The thing about Trump’s rhetoric is that it was just that. He spoke about becoming isolationists but also assassinated Soleimani, a clear act of war with Iran. We’re lucky Iran took it in the arse and just let it slide rather than allow it to draw us into a 3rd official quagmire in the Middle East. And regarding China also adopted the hawkish stance, particularly so after Covid, regularly calling it the “China virus” and calling for a US led investigation into its origins. He also routinely blasts Democrats for being “weak on China.” Funny thing about tariffs like the ones Trump levied on China, they tax Chinese goods imported by the US, in layman’s terms that means consumers pay more for the same goods. Another word for that is inflation. Magically, few in the media mentioned this when he announced the tariffs. Somehow inflation only applies when the Dems are in charge. That’s part of the schizophrenic nature of US politics. All that said I feel confident in saying Trump would gladly lead us to war with China. He will do anything to gain bragging rights and stay in power. Wasn't he planning invasions between Nov 2020 and inauguration date to find any way possible to stay in power. The Pentagon shut him down. So yes, both parties a bloodthirsty who will gladly sacrifice anyone but themselves.

Henry Kissinger, architect of the US Cold War plans says the US is aimlessly playing with war: “We are at the edge of war with Russia and China on issues which we partly created, without any concept of how this is going to end or what it’s supposed to lead to.” That’s not true Henry, just ask Fanofish from the Showtime Lakers Message boards. We aren’t flirting with war and if we are it won’t be our fault and it doesn’t matter anyway because there is no war. And if you don’t agree you are a weak little man Kissinger. Saw this earlier and was thinking even at 99 years of age, old hank knows a thing or two about war. He was a bad bad man in his heyday.

Saw this earlier and was thinking even at 99 years of age, old hank knows a thing or two about war. He was a bad bad man in his heyday. Well....I wouldn't go that far Sammy. Kissinger's handling of Vietnam was horrific. The bombing of the Ho Chi Minh Trail and the inevitable killing of innocent civilians in Laos and Cambodia and hiding it from the American public was just outright criminal. He may have known a thing or two about foreign policy, but by no means is this somebody to praise. But more importantly, you have to understand that these conflicts we are in with foreign nations whether it be China, Afghanistan, or Russia are the doings of BOTH political parties. You can't just keep blaming democrats for the mess we get ourselves into. If anything, many of these problems started with Republican administrations and Democrats just kept up the policies when they got into power. These issues are not going to disappear if and when Biden leaves office. They'll be the next president's problem and will likely get worse. The U.S. is an interventionist nation and has been since 1898. The degree to which we get involved has changed, but we have always been an international police force and that will not change regardless of what political party is in power.

The Democrats are confused and divided and hence worst because the path ahead for them is clear yet they pull the same shit like the other side like stoking the flames of war. So yeah man, fuck the Democrats too. And take that hag Pelosi and retire her to oblivion. Have you seen her district in San Francisco? She has done shit for her constituents. More like she has shit on them yet they smear her back to DC over and over again. Bullshit man.

It has always been the same regardless of what political party has been in power....that's an indisputable fact my friend. On domestic issues, their differences are more apparent. The problem is deeper than one democratic congresswoman as well. Yes, she's Speaker of the House, but this is a U.S. cultural superiority complex issue more than anything else. If you're going to rag and rag on democrats then just be willing to say the same thing with the same vitriol when the next Republican president is elected.

The city -- already dominated by a liberal super-majority of legislators -- has just recently pushed through massive local tax increases designed to address the homeless crisis. The beautiful city of Seattle is overrun by vagrants. Let drug addicts and pushers roam free.

www.yahoo.com/finance/news/singapore-next-premier-wong-warns-230000827.htmlSingapore’s prime minister-in-waiting Lawrence Wong warned that the US and China may “sleepwalk into conflict” if they don’t engage with each other and deescalate rising tensions over Taiwan In an interview on Monday with Bloomberg Editor-in-Chief John Micklethwait, Wong said the relationship between the world’s biggest economies was on a “very worrying” trajectory in the wake of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan and China’s subsequent military drills around the island But but but there was bipartisan support...

The beautiful city of Seattle is overrun by vagrants. Let drug addicts and pushers roam free. I really don't have all the answers to these problems Sammy, but one factor for sure is the cost of living on the West Coast has gotten out of hand. There are many hard working people who work around the clock who have a hard time paying rent. If you're a single parent and have to take care of a kid, the problem is even worse. You have one medical emergency, and that can potentially leave you homeless as well if you don't have any immediate family to help take care of you. So yes, there is a criminal element there, but many people are hard working people who have just fallen on hard times and cannot keep up with the standard of living in some of these big cities. But I'll tell you, even in Republican run states, there's a crap load of poverty as well. Wages are lower and businesses thrive because they can easily get away with paying people minimum wages while their rent continues to increase year after year and profits for businesses continue to increase annually.

It is not the Socialist City of America. Is there obscene wealth in the city? Is there obscene poverty in the same city? That is C-a-p-i-t-a-l-i-s-m, period. The fuck face capitalist in turn frame the conversation around who controls the largely meaningless local city government. They have some power over how the nominal city taxes get spent, mostly on policing the poor districts. Why is this so misunderstood in America? Could it be the religion of capitalism that has no faults or flaws and is impervious to any and all criticism, is the cause? Los Angeles has way way more than 55,000 homeless right now, easily closer to double. Housing prices are out of control, real estate speculation that is outlawed in various parts of the world, is a root cause of skyrocketing prices. Those are capitalists competing against one another to “flip” properties in an endless cycle of squeezing profits on short term investments. So what does that have to do with how any party “controls” a city?

