I wish to temporarily withdraw my Resolution 2026-01. After reviewing the provincial constitution we are mandated to first establish that the current governor has the confidence of the House of Shepherds.

Here is the relevant language:

QuoteSection 9. Governor to Maintain Confidence of Shepherds.
The first order of business in the House of Shepherds, following the commencement of a new session, shall be by resolution the affirmation of their Confidence in the sitting Governor, though these Resolutions of Confidence may be introduced at other times.

@mximo In accordance with Section 9 due to the delayed performance of duties in this early term and complete absence for much of the previous term I am regrettably submitting a motion of no confidence with respect to the current governor.

Seriösmint, acest fost terminar.

This is why I'm an isolationist. It's NOT their problem to deal with!!!!!!!!!

At the request of His Majesty, I have added His Grace as a signatory as our head of state.

@Iac Marscheir Are we now considering Resolution 2026-01? What is happening in the Nimlet?

I wholeheartedly agree with the Seneschal's statement and vehemently condemn the actions taken by the current American administration.

Early this morning and at the direction of their president, Donald Trump, the United States of America invaded the sovereign territory of the state of Venezuela, murdered an unknown number of people, kidnapped at least two individuals, and announced that they had seized control of Venezuela and would be "running it" for an indeterminate amount of time with plans to extract its national resources.  These actions of war and criminality were taken without authorization from the United States Congress, a necessary step according to their constitution, and without the authorization of any international entity which might conceivably have provided a legal basis for these crimes.

Regardless of the merits of Nicolás Maduro and Cilia Flores, it is illegal and immoral for the United States to kidnap the citizens of another country, to murder other citizens in pursuit of that goal, or to purport to take control of the sovereign territory of another country.  These norms protect not only other countries from Americans, but they also protect Americans from the potential predatory actions of other countries.  On what basis can Americans appeal to their national sovereignty when they violate it at will?

Put simply: it's illegal and wrong to murder and kidnap people from another country.

The Kingdom of Talossa condemns these acts in the strongest possible terms, and urges its citizens to speak up against them, wherever they are and however they can.


Signed,
Alexandreu Davinescu, Seneschal del Regipäts Talossan es Baron Davinescu del Vilatx Freiric

His Majesty, King Txec, by the Grace of God, King of Talossa and of all its realms and regions, King of Cezembre, Viscount of Vuode, Sovereign Lord and Protector of Pengopats and the New Falklands, Head of the Church, Defender of the Faith, Leader of the Armed Forces, Viceroy of Hoxha and Vicar of Ataturk

@Baron Alexandreu Davinescu
Just mailed the chain of office which should arrive, just in time, on either the 9th or 10th of January.

Sorry I voted early, I realised I still had church that day 😅

By the way, if anyone plans on giving a speech during the debates, please let me know beforehand so I can try to sort speakers in a way that makes sense. I know I coined the term "Informal Session" myself, but I don't want it to end up in shouting or people talking over each other or anything, and I don't want there to be any confusion on the procedure. Of course, if no one 'pre-registers', I'll just try to do things on the fly.
