  10. How many cameos is Henry Clay is going to get on Biographics before he gets his own episode?
    424
  11. "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" is a great book for people who have very little financial literacy. You can't imagine how disappointed I was when I found the rest of Kiyosaki's books are worth less than the paper they were printed on.
    367
  12. Henry Clay would be an interesting Biographic. He probably one of the most influential Americans that no one except history buffs have heard of
    366
  13. Between Musk and Trump, this will be a golden era of nonsensical economic policy and white collar crime.
    323
  14. I would love for Trump to answer questions about corn stars and adultry under oath, and then watch evangelicals talk about how great of a Christian he is.
    315
  15. Robert Kiyosaki has been using his fame from "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" to sell bad and unethical financial advice for decades.

  17. Founders get away with more with employees, but Twitter is hardly a startup.
    304
  18. If Ukraine is willing to sacrifice their lives for the fight for Western values, then we can at least sacrifice a few dollars, pounds, or euros.
    234
  19. Slovakia is likely Hungary's new autocratic partner.
    226
  20. Invasion? It's a special military operation.
    203
  21. Why is Hungary allowed to stay in the EU?
    188
  22. Why would India and China link their monetary well-being to economic basket cases like South Africa, Russia, and Brazil? It would be like the Euro, but everyone is 2008 Greece.
    187
  23. Why anyone would invest in Turkey after Erodgan said God told him that inflation would be reduced by lowering interest rates is beyond my understanding.
    181
  24. He thinks there is "only one" black female author? Someone needs to go to the library.

  30.  @ararune3734  Russia caused the only European invasions of the 21st century- Georgia in 2008 and Ukraine in 2014.
    151
  31. Republicans: We don't like the idea that there could be up to 5000 asylum claims in day that could be deported in six months, so we are going to keep a system that allows 10,000 asylum claims that could be deported in 5 to 7 years.
    149
  32. Gerrymandering: When politicians pick voters instead of the other way around.
    146
  33. "All men are created equal" Trump: "Except me. I am like Jesus."
    141
  34. Suggestion: Henry Clay He is probably one of the most influential pre-Civil War politicians that few Americans have ever heard of.
    133
  35.  @Geny  Because Orban ignores EU law, and because Hungary has removed EU requirements like Rule of Law, an independent judiciary, and a free press.
    132
  36. "Russian Intelligence" Ship. What an oxymoron!
    129
  37. Uno reverse. France has vetoed a US-EU free trade deal for three decades.
    124
  38. At least the president has his new, giant palace. That is what Erdogan finds important.
    120
  39. The Russian military is probably debating which war crime to commit next.
    120
  40. Trump on steroids is literal. The old man is struggling to be this active.
    119
  41.  @jacky9590  Sweden could send the jets to Ukraine instead of Putin-loving, autocratic Hungary.
    118
  42.  @iljenshumilin467  Russia invaded and annexed Crimea. This is literally the only time since Saddam invaded Kuwait in 1991 that a nation has used the military to steal territory from a sovereign nation. In addition, Putin goes on Russian TV and claims that Ukraine is historically Russia and therefore doesn't deserve their independence. This doesn't seem like Russia is respecting Ukraine's borders or sovereignty.
    117
  43. I would disagree about the NATO consent as you need every country to buy in or it hurts the chance everyone will contribute to an Article 5 response. 100% agree that EU countries shouldn't get so much veto power. It is just open to abuse.
    116
  44.  @Isclachau  Based on your non-response, response, there isn't any evidence. Standard MAGA.
    114
  45. I assumed most intelligence leaks are through Discord and War Thunder forums.
    111
  46. Criminals*
    110
  47.  @alexj7440  Downfall? That is weird I thought the Soviet Union was the one to collapse and left America as the world's only superpower.
    105
  48. I still can't get over how almost 1% of South Korea's GDP is K-Pop.
    103
  49. If you want foreign investment to revive an economy, you need get rid of protectionism and make it a stable place to invest. He is taking those steps.
    101
  50. You know a military is terrible when you can't find recruits when youth unemployment is so high.
    98
  51. Once Russia targeted civilians with missiles fired from these airbases, Russia escalated the war. It is a proportional response to fire back on these bases.
    98
  52. Basically, Brazil wants to trade with human rights violators without worrying about sanctions. Russia war crimes and Chinese putting Muslims in camps shouldn't get in the way of Brazil trade. I guess....
    97
  53. Trump - Putin - Orban Make Autocrats Great Again
    97
  54. Shouldn't politicians who take money from foreign intelligence services be arrested? I'm confused about how the FSB and GRU can so openly bribe politicians in Moldova.
    93
  55. Gaetz's teenage girlfriend knows more about governing than he does. They just covered the topic in her 10th grade social studies class.
    91
  56. Shouldn't the politicians who take money from foreign intelligence services be arrested? How are the FSB and GRU allowed to bribe Moldova politicians practically in the open?
    88
  57. Free riding: A European military tradition since the creation of NATO
    86
  58.  @Geny  The UK left, and Poland voted in pro-democracy candidates who reverse Poland's democratic backsliding. Hungary should follow their example.
    86
  59. ​ @RR-et6zp America has a 4% unemployment and Trump wants to deport 20 million people. Where are those manufacturing jobs going to come from?
    85
  60. They are trying to make it an alternative to the G7. I'm not sure how successful a BRICS alliance can be if is just based on a lack of values.
    85
  61. Europe needs to hold their own weight within NATO. Most members cut military budgets and then ask the US to spend more money to protect them.
    83
  62. More Roman and Greek Biographics. We also know how much Simon loves those topics.
    80
  63. The echo chamber is so isolated that they can't even imagine a world where people don't like Trump.
    77
  64. Where is George Bush?
    77
  65. Ukraine aid donations are using BS accounting. For example, many countries are using the replacement cost of the sent hardware as the value of their aid. This is like me gifting my 10-year-old truck to my son, buying myself a brand new truck, and then declaring that I gifted a truck valued at my new purchase.
    76
  66. "I am not joking when I say this, if you are ever working with me and I hear you treat another colleague with disrespect, talk down to someone, I promise you I will fire you on the spot," Biden said. "On the spot. No ifs, ands or buts."
    76
  67.  @tnamr5652  And South Korea, Australia, Poland, and even India has shown interest in joining the G7 bloc. This is a lot more impressive than BRICS having Syria join their club.
    72
  68.  @Demon88061  False, on paper, Ukraine and Belarus were equal members of the Soviet Union, so they had equal rights to those nukes. Either way, Russia still signed a treaty saying they would respect Ukraine's sovereignty and borders.
    70
  69. The Communist Party treats all enthic Chinese as their property -- regardless of nationality.

  70. After Canada deports them to the North Pole, where is Santa going to send them next?

  71. Just talk to a government employee, and you will quickly understand why government businesses are terrible.
    68
  72.  @Isclachau  Evidence?
    65
  73. Trump, "in four years, you don't have to vote again. We'll have it fixed so good, you're not gonna have to vote." Basically, saying the quiet part out loud.
    65
  74. That call themselves ISIS, but it really just Taliban factions fighting a civil war.
    63
  75. When economists and journalists warns us against cryptocurrency, few listen. When Jim Gordon warns us, we take notice. Society is dumb.
    63
  76. Russian trolls: The "special operation" is going exactly as planned. 🙄
    62
  77. Russia went from the second strongest military in the world to the second strongest military in Russia.
    61
  78. Yet Reagan was widely popular.
    61
  79. The general embarrassed the military establishment so bad that they had to rerun the war games where the US team was given the handicap of knowing where all the adversary military assets were hidden. Basically, they had to cheat to win against a hypothetical Iran commanded by a 3 star US general.
    58
  80. WW2 could have ended in 1939 if Britain just surrendered their freedom and sovereign. Same logic.
    58
  81. There is no hate like Christian love.
    58
  82. I find it unnerving that Warren, Sanders, and AOC claim that having a reserve currency means we can spend infinitely without consequences, and people believe them.
    57
  83.  @disposabull  There has been a lot of communications with Russian soldiers and Ukrainian citizens. This is mostly with the soldiers who ran out of gas.
    57
  84. Scaramucci was from an era where Trump recruited qualified cabinet members. He eventually chased them off for the crazy loyalists.
    57
  85. Probably will have to take an Established Title and FTX sponsorship to pay it off.
    56
  86. Did we watch the same interview? Le Pen dodges responsibility for her and her party's own statements.
    56
  87. Before anyone assumes these companies are doing this out of the goodness of their hearts, remember there is major uncertainty on what future sanctions may be. Many of these companies may be pulling out of Russia because they believe it may mitigate losses to pull out before future sanctions take place. This same companies don't seem to have issues with dismantling Hong Kong's democracy or Uyghur concentration camps as long as these issues don't threaten their profit margins.
    55
  88. North and South Carolina could never have a similar unification. The difference in mustard-based and vinegar-based BBQ sauces is too vast.
    54
  89. War of Russian Aggression
    54
  90. JD Vance: "Couches can't get pregnant."
    53
  91.  @alexandrugheorghe5610  It is the model of Hungary/Russia's "illiberal democracy"
    52
  92. I want to hear how she is one of the best stock pickers of our time. How does she do it? 🤔
    50
  93.  @jamm8284  The other way around. China national, but mostly local, governments pay huge subsidies to have manufacturers set up in China.
    50
  94.  @bennynguyen176  He has two books on "Network Marketing" that every pyramid scheme gives out to trick naive people into thinking Multi Level Marketing works. His other business advice usually involves getting as many investors as possible, and then pretty much gamble with their money.
    50
  95. This is more of a populist issue than a far-right issue. Latin America has been dealing with this kind of incompetence for decades regardless of the left-right divide.
    50
  96. SBF also made the argument that his crime was victimless until he lost enough money where he couldn't pay back his defrauded victims. Trump/Kevin are also arguing that fraud is okay as long your gambling with other people's money pays off.
    49
  97. The Russians are so victorious that they have supposedly fully captured the same town five times already.
    48
  98. @John C. Smith To denazify, I would recommend starting with the fascists in Russia who are sending troops into a sovereign democracy based on Russians' feeling of ethnic superiority.
    48
  99. More Republicans and Democrats should choose their country over their personal ambitions.
    48
  100. You should attribute the quote to it's source (Coffeezilla)
    47
  101. Moscow Marge should be sent to live in Siberia
    47
  102.  @thepalettewhispererasmr1227  Then why is Trump so scared to debate him?
    47
  103. Musk doesn't have the emotional intelligence to manipulate Trump
    46
  104. Don't let Moscow Marge let Russia win!
    46
  105. @megachaloub759  According to the Russian state, 20% of Russians don't have access to indoor plumbing. Basically, everything outside of a few cities has people live like peasants in Russia. Meanwhile, NK teaches their people it is gluttony to eat more than two meals a day.
    45
  106. Isn't this the same guy who told us to buy from FTX?
    45
  107. Does the Cultural Revolution not count as a failure?
    45
  108. @earthcitizen7245  "Having the internet". Do you mean a few state sponsored hackers have access to the internet, while no one else has heard of the concept?
    44
  109.  @choleraphd7702  You are right. The Union isn't a playground. The EU is a confederation that Hungary chose to join by signing a treaty, and part of that agreement was that all members to have free and fair elections, an independent judiciary, free press, and rule of law. Orban has broken the agreement over and over, so Hungary should be expelled for treaty violations.
    44
  110.  @brendanh8193  I doubt most families have been even notified yet that their sons have died.
    43
  111. Comparing Medieval Spain to post-colonial Africa and Asia is like comparing apples to screwdrivers.
    42
  112.  @Magic_beans_  Rich Dad, Poor Dad was just a good way to explain assets, liabilities, and equity to people without basic accounting knowledge. The only real downside to the book is that it is overly optimistic on real estate, doesn't properly explain the risk of debt, and is often used as stepping stone to sell people bad financial products.
    42
  113. American politics isn't complex. It's just dumb. The parties used to debate ideology, policies, and ideas. Thanks to social media echo chambers, both parties now live in separate false realities and debate what is true.
    42
  114.  @TheIrishLad06  His next example will be Russia
    41
  115. The secularist have had coups in Turkey before and actually stabilized the economy. Turkey is the only country in the world where military coups don't produce more uncertainty than the actual government. FWI: I'm not endorsing a coup. I just find Turkey to be unusual in this regard.
    41
  116. Basically, Hungary wants all the benefits of EU membership without any of the democratic obligations that go along with it.
    40
  117.  @denisestarr2314  The founding fathers never foresaw that the public would elect a felon or tyrant when writing the Constitution.
    39
  118. Germany efficiency is obvious BS.
    38
  119. Just consider yourself lucky for not having a border with Mexico.
    38
  120.  @sliftyy  Ukraine still needs to reform. That is why they have a roadmap to join instead the EU instead of just immediately joining. The same process Hungary went through. Unfortunately, Orban is backtracking his country into a corrupt oligarchy like Putin has in Russia.
    37
  121. ​ @thejollygreendragon8394  So does Trump. 34 convictions to be exact
    37
  122.  @vice2versa  A preemptive attack that doesn't take out America's ability to attack doesn't make sense. You would have to take out the air bases in Japan, Guam, South Korea, the Philippines, and the carrier strike groups out at the same time. However, this could happen due to a miscalculation on China's part due them believing Americans are cowardly to the China threat.
    37
  123.  @inesis  The hypocrisy is that Germany won't sanction Russia, because they want cheap fossil fuels from Russia.
    37
  124. Controversial opinion: Polls shouldn't affect the courts' decisions.
    37
  125. Belarus has sleeper cells trained by by Belarus' ex-army officers in Poland, and there is a brigade of experienced veterans fighting Russia in Ukraine. The Lukashenko knows he could light a powered keg if he joins Russia's war or gets annexed into Russia.
    36
  126.  @carlossaraiva8213  Hungary has shown that small countries can be Trojan horses of Russian-style authoritarianism. These small nations can basically veto what a super majority of the EU wants. Until there is a mechanism to prevent obstructionist, EU expansion will just exasperate the current issues. Side note: France is the obstructionist country of Europe when it comes to free trade.
    36
  127. I always found it unusual how Romans left the flaws in their appearance unlike the Greek or the Italian Renaissance sculptures which are more idolized than realistic.
    36
  128. Where is Trump's plan to replace Obamacare after proposing to fix it nine years ago?
    36
  129. Maybe. China is an example that people will choose willful ignorance as long as their standards of living improve.
    36
  130. Trump or Biden. Republican or Democrat. No one should be above the law.
    36
  131. I imagine Russian officers are discouraged from having low causalities as the Russian government would rather not deal with thousands of rapist and murders with PTSD released into Russian society.
    36
  132. It felt like when Paris Hilton was surprised that Walmart doesn't sell "Wall stuff".
    35
  133. Here comes the Russian trolls.
    35
  134. Annoying Democrats: It's Trump Annoying Republicans: It's Biden
    35
  135. I love how Grant pokes fun of himself with #BringBackSimon
    35
  136. That is ridiculous. Liz is a true Reagan Republican which the party needs to embrace again. Instead, we have MAGA Republicans who no longer believe in democracy, free trade, or rule of law.
    35
  137.  @pranshukrishna5105  Not their special interests groups such as car manufacturers, wine producers, and farmers.
    34
  138. Chinese state banks are already struggling with defaulting real estate companies and failing Belt & Road projects. Dealing with Russia is too high of a risk, especially since Putin already has a history of stealing foreign assets.
    34
  139. The apathy towards Russian deaths is fair, considering how they could care less about what Russian missles do to civilians in Syria and Ukraine.
    34
  140. Pope John Paul II is overdue for a Biographic as one of the most influential figures of the 20th century.
    33
  141. This is why Canada needs to build the wall on their southern border. And make America pay for it!
    32
  142. ​ @jordanansell6488  Inflation adjustments don't count
    32
  143.  @nazar5489  Russia has 400,000+ internal security forces. Of course, they only have experience targeting protesters who can't fire back.
    32
  144. As American, I want to be offended by the joke about the fat American in cargo pants, but then I remember the obscenely obese people I see at the buffet.
    32
  145. Trump learn?
    32
  146. Red tape is ridiculous in India. The same people who can't start a business in India become millionaires in America.
    32
  147. We live in a weird time when Poland wants Germany to send tanks through Eastern Europe.
    31
  148. Few saw the irony of posting on TikTok about their concerns about the Chinese spying on us from a balloon.
    31
  149. It has also been a great business opportunity for businesses to earn more profit. They justify price increases by pointing to inflation while the wage increase becomes inelastic by comparison.
    30
  150. It is like the EURO if every country was 2008 Greece.
    30
  151. It hard to take Robespierre's politics seriously when he ended up getting himself beheaded by the same institution he created.
    30
  152.  @hksm98  You fell for her non answer. She did not promise they would be removed. She said everything except a promise they would be removed.
    30
  153. The important question is how would strip clubs work in a cashless society?
    29
  154. Glory to a country where 1/5 families don't have access to indoor plumbing.
    29
  155. ​ @TheRfGuy I'm always confused by how evangelicals talk like Trump has found redemption from past sins. I am pretty sure to seek redemption, you have to admit your sins and change your ways. Trump has never claimed that he has ever done anything wrong, and he just continues his sinful ways.
    29
  156. "You Either Die A Hero, Or You Live Long Enough To See Yourself Become The Villain" After the war ends, Zelenskyy needs to give up his war powers for Ukraine to truly continue as a democracy. Hopefully, he is one of the few willing to do so.
    29
  157. It's Winnie the Pooh. Pooh is pronounced like the pile of 💩 he is.
    29
  158.  @rw4022  Being a nepobaby isn't something to brag about.
    29
  159. ​​​ @dickjones8119  😂😂😂 60% of Americans sees Trump as a traitor, 30% wants him to quietly retire, and the rest are just delusional.
    29
  160.  @NashHinton  That is impressive since the CIA wasn't established until 1947.
    28
  161.  @BUSI_88  Kevin O'Leary is more Kardashian than Buffet. His "brand" gets him generous deals that are low risk for himself. The money from those deals help fund his gambling on the stock market.
    28
  162. Moral and courage also matter. The Iraqis in Mosal fled from their defensive positions from a less equipped force that was a third of their size. Russian infantry seem unwilling to engage their enemies and have been relying on artillery instead. It would seem likely that the Russian soldiers would rather flee than hide from artillery or wait for Ukraine soldiers to kick down their doors. We will see.
    28
  163. Russia is trying to gaslight that the bridges are undamaged. Do they know the milblogers can just buy Chinese satellite photos?
    28
  164.  @xneurianx  Side effects of winning the cold war. An unstable middle east is safer that a nuclear Soviet Union.
    28
  165. What can the attorneys do if Trump ignores their advice and forces then into a losing strategy?
    28
  166. Joe Biden "I tell you what, if you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, then you ain’t black."
    28
  167.  @Starkogi  I wouldn't underestimate Iran's revolutionary guard. The aren't idiots and they have had decades to think of asymmetrical solutions to challenge the US military.
    27
  168. Our future computer overlords with find this comment and not be happy.
    27
  169.  @pranshukrishna5105  France would rather keep California wines out of Europe than sell more French wine in America, and French cars cost more while being of poorer quality.
    27
  170. Too bad the missles are full of water
    27
  171.  @floydlooney6837  A tank is still a tank, even if it is vulnerable to certain drones.
    27
  172. Don't worry. Biden gets confused about his Secretaries too.
    27
  173. This is why hybrids are better
    27
  174.  @jamm8284  I have a feeling you don't know how subsidies work.
    27
  175.  @davoodoo8042  The agreement: 1) Respect Belarusian, Kazakh and Ukrainian independence and sovereignty in the existing borders. 2) Refrain from the threat or the use of force against Belarus, Kazakhstan or Ukraine. 3) Refrain from using economic pressure on Belarus, Kazakhstan or Ukraine to influence their politics. 4) Seek immediate Security Council action to provide assistance to Belarus, Kazakhstan or Ukraine if they "should become a victim of an act of aggression or an object of a threat of aggression in which nuclear weapons are used". 5) Refrain from the use of nuclear arms against Belarus, Kazakhstan or Ukraine. 6) Consult with one another if questions arise regarding those commitments. There isn't any obligation of Ukraine to remain neutral.
    27
  176.  @guavaguy4397  I heard dumber from Russian propagandists and trolls
    27
  177. It must be a slow news day
    27
  178. ​ @roberthenry9319  Two options: A) I'm avoiding the TY censors B) Trump is working hard to win over farmers by talking to their corn stars
    27
  179. Fun fact: There were gay people before the creation of the covid vaccine
    27
  180. ​ @vlhc4642 China is incredibly unproductive. They use three times the amount of energy and six times the amount of labor to produce the same value. China about to enter their lost decade like Japan did in the 90s. You can already see the signs with deflation, youth unemployment, and collapsing real estate prices.
    26
  181.  @cube_2593  They should also surrender Russia to Mongolia. History demands it!
    26
  182. What new atrocity does Trump have to do to scare away people? I swear there is no bar low enough anymore.
    26
  183. Woodrow Wilson Biographic! He keeps showing up in Biographics and Geographics, but he never gets to be the main character in the story.
    26
  184. Let's look at your examples: *Buying blackmarket parts and using third party mechanics to service their jets cost significantly more than just buying parts from the manufacturer. *Buying washing machines to get computer chips means Russia has to pay a cut to a shady middleman and they have to buy an entire washing machine just for a single part. That means every chip they need costs way more money. Sanctions don't stop trade, but they make it ridiculously expensive.

