What could go wrong?
At least that plane wasn't WOKE.
I think we can safely say that the US has yielded that title. I never thought such a thing was possible.
What would investors think about the "full faith and credit of the United States government" when faced with a regime that just decides not to pay what is owed?
Shit. I heard the local meteorologist mention a radar being out of commission and I didn't for a moment think anything about it. I was still under the impression that I lived in a first world nation and such things are but minor blip that would quickly be rectified and full coverage would return in short order. Fuck this regime!
Nice. But it's very likely that all purchases going forward should be for European/South Korean hardware. It's possible TFG is going to refuse to sell parts for this and other American equipment in the near future and preclude our "allies" from doing the same.
You mean Brisketexan underestimated how bad things would be?
I would not be 100% surprised if Australia pulls out of the AUKUS deal and approaches the French again about their subs. Why on Earth would a nation so firmly tie its self defense to a country with a Trump presidency? His mercurial nature and his Russian slant is a toxic soup of uncertainty and risk that no sane nation should rely on. The stakes are too high.
The United States has become the Twitter of countries. Anyone looking for their BlueSky countries?
Meanwhile at the Musk daycare facility...
While they're at it, they had best give Hungary the boot as well. Slovakia too maybe, but even they voted with the sane countries recently about who's at fault in all of this.
Until recently, none of the other parties would have anything to do with AfD. CDU accepting AfD help on a recent immigration bill was somewhat scandalous.
Often you'd see the #1 and #2 party work something out. But I doubt that happens here. The Greens would team up with CDU before the Greens would let AfD in the door I think. If they had any sense at all, the SPD, Greens and FDP should just accept some small slice of power and freeze out the Nazis. We don't need another von Papen thinking they'll let AfD in just a little bit and then control them. That didn't work out so well the last time.
I don't either. But unfortunately, a large segment of the US population does. It's a shame because he might be my #1 choice, if such things weren't an "issue" for others.
Is this the origin of TFG's 5% approval rating came from? He saw an article that said his support gained 5% points and he thought that meant a 5% approval rating?
The only thing in that document that isn't crap, assuming it's true, is the following segment, "since Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022". And yet, this is all still somehow Ukraine's fault.
Ukraine will reject this "deal" and rightfully so. He tried to bring peace. But Ukraine wants to keep fighting. TFG will then declare Ukraine is being unreasonable and stop all assistance. That's where this is heading, right?
