I agree; but I certainly don’t think calling an actor “beggar-in-chief” is particularly brave, even if the world is telling me to worship the guy. But it’s enough to piss off those that float in the winds of the time and somehow agree with every stupid thing they’re told to.
Tired sigh. Ah yes, turning on your gas stove. Conservatism is dead, and now it’s just spoiled, petulant contrarianism to own the libs in the virtual world.
Xi’s plan was probably to let the crazy Russian scare everybody to death, thus making Xi’s saber rattling bluff(s) much more believable; Xi was most likely egging Putin on, telling him how awesome Putin’s victory would be, etc. The positive out of this is now that the world knows Putin is a paper tiger…except for the nukes, Xi has no “ally” to throw at the West.
I do agree with you on the whole ROI thing wrt Ukraine and US dollars -infinitely more return (because “infinity” is what one gets when dividing by zero) relative to the wasted dollars thrown at Iran/Afghanistan. At this point, no doubt there are dollars being funneled to the accounts of less than ethical folks, but hey that’s always the price of war. I personally will always respect people that are actually fighting for a cause, placing their lives on the line -on either side.
I’m betting, and this is just a vague and nebulous intuition, that their launch of a new gold backed currency was contingent upon a swift victory and Putin basically owning Europe and its gas supply by now.
So far I like Biden saying that materials used in infrastructure projects funded by the infrastructure bill must be produced in the US, and I like allowing medicare to negotiate drug prices.
There was a lot said about the stresses of the job and and his ability to handle it, none of it good, and he’s responding right about as one would expect.
Thats not good. Not good at all. I don’t necessarily like his politics, but I don’t want to see him die either.
Bro, I’m 103% sure that if Ukraine falls, the U.S. is next. It’s just common sense. Do you want to be speaking Russian for the rest of your life after Nazi Germany takes over our country and imposes Talibanesian rule under the Viet Cong? Brush up on your foreign policy, Brohan.
In addition to growing up Puerto Rican in the black church while going to Schul more than most Jewish people, Joe Biden now apparently grew up in the Polish community as well.