Just look at Mexico. They don't seek a defensive alliance, because they don't get threatens from their neighbor like Russia does to Ukraine, Georgia, Moldova, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, est.
    22
  218.  @milton3204  You are missing the point. A BRICS currency would just encourage irresponsible spending in South Africa, Brazil, and Russia, because they know that China would bail them out to protect their own monetary well-being. It would just be the 2008 Greek Eurocrisis over and over.

  219. Russia says they worry about an invasion due to a European invasion in the 1940s. Europeans say they worry about an invasion due to Russian invasions of European in 2008 and 2014. Which one sounds more logical?

  249.  @dogman-fx9ub  My point is that no one has invaded Russia since WW2, so the "fear" that anyone is going to attack nuclear Russia is nonsense. Meanwhile, Putin has ordered the invasions of European countries twice since 2008, so it makes sense that his neighbors want protection from Russian aggression.

Unlike in China and Russia, no government body can put in America you in prison without due process.

It is also sad that these countries feel justified victimizing their own people by saying "well'l, America is bad too".

  286.  @bachelor3846  Putin knows NATO won't attack Russia, but as has his propaganda make the defensive alliance seem like a threat, because his domestic audience loves to feel like victims even when they are the aggressive warmongers. Putin's real issue with NATO is that the alliance prevents him from using the military to dominate its neighbors. He rather the Baltic countries not be part of the alliance, so he could attack them like Georgia and Ukraine without facing off against American forces. He also doesn't want Ukraine or Georgia to join, because it will remove the option of attacking the countries everytime they decide to trade outside the Russian sphere of influence. Russia and Belarus keep doing mock-invasion military drills next to the Baltic nations. In addition, Russia straight up attacked Estonia with cyber attacks only a few years ago. If Putin wasn't scared of NATO, he would have just sent troops to occupy the countries with a BS pretext of "protecting Russian speakers".

Russia failed to change the Ukraine government, has yet to successfully annex any territory, has failed to demilitarize Ukraine, and failed to prevent the expansion of NATO. Ukraine's objectives are to retain their sovereignty and recapture their territory. Ukrainians have retained their sovereignty and pushing Russia out of more territory is more realistic than Russia's objectives.

  357. Maybe they should vote for politicians who would invest in education and infrastructure instead of the left-wing crooks who promise wealth distribution. These voters seem to prefer 'free' stuff over better opportunities, and that is why Latin America is getting left behind economicly compared to Asia.
    15
  358. At least Argentine voters can choose their leaders.
    15
  359.  @omarb1912  America has many economic links with Turkey, so even when the leaders don't like one another, those leaders both work to keep the Turkey economy growing on behalf of mutual business interests.

  360. You know the Lira is in trouble when it looks bad in an exchange with a dollar going through Biden's inflation crisis.

  362. You can see the spray tan on his lips.

  363. Russia now doesn't have the capability to survive a drop in oil prices. Its other industries are in decline, and the current budget deficit doesn't give any wiggle room.
    15
  364. I doubt this as tens of thousands of soldiers capable of opposing Kadyrov died fighting in Syria and Iraq not long ago.

  365. Off topic, it is time to kick undemocratic Hungary out of the EU.

  366.  @therealaim-9xmissile  Not really. This isn't the far-right fighting the far-left in a civil war as the liberal democracies watch from the sidelines. This is more like the liberal democracies averting a repeat of handing over Czechoslovakia as a form of appeasement.
    14
  367. That is actually very uncommon. WW2 for American was the exception due to conditions that don't exist today. Every other nation was left in worse economic shape after the war.
    14
  368. Military spending is a drop in the bucket compared to pension payments
    14
  369.  @John_Smith_86  You assume trench lines that the Russian military allow to be filmed is representative of the whole front. It like assuming that Russian tanks are modern because Russian state media tends to not show the the cold war fossils.
    14
  370. Military spending gives Americans a technological edge in several industries, close bonds with our trade partners, and a deterrence to our rivals to interfere with our economic interests.

    14
  373. ​ @DeReAntiqua  If Russia is being smart, then they are rationing ammunition and spreading it among the frontline in preparation for the Ukrainian counter offensive. If Shoigu does send more ammunition to Wagner, so they can capture a few more meters of a destroyed town, then the rest of the frontline will be weaker. Wagner may win their battle, but it could cost the wider war if Ukraine cuts of the Crimea land bridge due to low Russia stocks in the region. Basically, Russian infighting is only advantageous to Ukraine.
    14
  374. ​ @gavasiarobinssson5108  China has strict capital controls and currency manipulations that would make it a terrible partner with a reserve currency. The Chinese and Indian rivalry would make this dead in the water. Lastly, why would India and China link their monetary well-being to economic basket cases like South Africa, Russia, and Brazil? It would be like the Euro, but everyone is 2008 Greece.

  375.  @SantomPh  Hungary didn't have these issues when they joined. Orban is backing tracking. Current Hungary wouldn't be allowed to join, but there is little they can do against current members who backtrack on their obligations

  376. It's pronounced fas-cist

    14
  388.  @1wun1  It depends on the goal. Are sanctions designed to get Russia to pull out? That has failed. Is it to reduce Russian oil revenue and to increase the cost of their military production? Yes, Russia is discounting their oil and spending 30% more to produce military equipment than without sanctions.

  400.  @LollipopKnight2  Pernun was just arguing against strawmen who say Europe has nothing to offer. He also acknowledges that Europe does use the American security umbrella as a way to cut military spending. Basically, outsourcing their military spending to the American taxpayers -- aka freeloading.
    13
  401.  @EarnestBunbury  The US can still be the leading power of NATO without being 70% of the military spending. Making it sound like Europe is doing a favor to the US by freeloading is such a cope.

If you are in your twenties, then you also have to compete with men in their thirties and forties who are farther in their careers. It is incredibly discouraging, and many have given up.

    12
  424. Russia is losing its spheres of influence due its small economic power. Eastern Europe is aligning more and more to the EU and central Asia is aligning more and more with China. Russia is going to have to align with Europe or China to stay relevant, or the country is just going to use asymmetric attacks to punish anyone who tries to leave mother Russia's sphere. As long as Putin is in power, it is going to be the choice that seems more like a tantrum about Russia's irrelevance.

  533.  @nicholasmckenna8614  You have the same moronic logic as those who thought handing over Czechoslovakia to Hitler would prevent war. The issue is that Russia is running a campaign of conquest and genocide. Cutting off weapons or calling for a ceasefire wouldn't stop the war. It will just give Putin more opportunities to exterminate more Ukrainians and more time to prepare for another offensive. You also didn't address whether it would be okay for Hungary to hand over their territory to Putin if it means peace.

  539.  @hendrikdependrik1891  The EU needs to focus on the things that are actually required to be a functioning member of the EU such as fair elections, free speech, rule-of-law, an independent judiciary, and EU supremacy. Hungary agreed to these requirements when they joined the bloc. Instead European liberals are trying to force new values on Hungary and Poland like LGBT rights and accepting poor immigrants from outside of Europe. None of this was part of the EU agreement when these countries joined. These are still independent countries and should be able to have their own laws based on local values instead of having "Brussel values" forced on them.

Most of Trump's voter fraud conspiracies can be easily debunked with open sources (you don't even need the media to fact check for you). The issue is these idiots are tricked into thinking they are saving America when they are the ones threatening democracy.

  701. @TheLastCrumb.  Understanding your own emotions, controlling your own emotions, understanding other people's emotions, and responding appropriately to other people's emotions. For example, people who can't tell when they are offending someone are emotionally unintelligent. People who can't recognize when they are being rude or passive-aggressive when they are upset are emotionally unintelligent. People who cry in public or have angry outbursts are typically emotionally intelligent. Based on people who work with Musk, he doesn't know how to read a room. He also has a fragile ego and tends to overreact.

  714.  @deebil8099  It is not just about the cheap labor as China isn't that cheap anymore. It is about the country being the largest source of middle-class consumers in the world. Joint-foreign ventures sell more in China than overseas, so the economy of scales makes it easiest just to make everything in China. Of course, this is highly overly simplified.

  720.  @Steven-lk2ub  A tax loss carryover is pretty basic accounting. The IRS lets a failing business move a tax loss to future years to offset a profit.

  742. The bidding war on labor has caused a more expensive and less productive economy, and it is one of the leading causes of inflation which ends up eating away at the higher wages.

  833. A currency's value depends on supply and demand. A monetary policy effects both. Obviously, printing more money increases supply. However, if people think inflation will eat the value of the currency too quickly, then they will be a lot less demand for that currency. That is why well run governments have a target of only 2-3% inflation. It gives the benefits of the money printing without reducing demand. Latin America doesn't seem to understand this and rather just complain about exchange rates as they print too much money.

  881.  @warrengoss7547 In the 1940s, some joined the Red Army, while others joined the Nazis after Stalin's Russia murdered millions of Ukrainians during the Holodomor. Most importantly, that was 80 years ago and hardly relevant to today's Ukraine.

It also seemed like they all had nicer smart phones than me, and they all arrived to the store in a car. What Americans call "poor" is just below the medium income.

  894.  @liamr194  Self sufficient? Then explain why your currency has more use as toilet paper than as money? Let's see how much Putin cares about "strategic objectives" when thousands of Russian soldiers come home with missing limbs or in coffins. Even before the information age, the Soviet Union couldn't hide all the casualties and had to pull out of Afghanistan due to public outrage. These returning soldiers won't be returning with stories of fighting Nazi, but instead tell of fellow Slavs fighting for their freedom. The longer this takes, the less effective Putin's hold of the narrative will last.

