superficial index makes it difficult to take this article seriously.

instead.
As I’m sure you will know, ‘The Economist’ is also a good reference in this regard.

You wouldn’t want this prat on your side. He is all over the place. God knows what constitutes the attraction of this man. His ‘wife’, I mean come on.
What are your connections to Russia, Noah? How much have they paid you, through RT or otherwise?
What has happened to the ‘Stop the War Coalition’? Once ‘led’ by Comrade Corbyn & Comrade MacDonald … but the ‘left’ seem to be in favour of war now?
Be fair ….. Zelensky’s apparently got a bolt hole lined up in France. I wonder how he paid for that?
They say we are doomed to repeat our mistakes if we forget history. The situation in Ukraine is shaping up to be the Vietnam of our age.
Perhaps Tump is learning from the mistakes made then while others are not?
