So now it will likely go to the State’s appellate court. I’d venture it won’t be resolved by Election Day.
And now we get to find out if the US citizenry have the audacity to elect a convicted felon as president. Oh, what a precedent to set.
Oh you are challenging the wrong person on this one bub. Can you point out Grenada? How about Marshall Islands? Nauru? Kiribati (pronounced like Gilbert’s), Comoros? How about where Japan ends and Russia begins?
Sun Tzu says don’t underestimate your opponent. Pretty sound advice.
The people of Taiwan disagree with your sentiment. Some think that the ROC is the true government of China, others think that Taiwan and China are now two separate countries, but, go figure, officially saying so would instigate a hostile reaction from the PRC.
So it seems that they’re under a bit of duress to acquiesce to the PRC line, no?
“They’re Chinese” sounds a great way to “liberate” the people’s of Taiwan, Bhutan and Singapore from their current democratic shackles.
The way you phrase this makes it seem like the oligarchs had no responsibility in shaping how Russia is today.
Russia is at least as complicit in its own destiny.
I think you can understand why any nation wouldn’t just fully embrace a failed state with their arms wide open, particularly one that, up until a recent turn, had been its most vehement opposition.
I’m glad you agree that the Politburo has resulted in untold human suffering.
While I agree with your sentiment regarding people losing faith in their government, we have been on this road before a few times (antibellum era, William Jennings Bryan era, Joe McCarthy era). After a time of painful soul searching, we’ve always come back from these low periods. I have no reason to believe we won’t overcome it again.
I’m going to answer this honestly, because on the internet I can’t tell if you’re being funny or curious. Kanye referred to Jesus as Yeezy. Once he became so grandiose in the music industry, and his mental disorder started to take over, he started calling himself Yeezy. So Yeezy should be pronounced like Jesus, I suppose.
In any case, the man has a God complex.
And this article confirms what we all already knew - he likes fish sticks.
Not everything is meant to be funny.
So much like a zoo monkey, you exist for the fascination of others, and the occasional casting of feces their way? I see. I’ll continue to view you from the cage you’ve made for yourself then, while keeping some distance.
Wow, you sure got me there with your sick memes and short blasts. You can see the ills of the world cowering by the appearance of your civil discourse.
Never said communism is bad, friend, just that it’s not a good idea to be consumed by any ideological framework - that’s how you become a zealot or worse, an enabler to someone who corrupts the cause.
To add, the US supports Israel because Israel is still their #1 ally in the region.
Israel is the primary foil to Iran, whose government is a belligerent to America.
It doesn’t all have to be Capitalism vs your ideology; sometimes it’s just old-fashioned geopolitics.
If you think all capitalists are nazis then your ideology has blinded you.
I wouldn’t put it past them, They have crossed over the Pacific Ocean before ☺️
The whole Venezuela v Guyana thing is complicated as hell. It essentially started with the Dutch & Britain drawing Guyana’s maps wrong. Flash forward and Venezuela is all pissed that Guyana’s maps include their territory so arbitration is called in…and the arbiters are the US and UK of all nations. And of course they vote in Guyana’s favor.
So Venezuela of course is once again pissed and doesn’t accept the binding arbitration agreement. Flash forward again and now it’s been made even more complicated since oil has been found off the coast of the contested territory. Even worse, Guyana is poorly equipped to defend it.
To put it simply, it’s a shitshow.
I think the Daily podcast today framed it pretty well from both sides’ perspective. You’re welcome to take a listen, even though it may not fit your narrative around here.
Essentially, Israel got their cojones because they saw how Iran didn’t do much to react to the assassination of Soleimani. So Israel acted on the consulate. The Biden administration was unhappy about it, but Israel is an ally (I don’t need to tell you that Iran is not), and so when Iran retaliated, UK and US came to their aid.
It’s that simple, not that hard to understand, allies gonna align, and Israel is an important one in the region.
The difference, from an Israeli perspective, is that Iran didn’t use one of their proxies to retaliate this time, and that is a significant difference. The US allowed tit for tat last time and then let it slide, at least publicly. It seems that Israel’s hardliners aren’t willing to let this one “slide”, they want to continue tit for tat. I’m hoping cooler heads prevail before this dominoes.
I really hope he donated his brain to science. The man went from world famous to villain in a single car chase. It’s rare that people fall from grace so far, so quickly. I am not excusing his heinous acts, but I will say it would make a lot more sense, in my mind, if this man’s anger and impulsivity was predicated on a TBI.
Are you inferring that the money would be better spent on employees? I don’t necessarily disagree, but will argue:
I mean, he does have like 7^x log(ln) kids…
You have an interesting way of seeing the world - strict names claim geography ideology.
So by your definition, which Congo is the real Congo? Or should the US own all of the Americas? Or perhaps the reverse, China gives up Tibet and Inner Mongolia then? Or maybe we should extrapolate to the absurd, all lands named after saints are now owned by the Vatican?