  895.  @catalinuss  Putin also has a bunch of mostly irrelevant cultural and historical antidotes to say Ukraine and Russia are one people. Ukraine and Moldova have legally gained their own sovereignty decades ago, and their independence should be respected.

  979.  superbmediacontentcreator  I'm guessing you are a woman as you have the option to go on dates until you find a good match. Men in their 20s have a hard enough time getting the time of day unless they are particularly attractive. Imagine running up a bar tab buying drinks for women who pretend to be interested for free drinks, but they aren't interested, or they already have a boyfriend. Imagine if a hundred swipes lead to 10 matches that end up never messaging back. Imagine if you finally get a woman messaging you to have her ghost you when it comes to meeting in person. Modern dating is brutal on the self-esteem.

  980. ​​ superbmediacontentcreator  If you aren't tall or rich, half the dating pool won't even talk to you. That mean you are competing for a limited number of non-shallow women. If you are in your twenties, then you also have to compete with men in their thirties and forties who are farther in their careers. It is incredibly discouraging, and many have given up. I'm not justifying the misogyny, but the path to it seems obvious.

Poor economic conditions and lack of opportunities is always a recipe for crime.

  1054. Trump's new plan is to get rid of income and payroll taxes, and just tariff our way to prosperity. Even people who are here for the rap content, know this is just bad economics.

  1055.  @flaviusjustinianus  It probably has more to do with these scammers not learning how to speak German. English speakers are just a bigger market. It only takes one hack to get your information.

    5
  1061.  @theprofessional1375  The economic crisis was caused by voter backed-laziness. The government budget was too big because pensions kept leaving the work force earlier and earlier, while asking for more and more benefits. In addition to less workers (& taxpayers), there was massive tax avoidance in Greece by the working age population. The world felt zero pity for Greece causing Greek problems.
    5
  1062.  @theprofessional1375  The retired take money from the tax system, while contributing nothing in taxes which is a key reason why Greece's ridiculously low retirement age lead to an economic collapse. Also, a year of unemployment is way too long. Maybe the government would have more money to stimulate the economy or for social services if they weren't spending so much on paying people not to work. Greece's main problem is the population doesn't want to work or pay taxes.
    5
  1063.  @myg14570  I am friends with teachers. They work summers, and frankly, they were the worst students at college. Their summer job puts them above the national average. Also, if you add the contributions of 10 years of early retirement, then they are making significantly more than their job requires. If they want a higher salary without a pension, then there is always the private sector.

  1087. I'm always confused by how evangelicals talk like Trump has found redemption from past sins. I am pretty sure to seek redemption, you have to admit your sins and change your ways. Trump has never claimed that he has ever done anything wrong, and he just continues his sinful ways.

It would be understandable to have different opinions on the implications of certain facts, but it's nuts to just establish "alternative" "facts" to fit a narrative.

  1096. The only thing left is long range rockets, advance drones, and fighter jets. Fighters seem unlikely due their incredible costs, training requirement, maintenance requirements, and the ability for Russian air defenses to shoot them down.

The other estimates are based on Trump's tax accessors, whom Trump signed off on. Lastly, if Trump didn't want the judge to decide the case, then he should have requested a jury trial.

  1121.  Russia, if you’re listening  Many voted against Trump for obvious reasons, but many also split their ticket and voted Republicans for congress, because of the Democrats' push towards socialism. Both polls and Democrats who lost their races say that the push towards socialism was to blame for Democrats poor election results. Most Americans believe in being rewarded for hardwork--which is the antithesis of socialism.

  1144.  @alqaas1948  Using previous budget surpluses to buy a bunch of military assets to be destroyed in Ukraine looks good in GDP terms, but it is not good for long-term growth. Nationalizing (stealing) foreign assets is a good way to get cash quickly, but it guarantees that Russia will never be a place of investment again. Driving up wages by causing workers to flee abroad or having young men lose their lives in Ukraine seems nice for now, but it makes the Russian industry uncompetitive if it ever wants to switch from war production to an export economy in the future.

I worked a supermarket for almost a decade, so I can promise you the people who get arrested for stealing deserve a night in jail. The food they steal is never bread and potatoes, but instead they steal ribeyes, snow crabs, and boose.

  1155.  @djangokill65  The American model involves hiring locals who can then spend money in their community.

In the Chinese model all the money goes to China and the African officials taking kickbacks.

Russia literally attacked Ukraine in 2014 for seeking trade ties with the EU. Putin is willing to use violence to keep the country subservient to him in all matters.
    4
  1310. @Laika24102007 NATO is defensive alliance because that is how the articles are written. For example, there isn't any article that can be used to compel members to do anything other than defend one another. America can't even use its NATO base in Turkey for operations in Syria or Iraq without Turkey's permission. You are taking Stoltenberg out of context. He was saying that Russia doesn't get veto power over it neighbors' ability to seek closer relationships with countries other than Russia. It would be like America saying that Mexico isn't allowed to have a free trade deal with China, because Mexico is in the US's sphere of influence.
    4
  1311. @Laika24102007 NATO is a defensive alliance and all members are independent. If all members were American client states as Russian propaganda claims, then most of the alliance wouldn't have ignored America when they asked for assistance in Iraq. NATO actually protects the independence of its members through collective protection.

  1320.  @timonsolus  That is one of many theories. Putin is closed off and acting irrational, so one can only guess at his thinking.
    4
  1321.  @liamr194  What you were saying was true until before Russia's foreign reserves were frozen. They don't have the money to just wait it out. Even with prices going up, Russia is heavily discounting their gas to prevent European diversification (they can't go cold turkey even if wanted to). The country also can't get investments or loans (interest rates are now 20%). Even buying or paying for anything is going to be a more expensive task. If this doesn't look bad, then you aren't paying attention. Syrian mercenaries aren't going to be effective soldiers.

They also like to mock the other for doing so without recognizing the hypocrisy. Just look at CNN's coverage of Virginia. Independent were American patriots in 2020 for voting for Biden over Trump, but now those say independents turned into white supremacists within a year and voted Republican? It is completely ridiculous.

Chinese transparency laws are so poor that investing is incredibly risky because there are dozens of Chinese Enrons are out there. The Alibaba Group was winning until the CCP cracked down on them for outperforming the state. Chinese authoritarianism and corruption makes investing in the Chinese market very risky. In addition to the risk, the Chinese underperforms compared to the rest of the Chinese economy. This is likely due to state ownership making companies spend money on things that benefit the CCP instead of investing in things that make the company more profitable.

They need a major breakthrough because when the weather stops the advance, Russia will reestablish the minefields and build new fortifications. I'm not sure why you don't see how that could be an issue?

No more cases where Eric Holder hides documents that hide those accountable for sending hundreds of guns to the Mexican cartels. No more cases where the Clintons hide the extent of her secret emails. No more cases Louis Lerner hides who was part of the plan to weaponize the IRS against conservatives. No more where Biden's son can hide secret payments from foreign governments and shady lobbyists for his "art". Anyone who refuses to testify as the law requires, goes to jail.

  1768.  @kathythompson5438  That is short sighted. For example, the Mexican government had no interest in keeping migrants from moving through Mexico until Trump sent money to Mexico for various purposes. The US rarely gives money without it benefitting the US in some way.

  1867.  @charonboat6394  Poland's Law and Justice party doesn't even respect Poland's constitution, so it is hypocritical to for them to say that EU is overstepping by asking Poland to follow the treaty obligation (and a requirement for any functioning democracy) to have judicial independence. If Poland and Hungary has such an issue with their treaty obligations, then they can Brexit.

Due to extreme levels of corruption from the top down, Russia can't compete economically with the EU nations, so Putin uses violence to try to prevent these countries from making trade deals. Putin doesn't like NATO, because it prevents him using violence to keep countries subservient to him.

Economists use satellite images of pollution as more accurate indicator of GDP in China than the numbers coming from the Communist government. China won't even release the death count of national disasters to cover up miss management. So no, I don't trust any of numbers coming out of China about their prison population or their concentration camps.

  1909. Under communism, the economy never got high enough to dip.

  1910.  @theshadowman1398  That is just silly. It would be like Saddam Hussein saying Kuwait is the warmonger.

  1911.  @Pyrrhic.  Keynesians believe that recessions are inevitable. Also, you can't have infinite Keynesian stimulus, because this government debt will eventually need to be paid for. The theory is you pay for it during good times by having a tax surplus. In reality, the stimulus payments continue until it causes a economic collapse that the government no longer has the good credit to handle.

  1920. Blame Europe. Instead of leaving strong institutions like the US did with Germany, Japan, and the Philippines, Europe left their colonies with a culture of patronage and ethnic rivalry.

  1921.  @theforsakeen177  Neither is good farmland. As one has little nutritions in the soil and the other one requires heavy irrigation.

  1922. The EU doesn't want it as it hurts the profits of European farmers. Special Interests groups at work.

  1923. You know the Venezuela oil industry collapsed because they scared off American investors? I'm not sure what is so evil about using foreign money to buy the equipment needed to increase productivity in exchange for the foreign investor getting a cut of the new increased productivity?

  1924. The worst part is that these people aren't getting rich by producing value, but instead are only getting rich due to government connections.
    3
  1925.  @acevaver5425  You are characterizing only one aspect of demand, while ignoring other aspects. Few countries prefer to have Chinese yen as a reserve currency, because there is little faith in the long term stability of the currency compared to wealthy democracies. This is because there are no checks on the power of a Chinese autocratic to destabilize the currency with things like capital controls and intentionally trying to devalue it. The key to the dollar's high demand is trust in its stability.
    3
  1926.  @richinoable  I'm not a fan of Trump at all. I just don't think elected state officials should be deciding who is and isn't allowed to run without due process. Should Texas' MAGA Attorney General have the power to take Biden off the ballot based on what "they believe" is an attack against America?
    3
  1927. What about the due process part of the 14th Amendment? It would be different if Trump was convicted by a jury of his peers. Elected officials shouldn't be making these decisions.

  1935.  @gloryakiepper7918  The deregulations on the rail breaks only applied to trains carrying dangerous cargo. The train that was derailed didn't fit in that category. I am definitely not a fan of Trump, but blaming him is categorically dishonest.

  1937. ​ @davidpaul6656 There is nothing preventing Congress from impeaching a previous president. This would remove his ability to run and remove some benefits former presidents get like secret service protection.

  1938. The evidence shows the conspiracy, but Cohen's testimony is necessary to show Trump's intent to commit in the conspiracy, which is a requirement for conviction. The jury needs to trust Cohen for the People to win their cass.

  1946.  @keathp2744  Nixon was very intelligent and had a great resume, too.
    3
  1947. Breyer is advocating legislating from the bench. Textualism and originalism are the best ways to keep lawmaking out of the hands of unelected judges. That being said, I also would argue that the Dobbs case was a violation of conservative principles by ignoring precedent.
    3
  1948.  @UkraineNeeds  The technology is a jetski engine, GPS, basic explosives, and commercial drone technology. If it was American, then it would be overengineered and cost 100x more. You are an example why "Russian intelligence" ship is an oxymoron

  1965. Wasn't Trump the one too scared to confront President Pooh about Muslim concentration camps, threats against Taiwan, and dismantling Hong Kong democracy?
    3
  1966. This is just embarrassing. Trying to make a town no one has even heard of last week sound more important than the loses in Kherson, Kiev, and Kharkiv is just a sign of desperation. In addition, trying to spin the Russian war crimes against civilians as something humanitarian is simply horrifying.

  1968.  @MM-cl7vv  Obama literally pulled out every American soldier and the number of Iraqi deaths skyrocketed. This is because the Iraqis kept squabbling over minor differences in religion and ethnicities.

  1978. At the time, that was true. The debate change it.
    3
  1979. Let's be honest. Any Trump opposition to McCarthy's agenda will result in its failure. This means that McCarthy has to beg and thank Trump for any straps the former president gives him. This is concerning as Trump wants to see America burn in retaliation for rejecting him and his proxies over and over.

  1983.  @nickmartin8495  Since 2020, California’s overall homeless population has increased about 6%, compared to just 0.4% in the rest of the country. California must have had a lot of snow before 2020. 🙄

    3
  1985. Its time for a NATO no fly zone by the border
    3
  1986. This is how politics is supposed to sound like. We are supposed respectfully debating ideas and save criticism for bad policy. Instead we Democrats lump in everyone who voted Republican as fascists and racists, and have Republicans categorizing Democrats as pushing America towards a Communist, minority-run apartheid system. It is disingenuous and leads us to ignoring actual critical thinking about policy and laws.

  1993. Name the crime.

  1994. The capabilities of the Ukrainians aren't that impressive. The West didn't give enough tanks, and air support and air defense is very limited. The success of this operation is going to be mostly based on Russia troops squandering their advantages again. We won't know if that is the case until the offensive starts.

  2005.  @FreezyAbitKT7A  Media companies are made up of people who have a bias and agendas, so a little skepticism is healthy. I found primary sources tend to be the only thing they trust outside of their echo chamber. For example, many claim that Biden has never renounced violence from the left. They may not trust CNN or WSJ saying he has done it before, but it would be difficult to deny their own eyes when they see a clip of Biden saying rioting and looting are unacceptable. In other words, don't take the easy way out.
    3
  2006.  @franimal007  Demonizing the opposition and refusing to hear out the other side is the only bipartisan thing left in America. The left calls everyone on the right "fascist" and "racist". Meanwhile, the right calls everyone on the left "fascist" and "communists". Either way, the other side is characterized as such deplorables that they are not even worth talking to.

  2014. @MaryLopez-em3rc  I was talking about the legal fees based on the crimes that he did in office. I'm pretty sure using campaign funds to pay off personal debt is what the FBI arrested Santos for.

  2015.  @J_Madison  If Russia is doing so well economically, then why did the government stop making economic data public? If things are as great as you claim, then what are they hiding?
    3
  2016.  @J_Madison  Russian imports are down almost 30% due sanctions cutting Russia off from many markets including many Chinese and Indian companies who voluntarily pulled out of the small Russian market instead of risking being blocked from doing business with much bigger markets.

  2020.  @bachelor3846  Based on your statements, Russia doesn't recognize Democracies unless they are significantly Pro-Russian. Otherwise, Russia needs to send troops in to prop up the minority vote. Obviously, Russia doesn't care about self determination or they wouldn't have murder so many Chechens and other non-ethnic Russians for seeking independence from Russia. Your Obama comparison was off. A more accurate comparison to Russia's claim that Ukraine is run by Nazis would be to accuse Obama of being the white supremacists leader of the US. It is obviously stupid.

  2021.  @andreimoutchkine5163  Russia is the one who tried to overthrow the Ukrainian democratic elected government. When that failed, they used their forces to attempt to annex Ukrainian land to Putin's new Russian empire. Obviously, Russia is the one acting like 20th century fascists.

  2023. The numbers look good, but there are a lot of assumptions made. Will the cost efficency stay constant as we build these massive installations outside the sunniest and windiest lands? For example, it make more economic sense to build a solar plant in Las Vegas, while a natural gas would be cheaper in area with more cloud cover like Seattle.

  2039.  @corayye4099  When the administration refuses to enforce the immigration laws, then there isn't a point to them. Instead of protecting the border, the administration invites illegals in and grants residency as "refugees" even though they aren't refugees.

Also, unemployment typically only applies when you are laid off through no fault of your own. I have denied unemployment to fired employees who stole from the company and those who didn't show up to work without calling.