Wages are lower and businesses thrive because they can easily get away with paying people minimum wages while their rent continues to increase year after year and profits for businesses continue to increase annually. Couldn't agree more brother T. Inflation is out if control. Wages are not keeping up. Staffing shortages due to covid illnesses and isolation. Things are out of hand. Is this the best time to rattle sabres? That's my issue with this whole Taiwan situation with the Ds. You know my views on their handling of COVID. The latest Biden CDC guidance has zero grounding in Science and has 100 pct motivation from the upcoming midterms. Agreed States like TN, MS, LA etc are mired in poverty for the minorities and discrimination. Those states have zero Or negative GDPs. California is the fifth largest economy globally by itself larger than the economies of India abd UK and just behind Japan and Germany with US and China being top two. We have massive taxation. Yet our cities look like this under Democrat rule. The cops are instructed not to go after criminal vagrants who threaten persin and property. In San Francisco, a decree was made not to go after criminals who shop lift merchandise under a thousand bucks. As a result, it was open season and stores like CVS and Walgreens shut down. Cops don't even respond. Neighborhoods have hired private patrols for protection. In the most taxes state in the union. That's some liberal bullshit right there. Not saying grass is greener on the other R side. But it sure ain't good here on D side either.

The R side has been brainwashed against socialism as if it's the plague. Having traveled around this country quite a bit, I havent seen this level of mass homelessness in cities like Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, Orlando, Phoenix, Atlanta, etc. Don't get me wrong I'm not saying they all good. The disparity between rich and poor seems more glaring to me in the D controlled states particularly west Coast and IL. I see two issues. Unaffordable housing and uncontrolled substance abuse.

Keep rattling that Sabre
A new study in the journal Nature Food found that a full-scale nuclear war between the US and Russia would kill 5 billion people (more than half of humanity). It gets better—the vast majority of us wouldn’t die instantly from the blasts. No, we’d perish from starvation as the soot kicked up by the detonations would block sunlight, sending crop yields down 90% in a matter of years and causing a global famine.

The R side has been brainwashed against socialism as if it's the plague. Having traveled around this country quite a bit, I havent seen this level of mass homelessness in cities like Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, Orlando, Phoenix, Atlanta, etc. Don't get me wrong I'm not saying they all good. The disparity between rich and poor seems more glaring to me in the D controlled states particularly west Coast and IL. I see two issues. Unaffordable housing and uncontrolled substance abuse. Indeed it is a potent combination, but remember we pay more in taxes than any other country on the planet for “the war on drugs.” The DEA, ATF, FBI, and CIA all play a role in that war. So do special task forces in local law enforcement agencies. The southern border is militarized to a level beyond almost any other border on earth. All of that costs money money money and yet you are openly talking about uncontrolled drug use within California. If that isn’t failure I’m not sure what is. This is Reagan’s plan 40 years later. It doesn’t become Newsom’s plan just because he’s governor or _____’s plan just because he/ she is mayor. As a resident of Venice I’ve spent a fair amount of time in and around homeless people most of which accelerated in the past decade. A lot of these people aren’t from California. They come here by bus or train because of the weather, giving them the ability to survive outdoors and because they won’t be kicked in the teeth like back home in Alabama for living how they do. Weather and tolerance. I don’t think we are doomed just because of capitalism, but this form of capitalism is clearly failing and for many reasons. Namely, the wealthiest avoid taxation. So long as that continues, yes, we are doomed imo. Because problems that have gone on unsolved for decades will worsen, like petty theft, homeless encampments and drug use. We are living through the problems spiraling out of control right now. Keep making excuses for why people with obscene wealth don’t need to pay taxes on capital gains, hiding money in offshore accounts etc and these problems will only multiply. California is the 5th biggest economy on earth and still struggles the way it does in part because it pays for socialism for Mississippi, Louisiana and other net negative economies within the union. We produce the majority of the food for this country right here in this state and all with migrant labor. When you go to the store and see a head of lettuce for .99 or strawberries for 1.99 those prices at the consumer level are only possible by exploiting migrant labor. Same with fast food and casual dining chains food supplies. Stop that practice and inflation for food would spiral out of control like housing and fundamentally change the entire complexion of America and its economy. But but illegal immigrants keep coming over. No shit dumbfucks. Bernie doesn’t even rank as a true Socialist (neither does AOC) they both fall under moderate Democratic Socialists by political standards based on their flavor of politics. In short, they’re calling for the bare minimum of what constitutes Socialism but how the US media paints them is another story. People are skeptical of the US media over virtually every topic these days, except for when it talks about socialism. Then it is all knowing again. Tough to undo 100 years of propaganda hammered into the minds of a people spanning generations. Cops are some of the biggest anti socialists and they are in fact a socialist program, fitted with a union, retirement pension etc. Duuuuh, I’m on the payroll of the state and I don’t believe in people living off the state duuuuuuuh. As I mentioned before in another post, currently America’s wealthiest hold more wealth than Pharaoh’s of ancient Egypt did over their people. That wealth accumulation isn’t happening in Tennessee it’s happening in San Francisco, Los Angeles and New York. Capitalism at work.

So 8 out if the 10 house Republicans who voted to impeach Trump are booted out. That's what you get in politics for doing the right thing. Liz Cheney, the most vocal anti trump R got her ass handed to her.
That's how much of a stranglehold he has on the Rs. Time is running out for the Ds to save democracy.
Btw the Feds abandoned purchasing COVID vaccines. We're on our own after the next booster campaign. Down with the socialism of free vaccines. Another Democrat win on COVID.

What Biden admin has decided on Covid is beyond tragic. Leaving it to the private insurance companies to markup the cost of the vaccine to increase profit in a system where a significant portion of the population has no health insurance. This is why the Democratic Party will die.
