What about appointing someone accused of serial assault with a minor and drug taking over the justice system or appointing a someone who is extremely sceptical of the scientific community over health. How many thousands of innocent Americans will he be responsible for killing if he gets his own way? I see his billionaire buddy wants to re-run the British general election as well because he doesn't get on with Starmer. The friends and allays the US has had for the last 80 years are now enemies in Trumps world and the enemies are now his friends. Give Putin what he wants now and the Russians will be walking down O'Connell Street in 50 years time.

RFK is right about the lobbying power in the pharmaceutical industry. That is a cartel.

Key word "Accused". Skeptical of science? NO. Skeptical of Big Pharma? YES. Most Americans seem to agree with him. Enemies?!? Ummmm no but he doesn't have to agree with them in lockstep. Putin doesn't want NATO to infringe any further like the old agreement was. Trump wants these expensive destructive wars to stop. The US is 36 TRILLION in debt they can't AFFORD these stupid wars.

Better than anti vaxxers and conspiracy theorists running the show! Robert Kennedy in his wisdom, touted the anti bacterial ivermectin as a cure for Covid 19, even when it was shown to have no antiviral properties whatsoever. Still, considering his guru proposed injection with bleach as a cure, it's not surprising he's nominated!

Leinster rugby schools are going to use tallaght stadium for a final lol Leinster rugby are using everyones stadium. they really are taking advantage of good facilities, to grow their game. Very sneaky crowd. Plenty of rugby grounds could be use but they are taking advantage of the good work of other organisations

There's never been a MANDATE in the USA where you were forced to buy a gun under threat of losing your job but the same cannot be said of the forced vaccine provided by Big Pharma.

I'm not sure I would agree with your opener there about Leinster Rugby "going to use". I'd imagine there is a commercial implication here for the owners of the ground. I'd also think that Rovers must be happy with this. They have underage and youths teams so, if they don't have an issue, why should us "true gaels" have one. I think that by and large, your observation belongs in a previous age before the advent of tv and the exposure that our young people have to other sports anyway.

Tallaght Stadium was built and funded by the Taxpayers through the local Council.
No sporting organisation paid a cent towards its construction

I hear you but think Miriam O'Callaghan is professional enough to be impartial. Don't start me on where RTE Television gets it's money though! Even if you never watch it you have to buy the licence that funds them.

Very bitter post Kew.
Plenty rugby grounds such as?
Leinster will pay to use the ground and the ground has hosted schools rugby games before anyway.

I'm not certain that Rovers would have any say in the matter

Correct.
SHAMROCK Rovers are only tenants in Tallaght while Sligo ROVERS couldn't care less.