  2061.  @DavidHalko  That is why it is a "curve." If you cut taxes when they are too high, then the economic boost will bring in more revenue. (Reagan) When you cut taxes when they are relatively low, then you get a huge drop in taxable revenue as the economic needle won't move as much. (Bush/Trump)

If you restrict the already limited number of people who are willing and able to buy large apartment complexes, then builders may be less willing to take the risk of building more housing. While there needs to be restrictions on market dominance to avoid monopolistic behaviors, it is dumb and unnecessary to restrict market participants from financing new projects based on your irrational disdain of people making money.

  2064.  @alanrobertson9790  You are conflicting yourself. First, you claim that there is something inherit to these cultures that makes their governments fail, but when one mentions the negative effects colonialism had on the culture, you deny that culture matters. Also, having a foreign colonizer write your constitution and then leave you to have your first election is hardly the environment for a deep democratic tradition. Just look at the difference between the after effects of the American and French revolutions. America had state democracies for decades while France had the undemocratic three estates. America republicism thrived while the French turned to Napoleon.
    2
  2065.  @alanrobertson9790  Again. Not all colonialism is the same. India has local princes rule much of the country, so they weren't left without any governing experience. You also don't know much history if you are unaware of the hundreds of thousands who died in ethnic/religious conflicts following the departure of the British. Meanwhile, Australia, America, and New Zealand had their own independent governments and were mostly just expected to follow British foreign policy and pay taxes.
    2
  2066.  @alanrobertson9790  Not all colonialism is the same. America, for example, has built up the Philippines democratic institutions in preparation for the Philippines' eventual independence. Meanwhile, the British in Africa dismantled any institution that didn't leave the locals dependent on UK administration, and they pitted ethnic groups against one another as a form of divide and conquer. The Philippines were left with a democratic tradition and capable administrators. Meanwhile, Africa was left with ethnic conflicts.

  2070. De-dollarization is a myth. China is the only one capable of making it possible, but it would require the Communist Party to abandon capital controls, embrace the rule of law with an independent court system, and open their market to direct investment. None of this is remotely likely.

  2071. A lack of transparency, no rule of law protections, and a political system that swings the economy based on the autocrat's whims is a scary place to invest in.

  2075.  @robertofernandez7773  Protectionism protects special interests over a country's overall economy. This is especially true as the EU and US aren't developing countries with infant industries and undeveloped infrastructure.

  2078. @sng1867  My neighbor in my apartment complex makes more money than me, but gets government benefits due to him not reporting most of his income. I had a good laugh when he didn't get approved for a home loan due to the bank not thinking he made a big enough income. Meanwhile, I just got pre-approved from the bank.

  2079. People use to misuse the term for any right-wing policies they don't like or as a label for parties that are xenophobic and have an authoritarian bent. However, parties in Hungary, Germany, Russia, France, and Italy are actually pushing for similar populist economic policies that is more aligned with historical fascism than traditional conservative economics that promote economic freedom and fiscal responsibility.

  2081.  @manjushagongale  A) Violent crime is lower per capita from immigrants than citizens B) Crime rates in autocracies are false as criminals, police, and politicians are all on the same team. C) Your antidotes are meaningless. Every city has slums that foreigners don't visit. For example, if a visitor never leaves Manhattan, then the US feels like the safest country on earth.

Nope. *Georgia didn't modernize like Ukraine. *Georgia doesn't have an easy supply route for weapons like Ukraine. *Georgia doesn't have the advantage of a large territory and large population like Ukraine. *NATO doesn't have a lot of spare weaponry to give. While Russia has never been weaker, Georgia would not win the conflict. Their best bet is to act when the Kremlin is distracted with internal issues like a coup attempt.

I never assumed that Rubio would not have my best interests at heart due us being in a different ethnic groups. Apparently, many Hispanics and African Americans don't make the same assumptions.

  2112. Military analysts made their predictions based on promised Western support that arrived in smaller amounts than promised and arrived too late. The military predictions were solid. The political predictions were off.

  2113. It doesn't seem reasonable for you expect small business owners to save enough money to not go out of business in case the government shuts them down month after month. Most corporations do keep more money on hand during economic uncertainty. Many of those who didn't, went into bankruptcy. Instead of pushing for your Communist class struggle, use some common sense.

    2
  2135. The EU is now spending a greater amount on Ukrainian than the US.
    2
  2136. What is with the Russian fallacy about their population size directly translating to troop size? Russians will not accept mobilization like Ukrainians do. There is a cap to the amount of troops Russia can afford to recruit. Russians see this as a poor man's war to fight, while Ukraine is mobilizing the entire male population of a certain age.

  2137. Donald Trump I went in yesterday and there was a television screen, and I said, ‘This is genius.’ Putin declares a big portion of the Ukraine — of Ukraine — Putin declares it as independent. Oh, that’s wonderful.

  2138.  @robbrown4621  Russian military losses are hidden and rounded down a few decimal points, while the loses by the "People's Republics" and PMCs simply aren't counted. Since they aren't counted, their loses are more easily ignored by the public.

  2139.  @burnttoast111  Everyone knew it was a losing cause without US support. We could have for relatively cheaply kept the Afghan government in power forever if we just continue to operate one or two military bases in the country.

  2140. Nothing. It was an off handed comment that was rejected by the rest of NATO.

  2141. Seems risky for NK. The hermit kingdom has very few resources. Without any spare capacity, the starving country would have to pull resources from the agriculture sector to build weapons and to supply soldiers. This means the country will be dependent on Russia to be a reliable trade partner to keep the nation fed.
    2

  2224.  @Lewd_Fox  Every step in the supply chain is value adding. For example, getting iron ore from the ground gets a cheap commodity. Turning that iron ore into steel adds value. Turning that steel into an automobile adds value. American manufacturing doesn't make a lot of cheap crap that requires unskilled labor, like what is commonly made in China. US manufacturing is now dominated by college graduates (white collar) using advanced technology to make high-end goods like medical equipment, cars, air planes, and highly specialized technology.

  2225. Intellectual property theft and dumping to drive competitors out of business isn't good economics. The West was just too weak willed to stand against China's unfair trade practices until it was too late.

  2239.  @ryngrd1  I have no issue with asking God for support or to ask God to do something that is out of your hands. My issue is when people offer prayers as a substitute for taking any actions themselves. God helps those who help themselves.

  2240.  @ryngrd1  It seems morally bankrupt to ask God for help, because one is unwilling to take action themselves.

  2242.  @awkwardllama0509  My views are based on my own experience. The union protects terrible employees who should be fired. Instead, the rest of us have to pick up their slack. Also, the "more pay" only goes to employees with seniority even when they terribly workers. Meanwhile, new, hardworking workers will often leave for a job with better entry level pay. Generally, the employees who love unions tend to be the lazier ones with false senses of entitlement.

America has to be the world's policeman, because no one else is willing. They just want to criticize anything that goes wrong, while silently benefiting from the stability America brings.
    2
  2253. You know Al Qaeda attacked America first right? Climb from under your rock and Google 9/11. I also don't understand how people think they have the moral high ground for thinking NATO shouldn't destroy planes and tanks that Gaddafi was using to kill protesters and then uninvolved civilians. The West's only fault in Libya was they abandoned the country when it came time to rebuild the country after the war.

  2264. The Baltic countries just want America troops (payed by America taxpayers) to defend them, so they can continue to ignore their treaty obligations to have military spending at 2% of GDP.
    2
  2265.  @antyspi4466  You are missing the point. Germany and other NATO are supposed to mobilize and send troops to bail out the Baltic states if they are invaded by Russia. The Ukraine crisis has shown how incapable most of these European countries are when it comes to basic logistics and maintenance. If it takes them months to repair and send weapons to Ukraine, then they will probably take too long to send troops to save the Baltics.
    2
  2266. It is less of a spending issue and more of a growth issue. Most of the issues with the French economy would be solved if the citizens would just work. No taking the month of August off, no giving exceptions for people to retire in their 50s, no 35-hour work weeks, etc. Protectionism and stimulus aren't solving anything.

  2268.  @richardgallagher4880  Again. Until a few weeks ago, Russia was the one about to surround Bakhmut. No one said it was the Ukrainians. Why you claim otherwise is probably due to you mixing antifreeze into vodka. More recently, the Russians fled the flanks of the city to leave Wagner forces at risk the same encirclement risk Ukrainians use to face.

  2269.  @KilmerTrotter  If a nation continues to break their treaty obligations, then why should the other side agree to hold up their half of the deal. Orban ignores EU laws and values, so why should members continue to send money to Hungary and give them veto rights to EU policy?

    2
  2276. If they even want to take it. They could just put it under siege by cutting off resupply while sending missiles to destroy the Russian port and airfields. The siege may be enough to force a negotiation given enough time.
    2
  2277.  @6.5x55  Sure, but most have separate bilateral defense alliances with the US and UK. Most Eastern European countries don't even trust western continental Europe to hold up Article 5 anyway, and they are mostly relying on the US security blanket when they joined NATO. Either way, getting directly involved in Belarus is a bad idea. It would be best to wait for a color revolution resulting from an unpopular mobilization.
    2
  2278. @Linus  My point is that your statements don't sound like you respect the self-determination of countries. In addition, many of your compatriots are pigging backing off your comments to say that the non-Romanian speaking minorities should be ignored if Moldova was to vote to rejoin Romania. From an outsider, you all don't sound that different from the Russian trolls. I guess I just don't understand your old world thinking. Why would a century old monarchy even matter?
    2
  2279.  @munnakhan8961  G7 is not dominated by the US. In fact, Trump used to hate G7 meetings because the other leaders ignored him as he rejected the organization's objectives to encourage free trade, democracy, human rights, and a fight against climate change.

As the number of passport holders in regions grows, the foreign nation then invokes its national interest in defending its citizens by promoting the independence or annexation of these regions. Generally considered a violation of international law.

Also, the Iraqis only beat ISIS with American air support -- the thing Biden took away that lead to the collapse of Afghanistan.

The longer people have been in the company, the more they know how to navigate the rules to do the bare minimum without getting fired. Meanwhile, new workers are eager to learn and work. Of course, the new worker won't see that pay increase because it is reserved for the old timers according to a union contract that forbids merit pay or expectations of productivity.

  2363.  @julesnagbunga1204  Hunter isnt qualified to do much of anything, so there are a lot of red flags when foreign entities pay him millions for almost nothing. He wouldn't be earning all this money without being related to Papa Joe, so clearly foreigners are paying the son in hope of getting access to VP Biden. This goes from unethical to illegal if Hunter is taking money with promises of influencing his father's decisions. There currently isn't any direct evidence of qui pro quo, but there is enough circumstantial evidence to merit an investigation into any wrong doing.
    2
  2364. The criminal activity of the Trump family and the criminal activity of Hunter Biden aren't mutually exclusive. It shouldn't matter what party someone is part of or if they are related to the president. If a crime took place, then there should be an investigation.
    2
  2365. Even if you love Biden, do ya'll really think he won't interfere with an investigation of his son? An independent council is best way to make sure the investigation doesn't have political interference from Trump or Biden. Barr already investigated voter fraud and came up with nothing. Why do we need to do this same investigation over and over?

My guess is that you eat up the same crap that CNN spews, but from the opposite end of the political spectrum.

  2398. @milan6884  What resources did America steal? Everyone talks about Iraqi oil, but Iraqi oil is owned by the Iraqis, extracted by European/Asian oil companies, and shipped to European/Asian markets.
    2
  2399. Russia is the 2nd largest exporter of grain and Ukraine is the 3rd largest exporter of grain. How do you think American economic and security interests will do in Africa and the Middle East when Russia will have unilateral control of these countries' food security?

  2400. ​ @jonathannelson103  Are we talking about how Trump has been lying for four years how the election was stolen?
    2
  2401. It's not your job to be offended on behalf of black people. Speaking on behalf of a marginalized group is condescending due to you telling the group how you, as an outsider, believe they should feel instead of just listening to what they have to say.

  2402. @Annabella dragonlady  You might of thought that, but that isn't what you said.
    2
  2403.  @pickledragonrebel  Ignoring congress is easy because they have to rely on the Justice Department to enforce the subpoena. Ignoring the Justice Department directly is a whole other matter.

  2404. According to Trump, VP Harris has the power to reject any election results that she doesn't like.
    2
  2405.  @bdavid19922  CNN doesn't decide. Trump and Biden said no.
    2
  2406. You, too, could go to jail for fraudulently reporting a business expense to cover up an illegal campaign contribution to a corn star.

  2409.  @AliMoha-xw5rb  Did that mall of women and children that you targeted a couple of days ago pose a threat to Russia?
    2
  2410. The United States doesn't invade it's neighbors, so Canada and Mexico don't request foreign missle shields. Maybe this wouldn't be an issue if Russia would stop attacking it's neighbors.

  2414.  @chuletaization  A) Vietnam was a French colony; it was not an American colony. America was fighting for the democratic South. B) You act like the French never had slavery when the reality is that their brutality only ended by a violent slave revolt. C) Going to gloss over Vichy France, the ideological predecessor of the Popular Front?

  2418.  @hannibalbarca7220  It unconstitutional to revoke a pardon, so no, Biden can't do anything about this

  2419. Educating people is pointless nowadays. Facts and stats that conflict with their viewpoints are "fake news".

  2420. I pretty sure if Abrams are behind the defense line, Russia's famous artillery is going to try to run as quickly as possible.
    2
  2421. The area of breakthrough is going to be small and concentrated. Quality will be important.
    2
  2422.  @davidmccann9811  The opposite. If the capital had fallen, the Russians would have shifted forces to other parts of Ukraine. The fighters in Mariupol know the same would happen there, so the Ukrainians are fighting hard to defend rubble to keep the Russians from moving to new fronts.
    2
  2423. I thought Western Europe would have abandoned Ukraine by now. I'm glad i have been proven wrong.

  2426. There aren't enough Gripens to be worth talking about. *Sweden still needs them as they have yet to join the NATO umbrella. *Hungary is a big supporter of Vladimir Putin and his fascist ideology, so they aren't going to send their stockpile. *Brazil's new president seems to be more aligned with the authoritarian socialism of Venezuela and Cuba, then with democratic Ukraine. *South Africa has aligned itself with the Russian war effort *Czech Republic doesn't have enough jets to spare
    2
  2427. After retreating from Keiv, Kherson, and Kharkiv, the Russians are due for a win -- even if it is just a small town of rubble.
    2
  2428. They said 2 dead. 10 wounded.

  2429. To be fair, Israeli leadership keeps saying protecting civilians isn't a priority. They also seem to make little distinction between Palestinians and Hamas.
    2
  2430. Meanwhile, Russia is asking for military support from Iran and North Korea. Next, Putin will beg Venezuela for financial support.

  2435. Bell is a good analyst
    2
  2436. That is because he was only posting what the GRU (Russian military intelligence) gave him. He is Russian asset pretending to be a journalist.
    2
  2437. The Russian asset should be in jail for exposing Afghan informants on Wikileaks who were then tracked down and murdered by the Taliban. There is blood of good, brave people on his hands and he deserves to suffer for it.
    2
  2438. Russia need to protect their asset.

  2450. @Jamshaid Mushtaq  He can't be worst than Trump or Biden

  2451. Personally, I don't think currect politicians are a good idea as topics. Current politics makes biases too fresh and the living are still doing stuff that could change their legacies.

