Down with penguins! š¤Ø
Another casualty from Liberation Day... Heard and McDonald Islands, which form an external territory of Australia, are inhabited only by penguins. They were specifically called out in Trumpās list and hit with a 10% tariff. (Didn't realise there was a market for penguin feces. š )
He forgot his passport?!?
A United Airlines pilot realised he forgot his passport 2 hours into a flight from LA to China - diverting to San Fran for another crew to finish the journey. Second time in two weeks for United. It begs the question... Why doesn't the crew get checked before an international flight?