  2453.  @hydra5879  While an immensely influential politician and Senator, he never was able to become president (which is the main reason he isn't well known).
    2
  2454.  @kazohinia5751  Who cares? PPP is bad measure of economic size, because it is largely effected by currency manipulation and trade protections. GDP is a better measure.
    2
  2455.  wolf tone  Who cares? Iran-Contra is a unwashable stain on his legacy, but his involvement in rooting out Soviet sympathisers in Hollywood is so trivial that it is barely worth taking about. In fact, what he did isn't any different from Hollywood executives blacklisting conservative actors today.
    2
  2456.  @internetual7350  Not man made? The government took ownership of all the farms and then exported the food for sale as the farmers starved. That is not an act of God. How can you call something an opposition when by law they are required to agree with the Communist Party? Plus, almost every election had one candidate. That wasn't because 100% of people agreed the communists were the best choice.

    2
  2466. Still no Woodrow Wilson? The founder of the modern Democratic Party.
    2
  2467.  @bigdopamine9343  Neither really applies: *Biden has poor policy choices that lead to inflation, a border crisis, and a complete collapse of Afghanistan. He is also advocating for the biggest government expansion since LBJ. *Trump on the other hand had little involvement or interest in government policy and basically got out of the way of businesses. This lead to one the biggest economic expansions in America history. However, Trump was also the biggest drama queen who who poisoned everything he touched to satisfy his ego. He was a better president when he was playing golf.

  2472.  @bjornodin  Strong institutions are the only good way to limit abuses of power. Expecting politicians to practice restraint or good judgment based solely on their character is ridiculously naive.

    2
  2479.  @cachifli870  I know Critical Race Theory is everywhere, but not everything is about slavery including the American and Texas Revolutions. While many in Texas were pro slavery, it wasn't as economically important as the American South, because the slave population was small and cotton didn't grow well. Bigger issues were restrictions on immigration, restrictions on guns, higher taxes, and a lack of representation. Unless you think ever rebellion against Santa Anna's central state was a pro-slavery fight for states rights?

  2483.  @MrTheophilos13  Russia is only country currently invading their neighbor to expand its ethnic reich.

  2484. That is like saying America needs permission from Russia to sanction Russians.
    2
  2485. I'm guessing they recruit farmers because they have experience working on tractors.
    2
  2486. Modi is heavy on handshakes and light on action. India will join any organization that gets them an international photoshoot, but India's leaders refuse to agree to any action.
    2
  2487.  @kzm-cb5mr  Those who joined the EU agreed to follow certain values like rule of law, fair elections, free speech, independent judiciary, free press, etc. If they didn't agree with those principles, then why join the EU?

  2488.  @catlover7971  I'm sure the very few sent were very useful after extensive repair.

  2489.  @catlover7971  Broken and poorly maintained artillery pieces still aren't impressive. Maybe Germany should stop worrying about hurting Putin's feelings and send something other than ammunition and helmets.
    2
  2490. Ukraine is a country of 44 million who has plenty of young men who can and will fight. They just don't have enough equipment to arm every volunteer.
    2
  2491. Ok grandpa.
    2
  2492.  @JMulvy  I guess my comment went over your head. No no wonder you dropped out and want a bailout
    2
  2493.  @JMulvy  We already have seen that massive government stimulus causes inflation that the poor pay for the most. Now, college educated adults who make an average of $1 million more over their lifetime are getting a big payout at the expense of everyone else. In addition, there are already multiple other programs to help dropouts pay of their debt. Dropouts tend to be too unmotivated to even apply.
    2
  2494.  @arlenehenry1097  Trump's daddy issues are so bad that he is completely terrified of the possibility of losing. His fear is so extreme that he is willing overthrow over two centuries of American democracy instead of admitting that he lost to Sleep Joe. Clearly, Trump is broken.
    2
  2495. At least she has evidence of her claims unlike Trump's election fraud claims.
    2
  2496. Another self centered American making every topic about their trivial partisan issues.
    2
  2497. It is refreshing to get "truthful" answers from Trump about there was no drugs coming over the border during his pregnancy and how Putin didn't have troops in Ukraine when he was in office.
    2
  2498.  @relaxman-tu1tp  Nonsense. I know immigrants and their children who are way more patriotic than 4+ generation Americans.

  2499.  @johnherold7289  Are you six years old?

  2500.  @rtquest22  Your solution to fighting inflation is to not pay social security to seniors. Where you dropped on your head as a child?
    2
  2501.  @bigdaddyleroy1915  A serious argument on budget issues would involve repealing Trump's over generous corporate tax cuts and rolling back Biden's spending spree. However, neither side is serious about the deficit. For crying out loud, what does the border have to do with the debt ceiling? Should Republicans hold out on Biden banning gay marriage too?
    2
  2502.  @rtquest22  So, your solution is to just not pay for those programs? That is moronic
    2
  2503. Do you think weed and tobacco are going to cover 150% of American GDP?
    2
  2504. I love the argument that he didn't commit bank fraud because he committed tax fraud instead. People don't have two sets of books when they are obeying the law.

  2505. Jailed for what? Opposing Trump? What kind of fascist regime do you want your Supreme Leader Trump to run?
    2
  2506.  @Tolohtony  What about fighting the Taliban instead of arming them?
    2
  2507. I disagree. I want the government to secure our border. Do your Job Brandon!
    2
  2508.  @hughjanus5518  Is the "Nigerian prince" your grandma sent money to innocent of a crime because she should have done more due diligence to see if the person was lying? Trump's "due diligence" argument is that the victim is to blame for not seeing through the fraudster's lies.
    2
  2509. Trump ❤ Putin
    2
  2510. Putin First!
    2
  2511. Do we actually think Trump had a well thought policy? He straight up admitted he doesn't even know who the current NATO Secretary is.
    2
  2512.  @goofyahhh254  Is this another antisemantic conspiracy?
    2
  2513.  @Dudeman9339  It is a limiter that prevents the majority from forcing their will on the other half of the country without seeking a compromise. Both parties were okay with arrangement until the progressive wing took hold of the Democrats. These progressives don't believe in limitations on government power, so that is why they want to stack the court and get rid of the filibuster.

  2514.  @christophersleight19  Every time she tried to explain how the statistical bias of data, he had the same deer in the headlights look you probably did. I'm not your teacher. There is plenty of open sources to explain how bad sampling and bias can make bad studies.
    2
  2515. I wish the Senator understood how studies and statistics work, because he clearly doesn't.
    2
  2516. Trump doesn't have allies. He has pawns or enemies.

    2
  2522.  @jerometruitt2731  If there is a lesson from Putin in Ukraine or Biden in Afghanistan, then the lesson is some narcissistic leaders are only going to want to hear what they want to hear. Considering that the Chinese president banned jokes on Pooh bear, I'm guessing his generals are only going to tell him what he wants to hear too.

    2
  2525. The Speaker is the one who said they wouldn't support Ukraine funding without a border deal. That is the whole reason the Senate negotiated the deal. Why the flip-flop?
    2
  2526.  @ChristyReeseNoJohnyNonsense  The border deal gives the president more power to crack down on economic migrants pretending to be asylum seekers, keeps the door up for real asylum seekers, and funds Ukraine in their fight for Western democracy. I see no downside.

    2
  2530.  @scarabeo500gt  Why hide it? These are not jury trials, so it is not like releasing it to the public will taint the jury. How can you not want to see the evidence of how Democrats stole the election?
    2
  2531. @TJ Burton Trump says he has evidence of voter fraud, but he refuses to show any to the public. My faith is in the word of God. Trump's words do not deserve the same faith, so I expect to see evidence to trust his claims.
    2
  2532.  @dauferm  Technically, you don't need a constitutional amendment as states can decide how the electoral college votes. This means if you get states that control 50% of the electoral college to decide to get their representatives to vote for who wins the popular vote, then you functionally have a popular vote.
    2
  2533. The system made sense in 1776, and to change it, two-thirds of the country would have to agree to an alternative.

  2535.  @dylanshaffer2184  False. They do get social security. They just don't qualify for Supplemental Security Income. Maybe read articles instead of just the headlines.

  2536. Correct me if I'm wrong, but attorney-client privilege only protests the client against the attorney. The attorney can't silence the client from reporting on the attorneys' wrongdoings.

  2537. The Republicans on the call are the ones who are destroying their careers by standing against Trump in order to respect a Democrat win. Also, who do you think leaked the call? I doubt many Democrats politicians would do the same in their shoes.

    2
  2541.  @KizzleLife89  Democrats are the only ones asking for the SALT tax cuts for the rich to be added to the bill. Republicans are the ones who got rid of SALT, so they could fund middle class tax cuts.
    2
  2542.  @KizzleLife89  50% agree? I think the Senator count is 51 against, 49 for. Manchin wants to take the time to examine any consequences the bill may cause such as inflation, higher deficits, Medicare insolvency, tax cuts for the rich, est. Democrats want to force it through before Americans have time to find out what is in it. They are even going as far as to accuse Manchin of racism and sexist for not just giving blanket approval.
    2
  2543. CNN and Fox News don't have reporters or journalists anymore. Cable news is just commentators - talking heads that care more about political narratives than facts.

  2550.  @richardgross3794  "desanctimonious" was too confusing for the uneducated MAGA crowd
    2
  2551.  @dylanclay2741  Whataboutism is a logical fallacy, which attempts to discredit an opponent's position by charging hypocrisy without directly refuting or disproving the argument. There is no defense of Trump's actions, so his allies will always change the topic with a "What about..."
    2
  2552. Only Trump did poorly, while down ballot Republicans still performed very well, so I'm not worried about a Blue shift unless the GOP shifts to Trumpism over traditional conservative values in the next election cycle.

  2553.  @MeOhMyOh2324  Houston proper is only liberal by Texas standards. In addition, the surrounding suburbs are very Republican.

  2558.  @x3dave668  Fox News opinion hosts are as garbage as the rest. Opinion host don't care about facts. Their primary job is to echo the opinions of their viewers and they do this refusing to address facts that might conflict with viewers' opinions. Maddow, Lemon, Carlson, and anyone like them are the downfall of intellectual thought in politics.

    2
  2562. ​ @paulbowden4842 Inflation, immigration, Afghanistan, fracking, etc. There were a lot of questions Harris didn't want to answer, but she prepared before hand. Meanwhile, Trump obviously did zero debate prep for questions that were obviously going to be asked.

  2563.  @terryohay3494  I don't remember this much incompetence during Obama

  2564. The only thing standing in the way of the Biden agenda is Democrats not having enough votes. Welcome to representative democracy.
    2
  2565.  @Thekulprit92  Speaker Mike Johnson in Oct. '23 “First, I explained that supplemental Ukraine funding is dependent upon enactment of transformative change to our nation’s border security laws." Johnson got what he asked for, but he doesn't want to vote on it because he wants an open border to help the Trump campaign.
    2
  2566.  @sd19510  True. 90% of Ukrainian funding is spent in American to support American workers.
    2
  2567. A Ukraine funding bill was very popular in Congress, but Republicans said they would only vote it if there were more border restrictions. Republican and Democrat Senators negotiated the details, and now there is a border deal that gives Republicans what they asked for. Then Trump called Johnson and said to tank the bill to help Trump's political campaign.

  2596.  @fordfairlane662dr  Even though I wouldn't rule it out, there isn't any evidence that is what the lab was used for. In addition, Faucci's role is he gave the lab money for better security to prevent leaks, because the Chinese were unwilling to pay for basic safety precautions. Was it naive and incompetent to believe the Chinese would use the money correctly? Yes. Was it a malicious plan to spread a virus around the world? Of course not. I know Trump doesn't like Faucci, so you don't either, but use some common sense to see through the anti-Faucci conspiracy theories.

  2609.  @tony_1980  To be fair, it wouldn't be the first time a woman got a position that they were deeply unqualified for because a liberal party wanted to appoint a woman to up the party's progressive credentials. With that out of way, it is also sexist to just assume every woman is unqualified without looking at her resume and what the job entails. The two female prime ministers seem very qualified based on the little information I have.
    2
  2610.  @LordOfLight  There is merit in the idea that everyone has the right to a legal defensive. However, this is a case where lawyers are taking money from a war criminal to intimidate a journalist. One needs to get their head checked if they can't see the difference.

Do you think European countries shouldn't have to take Middle East refugees? I'm sure there are good arguments for and against it. Did Germany send the majority of refugees to poorer nations like Hungary. No. That is a bald face lie, because Germany more than practiced what they preached by taking in thousands of refugees.

  2671.  @ChickenVeggi  It not about the amount. It is about the timing. Trump was spending money when everyone was fired or forced to stay home. Biden is spending money when the economy was recovering and unemployment is at a much lower than the number of available jobs. This new spending is causing inflation and encouraging people to stay home instead of looking for a job.
    2
  2672.  @ArawnOfAnnwn  They give them free food, free housing, and free money. It is nice to help the poor, but giving a man a fish feeds him for a day, while teaching a man to fish feeds him for a lifetime. Look at Venezuela where all the oil money went to free stuff for the poor instead of investments. With oil wealth gone, they don't have any other industries due to them having an unskilled labor market and failing infrastructure. Just look at the proposed bills that the American lefties want where they want to spend $6 trillion on free stuff and only $1 trillion on actual infrastructure.
    2
  2673.  @ArawnOfAnnwn  I always find it funny when the Chinese brag about how they have a smaller prison system from the United States, because they execute thousands by firing squad every year without any due process. The ones sent to prison in China also don't tend to live into old age due to the Communist preferring to withhold medical care. I don't think anyone should follow the "justice" system of China where "criminals" are either murdered by the state or too scared to be murdered by the state.

I'm sure Ma's disappearance is also a necessary regulation too. If the communists were concerned about a debt crisis, then they would stop the excess debt collected by state owned companies. The "necessary" financial regulation is all a pretext to crack down on opposition of all forms.

    2
  2728.  @theburden9920  They don't invest in America, because it is a reserve currency. The reserve currency's only benefit to the economy is that it increases purchasing power and it allows government caused inflation to be shared globally. This is not a guarantee of growth (just look at the Carter administration). Foreigners like to invest in America, because our stocks are transparent and high performing. The value of having a reserve currency has been exaggerated by politicians who want create huge deficits while lying that it will not a have a negative effect on the economy.
    2
  2729.  @theburden9920  B.S. What about Germany, South Korea, Isreal, or the UK? These are all developed economies with sizable foreign investment, because there is still plenty of growth opportunities, and investment risk is reduced due to poltical stability and rule of law. Japan's only obstacle from receiving the same investments is xenophobic policies.

If the objective was to have a semi-functional government in the country, so that terrorists organizations can't launch attacks from Afghanistan, then the objective was highly successful under Obama. Under Biden, Al Qaeda and ISIS-K are freed from the prisons and free to reestablish themselves in the country.

  2740.  @thechosenone1533  Putin took over just as gas prices skyrocketed in the 90s. That is luck. Not great economic management. Put then stole the wealth of oligarchs disloyal to him, and gave their billions of assets to his cronies (why else is Putin's Judo coach a billionaire now?). When oil prices collapses or Putin gets sanctioned for bad behavior, the economy and currency collapses. This is because Putin's friends have smuggled the majority of Russian wealth overseas instead of reinvested it within the country. The West hates Putin because he uses his military for deliberate war crimes and because he is active antagonist towards democracy inside and outside his country.

  2741. Terrible metric. Saudi Arabia is America's biggest arms buyer, but they are hardly the closest allies.
    2
  2742. But what would stop a Russian invasion of Ukraine? Ukraine can't cut off Russian gas exports anymore, and Germany would be too energy dependent on Russian gas to sanction Russia.

  2743.  @PutXi_Whipped  Do you deny that China blocks YouTube, because the Communist Party doesn't doesn't trust its own people with outside information? Do you also deny that it is illegal for you to process a VPN in China?

  2754. As an American, I find this offensive.

  2755.  @ch36799  Turkey has a opposition parties in parliament too, but you don't seem to see them as a functioning Democracy.
    2
  2756.  @ch36799  So far. Every autocrat silences the judicial branch first, so there is no check on their ability to jail the opposition or silence the press. Putin and Erodgan removed judicial independence first. Later, they moved onto jailing journalists and the opposition who no longer legal resource to fight trump-up charges. You can see why other democracies worry about Poland's leadership removing any opposition from the courts and replacing then with yes-men. It is the first step of democratic decline.
    2
  2757.  @ch36799  I have feelings you are Polish equivalent of a MAGA red hat in America. There is no point in me having a debate with someone who lives in an alternative reality where every action is justified as long as you convince yourself the opposition are evil conspirators.

  2761.  @SparrowNoblePoland  I agree, but the value of the common market can't be ignored.
    2
  2762. The equivalent in the United States is the government artificially increasing home values for the benefit of boomers that own homes and at the expense of younger, new buyers. Young people need to vote more or the politicians will keep screwing them over without worrying about any consequences.
    2
  2763. The difference with budget management between the private and public sector: Private Sector: If we spend our money more efficiently, then we get more value from each dollar we spend. Government: We need more money!
    2
  2764. Private prisons are run better despite the propaganda. The issue with private prisons is that they use their profits to lobby the government for unfair prison sentences that bring then more revenue streams (incarnated people). I see less of an issue with private housing complexes lobbying for more renters.
    2
  2765. Criticism against Soros has a lot of antisemitic undertones. His biggest detractors hate him do more to conspiracies than his actual actions.

  2766. It seems like politicians with "family values" tend to have mistresses and take bribes. They tend to only be Christian when it is about casting judgment on gays and pregnant women.
    2
  2767. Harris also said she believes the woman who accused Biden of rape. That means Harris is willing to make horrendous, baseless accusations against a person for political gain, or she is willing to support a racist rapist for political gain. Either way, Harris is not a good person.
    2
  2768. She is not the Vice President of the world government.

  2769. France's law enforcement needs to crack down on political violence like the FBI did on January 6 insurrectionists.

  2770. I guess this is what happens when a economy is based on laundering Chinese money.

  2772. False.

  2773.  @aze94  The Americans didn't create Iraqi's intolerance of other ethnic groups, and they didn't create Iraqi corruption. Those are wholly Iraqi-made issues. No stupid metaphor is going to defect blame from Iraqi made issues.

  2774. The French Revolution had the right idea about the monarchy

  2775.  @AsG_4_  Africa is poor because instead of developing good institutions and building infrastructure, colonial Europe stole their resources and left a culture of patronage and ethnic rivalry. This poverty makes it difficult to buy food on the market like Japan and Isreal do.

  2784. Probably Whataboutism about Trump's prosecution.

  2785. I asked a Trumper what Trump could do wrong that could disqualify him in their minds, and she didn't have an answer. She tried Whataboutism, but I had plenty of things that would disqualify a candidate.

  2786. Sanders is the one who labels himself as a socialist. Does he need a dictionary?

  2787.  @bonsaidouglas9180  Constitutional scholars. They know more than your sources: Tucker Carlson & Alex Jones

  2788. Barr protected Trump from the repercussions of his "perfect" phone call and Trump's obstruction of justice. That is not remotely equivalent to Trump's next AG who would lock up critics and overturn elections.

  2792.  @CC-iq2pe  Who did Trump silence with government powers? How did Trump get around these constitutional protections? Your hated of Trump has you endorsing the actions of autocrats in taking over airways to show your propaganda. That makes you a hypocrite in criticizing Trump's complete disregard for the constitution.

  2799. With Trump, we are becoming Putin's Russia including oligarchs, corruption, and jailed opposition.

  2800. After the Trump tax cut, the economic boon lead to very low unemployment. This low unemployment resulted in wage increases as employers had to pay more to both recruit and keep employees. This is much preferable than the Biden strategy of paying people to drop out of the work force if they weren't payed an above market rate. All this did was reduce economic productivity and exacerbated inflation issues.

  2806.  @ForestPark-h4w  Biden is friends with our democratic allies and an adversary to autocratics. Meanwhile, Trump is chummy with autocratics and an adversary to our democratic allies. Why is that okay with you?

  2807. You are taking "secret weapon" too literally.

  2814.  @Nataraja44  You need to use a dictionary. Deal Breaker (in business and politics) a factor or issue which, if unresolved during negotiations, would cause one party to withdraw from a deal Basically, Trump voters are willing to overlook autocracy as long as they think Trump will reverse inflation (even if every economist says he can't).

  2819.  @amolano6830  Why is Trump even campaigning if winning over voters doesn't matter this late in the year? You can't seriously believe that is why he is avoiding the debate. Trump avoids a debate whether with with DeSantis, Haley, or Harris because he doesn't want people to see the contrast between a normal person and his demented mind.
    2
  2820. ​ @ethansleepybear Ukrainian have access to train terminals in Russia that tracks all Russian rail movement (the primary method of moving military equipment for Russia).
    2
  2821.  @monkemode8128  I find the people arguing against Ukrainian military spending disingenuous. The people who complain about the Ukrainian lend-lease line items never talk about cutting anything any other part of the $800 billion/year military spending. The obsession with cutting Ukraine aid only is just authoritarian-leaning ideologues being fed with Russian misinformation. If they think military spending should be spent elsewhere, then why just the obsession with Ukraine aid?
    2
  2822.  @monkemode8128  Most of the equipment sent was already built. Old equipment costs more in maintenance, and some expiring ammunition costs more money to decommission than it does to ship it overseas. Also, the replacement equipment being built increases America's manufacturing base with new skills and technology.

  2831. ​ @zachriley7132 It is interesting that prosecutors are leaving Trump's congressional co-conspirators alone. I wonder if the calculation will change when he leaves Congress.

  2834. The context of the statement is that Soviet generals thought Red Army soldiers were more vulnerable to artillery trying to clear a minefield than rushing across a suspected, so standing orders were to rush across and pray.

  2852. I agree that criminal behavior shouldn't hide behind executive privilege, but Biden was fine with it being used to protect the criminal acts of Lois Lerner, Eric Hold, and the Clintons. Unless Biden is just part of a partisan attack on his rival, I expect Obama's accomplices to be in handcuffs for Contempt of Congress charges.

  2892.  @Sara-he4dn  Biden has been a moderate for 40+ years. Now, he has swung hard left as ego-driven obsession with building a legacy on par with FDR and LBJ. To him, the consequences of his policies don't matter as long as he is in the history books. For example, Biden wouldn't take more time to withdraw from Afghanistan, because he is obsessed with making a self-congratulatory victory speech on the 20th Anniversary of 9/11. Ego-driven.

Industries with few competitors and huge barriers of entry such as airlines, banks, and cable have found that cutting back on customer service is very profitable.

Customer loyalty is also very profitable and costs very little.

  3001.  @SincerelyFromStephen  The current cost of living crisis is due to Keynesian spending and not Reaganomics. Paying people not to work is obviously terrible for productivity and is a leading cause for inflation. Pre-covid, when low unemployment drove higher wages instead of government interference, the inflation rate was a stable 2%. How can one objectively believe that Biden's economy policy is better for the average worker than Reagan's policy was in the 1980s?
    1
  3002.  @SincerelyFromStephen  Nice story, but the facts don't support it. If economic inequality is so detrimental, then why is there an inverse relation with poverty? Obviously, greater economic activity due to low taxes and minimal regulation increases the demand for jobs. Just look at the pre-covid US economy when wages were going up to due to low unemployment making companies compete with higher wages.

  3003.  @SincerelyFromStephen  While a CEO gets richer at a faster rate than his employees, his employees still have a growing standard of living. It is just petty jealousy to complain that the rich get richer as your quality of life improves. (Btw: Your BS antidotes are disproven by economic data from the Department of Labor.) If you want equality, then look to Cuba and the Soviet Union where there is little economic inequality as the economy stagnates.
    1
  3004.  @SincerelyFromStephen  Economic inequality is just complaining that some people are richer than you, while ignoring the net benefits to everyone. In socialism, Bob and Juan only get a dollar raise due to limited economic growth. In capitalism, Bob gets a $5 raise while Juan gets a $15 raise as increasing productivity produces more for less. Only fools would prefer everyone remaining equally poor instead of Juan getting richer than Bob.

  3005.  @vietimports  I find it funny how arrogant you sound when clearly you have no idea what you are talking about. Gas prices are due to two factors: supply and demand. Biden is responsible for driving up prices on the supply side. Biden's campaign to prevent investment in oil and gas has resulted lower domestic production of gas. He also failed to make up for this shortcoming by convincing Saudi Arabia to supply more to market. Maybe he shouldn't have been so shortsighted by continously insulting their leader. On the demand side, China's zero-covid policy shut down their economy which means they need less oil and gas. This drop in demand has caused the prices to drop temporarily. Why you think Biden deserves any credit for this turn of luck is beyond me.

In addition, most businesses including luxury products are intended to have a short shelf life, so consumers will have spend money on replacing them. The only thing that prevents this is competition that forces businesses to compete on durability. For example, the import of Asian cars to America forced America car makers to make their vehicles last longer in order to not lose sales. (This is true for standard and luxury cars).

Meanwhile, Bitcoin is useless as a means of exchange as it is slow at transactions, requires a lot of energy, and the value fluctuates wildly. Instead of having at least some demand created by a government, Bitcoin value can drop to zero onces the speculation bubble pops.

The ACLU is also concerned that Biden's ban on menthol cigarettes and other tobacco products would "foster an underground market" that would disproportionately harm people of color due to over-policing. Just look at Eric Garner, who died when an officer held him in a chokehold after he allegedly sold cigarettes outside a convenience store. A methol ban is going to increase cases like Garner's as an underground methol market is just going to give the police more excuses to harass African Americans.

It has actually be shown through unethical studies that if you tell kids they aren't as smart, then their performance will drop. Biologically, there is practically zero difference between races. Most differences are social, cultural, or environmental. For example, are black people more sensitive to lung cancer or does the group just smoke more cigarettes?

  3594.  @Josh93B93  It is unlikely the attrition rate is equal as Ukraine captured Kherson with a siege and Kharkiv through a thunder run, while Russia just keeps throwing themselves at heavily fortified positions to capture a few meters/day. Ukraine quality is better. According to Russian paratroopers on Telegram, the recruits sent to help them are poorly trained, poorly motivated, and poorly equipped. This probably due to Russia's mobilization being so desperately quick. Meanwhile, Ukrainians have been training and rotating soldiers for the better part of a year. In addition, NATO equipment seems to be of better quality than ancient Soviet equipment that has clearly not been maintained. Lastly, Russian numbers only look good on paper. The number of troops listed can't all be sent to Ukraine unless the Navy sends all their sailors, the nuclear missle forces abandon their silos, the border guards abandon station, and Russian occupiers leave Georgia and Moldova. After 250,000+ fled the last mobilization, I also question how much reserves Russia actually has.

  3595.  @ExtrovertedCenobite  If there is such a surplus of artillery shells, then why did Russia State TV go from bragging about firing 40,000 shells/day to 8,000 shells/day? If Russia has such a surplus of precision missiles, then why are missile strikes now less frequent, less accurate, and consists of fewer missiles? If Russian causalities are so low, then why did Putin call for a mobilization after promising he wouldn't? Clearly, Russia still has plenty of tanks since they are happy to leave so many behind for Ukraine to have during Russia's lightning retreats. Russia is so generous that they have supplied more tanks to Ukraine during the war that NATO seems stingy by comparison.

  3596.  @ExtrovertedCenobite  You are obviously are very, very gullible as most of your claims can be easily debunked by common sense. For example, why is Russia retreating so much when Ukrainian causalities are so high that it would obviously make their army combat ineffective? If Russia has air superiority, then why are they so incapable of stopping HIMAR attacks? If the Ukrainian army is just preteens and the elderly, then why does Russia need to mobilize hundreds of thousands of men? Your fascist colors are showing by your unabashed glee at the idea of civilians including children dying thanks to Russian war crimes.

Trump also claimed he would have handed everything over everything to the National Archives if they asked, but evidence released from the Trump team shows that the former president refused multiple times to hand over the documents when asked and he even denied having any additional documents.

That’s not accurate enough to tell if someone stopped at a ballot box, or if someone simply walked near the box. If it is a high-traffic area, there are any number of legitimate reasons why someone would be in the vicinity of a ballot box. Delivery drivers, poll workers, election officials — all might have reason to be in the vicinity of numerous drop boxes Certainly, it doesn’t provide enough evidence to uphold the group’s claims about 2,000 mules.

The film presented a single unverified anonymous witness who said she saw people picking up what she "assumed" were payments for ballot collection in Arizona; no evidence of payments was presented in any of the other four states. The film characterizes the alleged operation as "ballot trafficking" with "stash houses", but presents no evidence that ballots were illegally collected to be deposited in drop boxes and does not claim any ballots were unlawful."

  3826. @johnridout6540  Universal tarrifs are harmful for the economy because they disrupt global supply chains, while targeted tarrifs towards unfair trade practices such as dumping is good for the domestic industries. Also, if the sanctions are designed to punish, then there are sanctions that harm the exporter more than the importer. Just look at Trump's trade war with China. Trump basically surrendered with a deal that only benefited China as Trump's universal tarriffs on mostly consumer goods were paid for by Americans, while Chinese targeted tarrifs on American farmers lead to the Chinese consumers to buy from other markets.

Tariffs only make sense as a way to punish countries for unfair tade policies such as Chinese dumping or currency manipulation, or they make sense for national security purposes such tarrifs that protect American defense industry from getting the best deal from hostile nations such as China steel.

It would be wierd to have one if they don't want to leave the union. C) The Falklands never had any Argentine citizens live on those islands. The Brits have been there over a hundred years. D) All those independence movements you described in Europe are actually independence movements and not a foreign power trying to steal land from a neighbor. Crimea and Dombas are more like the Sudetenland where the local ethic Germans wanted to join the Motherland after being brainwashed by fascist propaganda. Putin is literally using the playbook of 1930s Germany.

You also called Zelenskyy corrupt for not going to peace talks that would require Ukraine to give up their sovereign territory, while India won't give Kashmir to Pakistan for peace between the two countries. Hypocrite. India has zero bragging rights for their minimal humanitarian aid, while giving Russia the $billions that are needed to continue Russia attacks on Ukraine civilians. Lastly, EU economies especially Germany's are based on manufacturing high end goods using cheap energy. However, they chose to make sacrifices, while India chooses to profit from Russia's war crimes.

Modi refuses to condemn Russia for their invasion or annexation of Ukraine and goes as far as to support Russia by increasing trade with Russia to fund the war machine. India can pretend they are being neutral, but their actions like China's and North Korea's shows they chose to support Russia. Don't you not think the EU needs oil and gas too when they continue to cut Russia imports? It not like India is at risk of months of freezing temperatures. Basically, Modi and his supporters will use ever excuse to avoid responsibility for choosing to profit from the suffering of Ukrainians.

The only difference is "German" vs "Russian". *Russian leadership is now bragging about their war crimes including targeting civilians and civilian infrastructure. *Half the interviews with Ukraine soldiers are them speaking Russia, so obviously Russian culture still persists even within the Ukraine military. *The only way for Ukraine weapons to be sold in Africa (which is laughable) is for the Russian Navy to be to incompetent to stop the shipments through the Black Sea. *Ukraine expelled the German fascists from their country in WW2 and they will expell the Russian fascists from their country next. *Lastly, country is lead by a Jew.

Putin knew his corrupt economy couldn't compete with the EU, so he uses forces to keep his neighbors in his sphere of influence. The Ukrainian military defeated the few separatists, so Putin sent his little green men to invade. Anyone who thought they were local Ukrainians has some brain damage as they were driving Russian tanks that were not sold outside of Russia.

  3957.  @eget4144  You say that, but America was the one advocating for German tanks in Ukraine instead of America ones. In addition, between the Ukraine War and China aggression in the South China Sea, America arms makers are having difficulty scaling up to meet increasing demands for weapons. This leaves space for others to fill in the gaps.

  3991.  @ulrichbrodowsky5016  You can state something over and over, but it doesn't make it true or logical. NATO has become Europe outsourcing their defense to the US at the American taxpayers' expense. Just look at Germany whose military whose equipment is in such disrepair that anything they shipped to Ukraine quickly broke or didn't have a stockpile of ammo to go with it. If they didn't have US protection, then Germany would have actually a spent money on its military.
    1
  3992.  @ulrichbrodowsky5016  Germany and France pay less, because they know they can get America to do all the heavy lifting. Just look at the conflict in Libya. France and Britain were supposed to lead the mission, but the US had to destroy all the air defenses for them, because the Europeans were unwilling to spend any money on cruise missiles. This means American taxpayers have to spend more money on the military defense of Europe, so the Europeans can spend more money on education and school for Europe. Europe is a continent of freeloaders.

Of course, I assume the actual facts don't matter if they conflict with your narrative. You can't be claiming to "protect the Motherland" when invading a sovereign nation unprovoked. If Russian soldiers are so eager to die for Putin, then why aren't there enough volunteers to prevent a mobilization? Why did so many Russians flee the country when mobilization was announced? Why do Russian soldiers flee the battlefield so quickly?

Meanwhile, Russians only support the war because they naively think it is a limited operation with limited Russian casualties. The longer the war goes on, the more difficulty Putin will have hiding all the dead Russian soldiers from the public. Russian public opinion may have more to do with the war's outcome than territorial control.

  4107.  @Hardcore_Remixer  You either are just lying due to pro-Russian sentiment, or you just don't understand how currency values work. The ruble's high value isn't bringing any advantage to the Russian market. Putin is wasting foreign currency reserves to artificially make the value higher, and the high value of the currency is useless as buying power due to the sanctions making most imports impossible to buy. The EU is not just an economic bloc. There is a Charter of Fundamental Rights that all countries have to follow. Hungary wants to be solely an economic bloc, because they want all the benefits of free money and trade access, but without the other obligations like human rights, fair elections, independent judiciary, and a free press. Lastly, democracy is based on majority rule and not a 100% agreement from one party. The 2% shouldn't stop progressive for everyone else. If Hungarians prefer Russia and their values so much, then maybe it is time to join Belarus in Russia's economic bloc.

That way, you don't read every bill put forth or personally debate on a compromise candidate to run the executive.

If they ban fracking, then it will be replaced with imported oil and coal that put more co2 in the air. Natural gas and nuclear should be major energy producers until they figure renewable energy on cloudy days. It was easier for me to vote more ideological when I was younger because it was just me, but now I got to prioritize my interests over interests of others for the sake of my family. Its unfortunate if that makes me a bad person.

Violence should be expected when you have millions of people convinced that the government is only in power through a stolen election. On top of that, you have Trump praising the insurrectionist on January 6th as heroes who are wrongfully persecuted instead of condemning them for their poltical violence. This only encourages further violence and radicalism. The MAGA fanatics are attacking the capital, election workers, the FBI, and now the families of our elected officials. How are these radicals within the Republican party not enemies of the state when they keep using violence against it?

Now every new poor family is just a drain of resources as they collect more from the taxpayer than they ever add back to the economy. You can have open borders or a large social safety net, but not both. I have no issue with Spanish speakers. English is just a vital component to integrate into the workforce just like basic math and literacy. Lastly, it is foolish to think a centrally planned economy worked back in a time where there was no understanding of inflation, statistics, or even supply & demand.

Our union also mismanaged our healthcare fund, so it couldn't afford our benefits. The union had an opportunity to merge our fund with a bigger union fund to get back all our benefits. The union leadership didn't want to give up their personal control of the fund, so they restricted benefits for part-time workers, increased co-pays, and tripled the deductible. So I do know who was taking my money, and it was people looking out for themselves at the expense of the workers.

If they are paid out through salary or dividends, then the owner can use the money for his or herself. If it is reinvested into the company, then it is used on business expenses like employee paychecks. If you think hiring another employee is a form or tax evasion, then you need to read a basic economics book instead of another $30 Bernie Sanders book.

The same army took back ISIS territory after moral was raised by American support. These troops are confident that they can win with American backing, so when Biden said he didn't care about their fate, moral dipped and they surrendered.

Also, Sterling in the interview explains why they are putting in tougher voting laws. I'm paraphrasing- Trump mislead Republican voters into the delusion that Trump won the election in a landslide despite there being no evidence of this. These gullible Republicans, then demanded tighter voter restrictions from their representatives who then followed through on it. Basically your argument is the common belief fallacy. Just because a lot of people believe something, doesn't make it true. Facts and evidence are more important, and those things point to Trump losing.
    1
  4396.  God wins  CNN doesn't allow links in their comment section, but you could do five minutes of research to find what you are saying is ridiculous. Just look up the Trump - Raffensperger audio to find Trump's lawyer explain how they got their bogus dead voter numbers. (I recommend listening to the whole tape and not the misleading media soundbites). Also, a quick Google search and you find that Georgia did multiple audits and hand recounts, and the results were practically identical. You could also look at the publicly available court documents where Trump's lawyers admit to not having evidence of voter fraud. They say something different in public, because they don't risk perjury by lying to the public. Your blind faith in a politician is pretty sad. Do you also think strippers like you?
    1
  4397.  God wins  Listen to the call Trump had with Raffensperger. Trump's lawyer admits that they based their dead voter numbers by matching the names of people who voted with the names of the deceased. That means that if a John Smith voted and a John Smith is dead, then the Trump campaign counted that as a dead person voting. This ignores the fact that more than one person can have the same name.

  4398. Sterling: "There is no voter fraud." Democrats: "Finally, someone told the truth." Republicans: "Liar!" Sterling: "There is no voter suppression." Republicans: "Finally, someone told the truth." Democrats: "Liar!" Apparently, they are facts if they align with your political views.

In addition, Homeland Security projects the number to keep on growing. If Biden isn't terrified of the press core, then why has he been avoiding answering any questions for almost three months? Half the money is being spent on non-covid related Democrat Wish Lists: *$350 billion for blue state bailouts after decades of budget mismanagement *$270 million for the National Endowment for the Arts and National Endowment *$1.5 billion for Amtrak *$35.5 billion for the Affordable Care Act *$700 billion is allocated to be spent between 2022 and 2031, including 95% of the school reopening money *Not to mention all the million dollar pork projects that go straight to the districts of Democrat representatives
    1
  4401. Good job? Biden created a immigration crisis within a week and spent a trillion dollar on Democrat earmarked pork hidden within a bill designed to spend money fighting covid. His economic plan is to pay states and individuals more money to not go to work which will just give us a lousy Obama-era recovery. There is a reason the man is terrified to talk to the press. Trump was definitely terrible, but Biden has the economic sense and democratic respect of Nicolás Maduro.

I don't like the Clintons, but she was talking about defending against Russian aggression and not to be the aggressor against Russia. Once Russia entered first, her point was moot. On a side note, Russia deserved to be shot down for entering Turkey's airspace.

  4417. Maybe. I think Russian are not okay with their soldiers coming home in body bags. Putin put a lot of effort to hide the amount of dead soldiers during the 2014 invasion. The Ukraine military is significantly better trained and armed than they were 8 years ago, so an invasion would lead to more dead Russians than Putin can politically handle.

  4467.  @NgocNguyen-tk9fp  This was all investigated by Trump's Attorney General and the conclusion is that there was no large scale voter fraud. In addition, Trump appointed Judges threw out all those cases because fake Facebook stories aren't evidence. I usually try to be civil and respect different perspectives, but you seriously need to try to be smarter. Some of those claims don't even need to be research to be debunked. How stupid does one have to be to believe a dead dictator of third world country (who can't even suppy his people with toilet paper) was able to plan years ahead to hack voting machines from the grave? You also can't seriously think half the states decided to buy voting machines from Venezuela or China instead of literally anywhere else? I don't even need to look it up to know that isn't true.

  4509.  @Suno-ta-sei  Due to Russian corruption, the country doesn't have any economic influence or soft power available to influence anyone.

Trump wasn't spinning facts or leaving out context. Trump was fact checked live the three times because his lies were so blatant. There is no context for lies about dog eating or baby murdering accusations. 1. Trump did say that. Even if you could assign more context. 2. Trump refused to say he would veto an abortion ban. How is it a lie if he won't dispute it. 3. Covid unemployment was the highest since the great depression. That is a fact. Again, the statement needed context.

  4651.  @Qwerty35110  American military presence is a stabilizing force that discourages attacks from bad actors. For example, everyone knows Russia is too scared to attack NATO countries, so members like Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia have less economic uncertainty than non-NATO countries like Ukraine, Moldova, and Georgia. Growing, stable economies are good for global trade. I really see little benefit to travel to the moon.

  4652.  @Qwerty35110  That's naive. Putin is pro-Putin. Putin's interests usually align with the Russian people, but he has also shown he is willing to skrew over the Russian people for the benefit of him and his cronies. This isn't unique to Russia, but it is more problematic in Russia due authoritarian crackdowns on government transparency, media, free speech, and opposition parties.

  4653.  @Qwerty35110  Why do Russians have so many scapegoats? If it's not the West, it's Ukraine. If it's not Ukraine, it's the Muslims. Maybe it's time for Russians to start looking at their leaders as the problem instead whoever your leaders are arbitrarily blaming.

  4656.  @Qwerty35110  Yes. The city that the government pumped in billions of dollars into as a propaganda showcase to foreign visitors is pretty. What is your point? I could send you a tourist video of Orlando Florida, but that too would be a mischaracterized representation of a whole country.

  4657.  @Qwerty35110  Russia will invade Ukraine for moving troops in their own country? They sounds hypocritical since Russia keeps saying no one has a right to comment about Russia moving troops within its own borders. Let's also not forget Putin's terror campaign on the Chechens for seeking independence from Russia. It's seems like Putin's demands to respect sovereignty are completely hypocritical.
    1
  4658.  @Qwerty35110  To avoid a Russian invasion, Ukraine needs to further implement an agreement forced on them by a Russian invasion in 2014? How do Russians keep claiming that they aren't the aggressors? Why can't Russian just leave Ukraine alone? This isn't a zero-sum game.

Many of these low-waged people are offered advancement and more pay, but they refuse it, because they rather do the bare minimum and complain that they aren't paid as much as people with skills like mechanics and electricians. The more the government gets involved, the more complicit they are with doing nothing.

  4871.  @milothegreatful  Yes, but I can promise you that these workers are too dumb or lazy to ever pick up the skills required to fix machines. There is a why reason people at Walmart have worked as cashiers at Walmart for twenty years without being promoted or finding a higher paying job outside the company.

The lazy ones that are barely worth $8/hour never leave their minimum wage jobs, because no one would hire them at companies that pay better. Often companies that pay better will fire the lazy worker for being so unproductive.

  4874. How did we get to the point in America where there are mainstream advocates for paying people to stay home instead of working low-wage jobs.

It rather well known that Trump hates to read anything. I can't see him ever going line by line in negotiating a bill in congress. Trump's ex staff are the ones who describe him as uninterested in doing the job, so he delegated everything that didn't involve him being in front of a camera. For the most part, this was a good thing, because (more so at the beginning of his administration) his staff were highly competent at running the federal government. Let's go Brandon.

The case that attracted the most negative attention to Shokin involved the arrest of a Kyiv city prosecutor. During the arrest, authorities seized several million dollars worth of diamonds at the prosecutor’s home. Not only did Shokin release the prosecutor, but he also returned his diamonds. The steady complaint was that Shokin blocked all attempts to have the Yanukovych crooks arrested or any of the billions they had stolen recovered. Shokin successfully blocked any asset recovery, and he did so in a very blatant fashion.

Don't forget that Trump was a Democrat until 2008 when he figured out that questioning whether Obama was born in America got him news coverage. Trump also has tradition liberal beliefs like big government spending, protectionism, and isolationism.

Even with Trump's impulsive trade wars, the market still performed better under Trump than Obama. It is also disingenuous to blame the economic effect of covid on Trump. There is literally no way to avoid an economic downturn when people are trapped in their homes.

Are you a true Republican if you believe in traditional Reagan Republican who believes in small government, free trade, and American's defense of democracy. Or are true Republicans that follow Trump in his big spending, protectionism, and defense of autocratics that say nice things about him?

To assume they were all part of a conspiracy is just abandoning common sense. Trump's Attorney General, Bill Barr, is on tape laughing at the absurdity of the 2000 mules movie. *The tape of the "found" boxes of votes in Georgia that Trump released was obviously edited to imply something that didn't happen. The Republican Secretary of State has released the unedited tape on the state website for anyone to view. It shows that nothing, but regular vote counting happened. It also has been debunked that there was no one else in the room. There were Republican observers, Democrat observers, and the media all there. In addition, the vote counters are being recorded by a cctv cameras at all times. How many obvious lies are you going to believe before you question the people lying to you?

This is why he can be so smart even with social interactions that can seem so unusual. Meanwhile, Trump is likely a malignant narcissist. Most people have difficulty lying because there are certain parts of your brain that light up and even be measured on your face when you feel guilt about being deceptive. Trump obviously doesn't feel guilt for lying or doing anything self-serving. This is charm and fluid ability to lie can make on very good at charming people. On the other side emotional intelligence is where Trump has difficulty. Trump's inflated self-worth and need for admiration make him overly sensitive to slights and easily manipulated by flattery.

The Result: China bought only 57% of the $200 billion committed to purchase under the deal, not even enough to reach its import levels from before Trump's trade war.

This means that there are dozens of countries that can send their Leopard tanks to Ukraine if the Germans weren't so busy trying to appease Putin by not allowing Leopard tanks to be re-exported to Ukraine. Having a uniform tank force will simplify maintenance, logistics, and training. The Challengers are probably more trouble than they are worth, but they were sent because Germany said they didn't want to be the first to send tanks. Of course, the lying Germans moved the goal post by saying UK tanks don't count. I'm sure as soon as Abrams are sent, the lying Germans will move the goalpost again to justify their cowardice.

In 2022, his MAGA candidates lost every swing district they ran in because election fraud conspiracies and Trump's personnel grievances don't matter to independents. This leaves the house with such a small majority that the House is taking orders from Gaetz, a known child sex trafficker. Then, in the Georgia runoff, Trump told Republicans that their votes don't matter due to fictional voter fraud, so they stayed home during the election. Trump basically went out of his way to hand the Senate to Democrats. Following January 6 and Trump stealing classified documents to show off to his friends, Trump has never been less popular than today.

  5623.  @alexeishayya-shirokov3603  Russia is the ones who developed triple tap bombing strategy in Chechnya and then reused the war crime in Syria. (I guess Putin doesn't value Muslim lives.) For those unfamiliar with Russian War crimes, triple tap bombing is when they follow up an airstrike with a secondary airstrike to kill the wounded and any rescue workers. Russia then has a third airstrike hit the local hospital to prevent medical care for their targets or the surrounding civilian casualties. This is how Russia treats its own citizens in Chechnya, so it is easy to understand why Russia's neighbors keep seeking NATO protection.

  5624.  @alexeishayya-shirokov3603  Again, Russia has invaded Ukraine and Georgia. In fact, if it wasn't for Russia, Europe wouldn't have a single armed conflict during the 21st century.

  5625.  @alexeishayya-shirokov3603  It's not just about defense spending. It's how military spending effects the economy.

Meanwhile, Russian military adventurism tends to destabilize their neighbors and further isolate them economically and diplomatically.

If it is profitable to frack now to lower gas prices, then why appose it? In addition, the industry is way more cost conscious, then a few years. Domestic production still effects the global market. That is why the fracking revolution lowered the price of Russian and Iranian oil even though we don't buy from them. By hampering domestic production, these countries sell their oil at a higher price and globally everyone pays more. You also didn't address how he is weaponizing the federal government against anyone who loans to or invests in oil and gas companies.

  5644.  @robertsaget9697  In addition to not adding new permits for drilling, Biden is shutting down pipelines and threatening banks and investment funds who want to loan to or invest in domestic oil and gas companies.

Biden is limiting domestic protection without having a green alternative, so Americans just paying more to buy it from overseas.

  5651.  @abhabh6896  Most of Putin's critics die within Russia where they can easily cover it up. It is why Putin worked so hard to keep Navalny from getting treatment in Germany. Boris Nemtsov was shot four times in the back by an unknown assailant within view of the Kremlin. Putin took "personal control" of the investigation into Nemtsov’s murder, but the killer remains at large. Boris Berezovsky was found dead inside a locked bathroom at his home in the United Kingdom, a noose around his neck, in what was at first deemed a suicide. However, the coroner’s office could not determine the cause of death. Stanislav Markelov was shot by a masked gunman near the Kremlin. Anastasia Baburova , also a journalist from Novaya Gazeta, was fatally shot as she tried to help him. Sergei Magnitsky died in police custody in November 2009 after allegedly being brutally beaten, then denied medical care.  Natalia Estemirova was kidnapped outside her home, shot several times — including a point-blank shot in the head — and dumped in the nearby woods. Nobody has been convicted of her murder. Anna Politkovskaya was murdered and the judge found that it was a contract killing, with $150,000 of the fee paid by a person whose identity was never discovered.  Alexander Litvinenko was a former KGB agent who died three weeks after drinking a cup of tea" laced with deadly polonium-210 at a London hotel. Sergei Yushenkov had just registered his Liberal Russia movement as a political party when he was gunned down outside his home in Moscow. Yuri Shchekochikhin died suddenly, a few days before he was supposed to depart for the United States. His medical documents were deemed classified by Russian authorities.

  5668.  David Tao  China's economy grew through free market reform, a large population, and intellectual property theft. Also, the GDP growth numbers shared with the world are false numbers created by corrupt CCP officials. China is backtracking by putting more of the economy in the hands of state owned enterprises. These state companies are inefficient and only stay afloat through debt trap diplomacy, intellectual property theft, and subsidies paid for by the more successful public economy. The Chinese economist know what will be best for the economy. However, they have been making decisions that will hurt economic growth in exchange for more power in the party's hands.
    1
  5669.  David Tao  They cracked down on Ant, because it's innovations let it outperform the state banks to massive success. The CCP is uncomfortable with an institution outside their control having so much power, so they made Jack Ma disappear and they used government regulation to make the company less competitive. Why invest in market where the government attack the business for being too successful?

It is also stupid to believe America was fighting a insurgency just to test weapons against insurgency.

While it is good strategic thinking to degrade Russian forces, voters west of Poland don't see that as good enough reason to spend that kind of money for an extended war.

China has the same setup in the Guangdong province and this has resulted in incredibly successful start-ups like Huawei, Tencent, ByteDance, Alibaba, and many others you probably haven't heard of. I am curious if you lack of acknowledgement of Chinese innovation is a result of ignorance or old fashion xenophobia. China was able to create the conditions for their own venture capitalist region, while Europeans don't have the poltical will to make reforms to have their own Silicon Valley.

    1
  5736.  @Bolsonaro_em_Haia  Again, the peace deal between Trump and the Taliban was to have foreign troops leave the country in exchange for the Taliban stopping the violence and have talks with the Afghan government. When Biden showed up, he decided to give the Taliban everything they wanted (plus a huge arsenal of new weapons) in exchange for nothing. It sure sounds like an unconditional surrender to me. As for the prevention of terrorist attacks planned and launched from Afghanistan, you can't name a single one, because an active military presence (even if it is only a couple thousand soldiers) was able to gather intelligence and quickly strike before any attacks too place. Thanks to Biden, America no longer has the same capabilities to go after Al Qaeda or ISIS.

  5737.  @Bolsonaro_em_Haia  They failed in keeping terrorists from launching attacks on America from Afghanistan? That was the reason America went in and it was a sucessful mission until Biden unconditionally surrendered to the Taliban.

  5738.  @somethinglikethat2176  The Taliban didn't honor the deal struck with Trump, so Biden was under no obligation to withdraw troops until the Taliban held up their part of the bargain.

Plus, if 80% of Poland agree with the ruling party, then they should amend the constitution legally instead of ignoring the law when it benefits those in power.

Meanwhile, the UK, France, and others dismantled most institutions, so the locals didn't have a way to resist colonization. Europeans also encouraged ethnic rivalries as a method of divide and conquer. This means that when the European powers abandoned their colonies after bankrupting themselves after the war, the new African and Asian countries didn't have administrative experts or a healthy political culture. Just look at the French Revolution and Weimar Republic as examples of what can happen to new democracies with weak institutions. Also, China was not a colony.

It will probably grow, but I don't see it surpassing either the Euro or the Dollar. I imagine the Japanese Yen and Swiss Frac will grow as autocrats attempt to diversify. The fact that you can spend a Dollar anywhere makes it so attractive that even the Iran and Syrian governments finds ways to get dollars.

United Kingdom — $59.2 billion The EU and Japan aren't know for having an impressive military, but they are huge stable markets, so people want the Euro and Yen.

Even though I am a lifelong Republican, I couldn't stomach voting for a man willing to let so many die for his own benefit. However, it would still be dishonest of me to blame Trump for the accident in Ohio because the facts show that the responsibility doesn't belong to him. Maybe you should try to put aside your bias so you don't sound like a partisan hack who can't be objective about a single thing.

  5860.  @gloryakiepper7918  Fact "The brake mandate reversed by Trump only applied to high-hazard flammable trains, and the Ohio train didn't have enough cars with flammable liquids to meet that regulatory standard. It would not have been required to have the newer brake system under the Obama-era rule." There was never a rule for this type of train to have such a break system. That means Obama and Biden are equally responsible as Trump for never implementing such a rule. To blame Trump is wholeheartedly dishonest.

"Enumerated rights" are said to be implied instead of defined by the bill of rights. This leads to a lot of interpretation (or debate) from judges what the enumerated rights are. Some judges see them, where others do not. The right to privacy is a enumerated rights that is the foundation of RoeWade. The current court says that right isn't defined my the constitution. Meanwhile, the 2nd amendment is clearly defined. Their recent ruling says you shouldn't have to ask the state permission to use constitutional right. It is like requiring to get the approval from the state to make a speech or practice your religion.

  5866.  @Abmotsad  What are enumerated rights is debatable, because it isn't clearly defined by the constitution.

You also don't like people making profit on investments, but innovation grows ones quality of life and investments are sometimes needed to meet increases suppliers in order to avoid either higher prices or shortages. The Soviet Union was more equal economically, but their system lead to a poorer quality of life for everyone. Capitalism is definitely flawed, but the alternatives are much worst.

  5951.  @jilliancopeland6825  The best thing Trump did to help the economy was to not be Obama. With Obama gone, investors and businesses felt secure that they could expand their business without the risk of Obama destroying their investments through dumb regulations or new taxes. There is a reason the economic boon happened almost immediately after Obama left the White House. Also, your stats are stupidly misleading. Obama had more jobs to create because his mismanagement of the recession resulted in higher unemployment. Meanwhile, Trump's economy had more jobs than workers, so there wasn't any room to hire. To fill those new positions, companies ended up paying more to recruit people who already had jobs.

  5952.  @lorinelson7523  The Department of Labor disagrees with your false claims. Pre-covid wages were on the rise due to record low unemployment. Higher wages under Biden don't mean anything when inflation eats away the raises. Biden decided to pay people to not look for work even when vaccines are widely available. This forced business to pay an above market rate for labor without an increase in productivity. The resulting labor shortage and higher cost met consumers had to either deal with shortages or higher costs. The rules of supply and demand don't care about superficial liberal opinions on economic fairness.

Robert Byrd, a former Exalted Cyclops in the Ku Klux Klan, saying he was “one of my mentors” and that “the Senate is a lesser place for his going.” Way back in 1977, Biden said that forced busing to desegregate schools would cause his children to “grow up in a racial jungle.” Meanwhile, Jerry Jones is racist because he owns a football team with millionaire African American employees? Double standard
    1
  6210.  @6971robi Jerry Jones is 80 and it seems ridiculous to demonize him for something he did as a child. Most people's prejudices are based on ignorance and many will change through the decades. While you think people should be permanently labeled for their misdeads as a child, most people grow up to be embarrassed by passed actions. Just look at how Obama and Democrats so easily dismissed all the past racist statements from Biden. Why shouldn't Jones also get the same benefit?
    1
  6211.  @m.lewizz3297  Your assumption that Jones' views are unchanged since the 1950s seems to based solely on your own prejudice instead of any actual facts. Viewpoints change all the time.

Why did Trump's son, Trump's son-in-law, and Trump's campaign manager all admit to meeting with a known Russian intelligence asset, Natalia Veselnitskaya, to get dirt on Hillary Clinton? Why was Michael Flynn having secret meetings with Russian officials?

  6225.  @Flaco4Ever  Haley got 45% of the vote. As the court cases reveal more evidence of Trump's treason, that gap is going to shrink as people realize how unelectable Trump is.

Even Biden is working to make sure Trump is the nominee, because he knows he can beat Trump.

It is a fact that Russia used a disinformation campaign through social media to help Trump and used their security agencies to hack dirt on Clinton on behalf of Trump. If you believe Trump's kids, then it is also a fact that the Trump family and Trump campaign approached Russian intelligence for dirt on the Clintons. It only wasn't a crime, because the Russian asset didn't bring any dirt to the meeting. The only thing can't be proved is the Trump campaign was communicating with Russian intelligence during all the Russian interference.

  6342.  @thc-thehiddenclout2263  Trump managed a great economy expansion with higher wages and low unemployment. However, his covid response showed he was willing to lie to public for his own benefit even if costs the lives of thousands of Americans. This eroded his chance to beat Biden.

  6343.  @thc-thehiddenclout2263  I could care less about how he talks. (It can't be worst than Harris' laugh and or Biden's creepy, condescending whispers). Before the virus was spreading across the country, Trump stop travel with China (except all the people he let travel from China who stopped in other countries), and literally did nothing else for over a month. He didn't organize a CDC response. He didn't start building a stock of PPEs or other hospital equipment. He didn't restrict travel from Europe even though it was spreading over there. He played golf while patting himself on the back for cutting travel from China. When everyone saw how he f*** up and he didn't prepare for anything, he tried to downplay his mistake lying about how dangerous the virus is. I'm also confused why he is so proud that he decided to fund vaccine research. Literally anyone would have funded vaccine research during a viral outbreak. The man was so incompetent that even Sleepy Joe looked appealing to America.

  6344.  @ethnic949  I'm not defending Biden. Trump did a poor job managing the covid spread, but at least he didn't create the crisis.

He just issued a statement that Republicans shouldn't vote in 2022 or 2022 unless the solve his 2020 loss. This shows he doesn't even care about Republicans or conservatism. Trump only cares about Trump. If Republicans keep following Trump, then we are surrendering the country to Sanders and AOC.

  6357.  @Norah56s  The visible "facts" are allegations in an indictment. The allegations lack context, details, or even questions of credibility.

If you increase the supply of money without increasing the demand (productivity), then you just end up devaluing each bill (inflation).

You are also on crack to think there is an axis alliance between Russia, China, and India. Ignoring that China and India are in a regional cold war, neither country seems willing to help Russia.

  6584. This fact checker is also misleading as the economy boom of the Trump era made the job market so tight that there was no room for unemployment to drop.

  6585.  @vannpatrickjr1353  I noticed Republicans actually think the loudest blowhards at debates are winners even if a sane person could see they are just rude and without substance. It is why Trump and Vivek always poll well in debates.

  6586.  @carolmarie5105  I do find it funny that boomers crap on younger generations when the data shows that millennials work more hours for less pay. The skill gap has more to do with education than anything. There is a big push for everyone to go to college even though college don't teach for fields airlines need such as pilots, mechanics, and coding in outdated languages legacy companies still use.

  6587.  @dormilon36  No one cares about your poltical BS. The data shows that when the stock market had one of the biggest rallies in history under Trump, many chose to retire. By the time Biden took office, the big shift in the job market already happened.

  6590.  @dalecrocker3213  Or Putin could stop the bloodshed by abandoning his imperial ambitions instead of waiting for Ukraine to liberate their homeland. Either way, the results will be the same. Obviously, you didn't watch the show about a school teacher taking on corrupt politicians and oligarchs.

  6591.  @dalecrocker3213  You can even keep your conspiracies straight. The election is "fixed" and he got the votes due to a TV show that promotes a anti corruption policy. Running a popular campaign doesn't make an election "fixed". Obviously, you just don't understand how democracies work. Freedom to choose their own leaders, choose their own laws, and practice their own culture. Putin's puppet governments' would make them slaves to Putin's will (something already happening in Russian occupied territory).

  6592.  @dalecrocker3213  If Zelenskyy was an CIA puppet, then would have given in to Trump's demands to fabricate evidence against Trump's poltical rival, and Zelenskyy wouldn't have continually embarrassed Biden with demands for a no-fly zone and fighter jets. The Ukrainians chose their president in a fair election. The fact they rally behind him against unprovoked Russian aggression is a sign of his legitimacy in the eyes of his people. Freedom is worth fighting for.

  6593.  @dalecrocker3213  He called the Jewish president a Na .zi and said the president should step down because of conspiracy theories Putin made up about the Dombas. Putin just wanted another puppet like he has in Belarus.

  6597. Putin's demands are for Ukraine to give up their territory, sovereignty, and military. Russia is demanding a surrender; not peace.

The organization has no trade deals or military alliance. It is just a club of authoritarianism to feel less lonely.

  6610.  @AmazinglyAwkward  The proof is the current wirkforce participation rate. All these extra government checks have resulted in people quiting their jobs and to stop looking for new work. The tip system is irrelevant. You pay the labor cost as a tip in America or you pay the labor cost with higher meal prices. Either way, the staff gets paid.

  6611.  @AmazinglyAwkward  All this "free money" hasn't improved economic consumption. All it has done is pay people not to work, which exacerbates the current supply and inflation issues. I rather go back to pre-covid economic growth instead inflation eating away my paycheck. Democrats need to stop making a bad situation worst.

  6612.  @AmazinglyAwkward  Democrats are going to cause a cobra effect by with $4.9 trillion of deficit spending. Manchin trying to stop Democrats from turning Biden's inflation crisis into Biden's hyperinflation crisis with their reckless spending. Everyone will suffer then.

  6613. While millionaire Sanders can ride out the inflation crisis in his three homes, the poor are struggling to buy food, gas, and electricity. Manchin didn't want to give future generations $4.9 trillion of additional debt just to throw fire on Biden's inflation crisis.
