Where is he wrong? Is he not the supreme leader of a one party communist state? China is our ally only in the matter of we are working to keep war between us cold.  

Guess this will drive Biden haters into believing China is a free liberal democracy now.

Sometimes I don't know if you are actually a posting or if you have outsourced your posting to antagonistic AI modelled after Forest Gump.

OF COURSE Xi is a dictator, the US is trying to negotiate with China around Taiwan and restricting the export of the chemicals used to make Fentanyl.
You can tell by Blinken almost having a seizure that this is not the official communication they were looking for.

If he did not say that, people would scream he thinks China is a democracy and also is crazy.

House ethics report released showing Santos grossly misused campaign funds going so far as to use donor funds for OnlyFans. They made no recommendations for action however, I guess because the GOP does not believe in punishment for crimes anymore.

Xi today said he will send pandas again to the US as envoys of friendship. Clearly he is furious about the dictator comments.

Half of the conservative Supreme Court justices joined the liberals to stop the Florida drag ban from going into effect for a 6-3 ruling that drag is free speech.

Not one court that reviewed this ban believed it was lawful.

In a related story, Santos announced today that he was not going to seek re-election.

I assume they told him to quietly walk away after this term for his own good.

Expect there would be more outrage in a sitting GOP member spending campaign funds on tranny porn but here we are.

No charges for Biden expected as Hur prepares the final report in his document case. Noted the major difference between Trump and Biden was Biden returned them when he found the documents and Trump did not.

House ethics team leader will lead an expulsion vote for Santos after people read the reported and started to comment. Some girls came forward to show that, yup, they got that Santos OnlyFans cash.

More and more talk of spending 100 billion to build a Canadian border wall. Because drugs and terrorists can only cross land borders, this would be the only way to have a secure country. Sky and water borders will still be protected by God.

Since Mexico will not pay for the wall, we will bill it to central America instead. Surely they will pay.

Rosalynn Carter passed. Easily the greatest first lady in the modern era. I assume Jimmy will do soon too as he has been in hospice for a long time and few survive the death of a long term spouse. With these ends the era of the tireless public servant. No one since really seems to remain at all active in public service after they leave the presidency like they did.

Surprised no one else posted this. GOP and Fox claiming the US border was attacked by a likely Hamas member entering our country from Canada. Reports from right wing media and the GOP is a car was packed full of explosives, drove into the US then detonated.

The lying media says there is no evidence this was a terrorist attack, or explosives were involved at all, and video merely shows an out of control car. But we know without a Northern Border Wall this country will never be safe from Hamas terrorists.

I'm surprised The Biden Administration didn't use it for justification to send ground troops into Gaza.

Biden admin does not consider it an act of terrorism, only Fox and the GOP believes Hamas sleeper cells have invaded Canada.  They also are opposing the cease fire Biden fought for now.  

Appearing we reached a weird inflection point. Gas power is now more expensive to produce in the US than green power. Green power battery plants are selling energy to grids cheaper than gas is, so grids are slowly phasing out buying gas power. Which then is pushing demand for gas down. Same is happening with coal.

Seems the competition for intermittent power, something people claimed we needed gas power for because green power could not deal with it, was won by green power itself. And clearly we have the ability to use battery plants to house excess energy.

This is a complete lie and has people who should know better holding the balls of the green energy sector.

Plenty of links on it. That whole you cannot store green power is bullshit, and now people are feeling the effects.  This is the market talking too, they do not see the returns long term in gas investments.


Derek Chauvin gets shanked in prison. Could not have happened to a better person. Assume now he goes to solitary for the rest of his stay.

Show your papers law going into effect in Texas. On demand all people must submit their legal papers or risk arrest. For foreigners, coming to Texas without the proper paperwork will result in arrest as by default it will be illegal to come there.  Under the laws, whether the passport alone is enough will depend on the cop's mood as they can request the visas and rest of the paperwork to be presented on the spot.

Case to repeal Helvering v. Horst going before the Supreme Court. This case seeks to have the Supreme Court rule that gains cannot be tax until realized, which would codify "Buy, Borrow, Die." As a byproduct it will shred large parts of the US tax code making most income of the wealthy and corporations untaxable. Will also make it impossible to tax unrealized inheritances.  Could cost the US quadrillions tax experts estimate. 

Alito has connections to this case, as it believed does Thomas. Neither will rescue themselves because they are above influence. Both are assumed to be voting for the repeal.

Santos is outta here!

He was just expelled from the house.

And he literally just stormed out of there.  Didn't even wait for the final gavel.

Expected that Bill Johnson and McCarthy will resign in the very near future as well, giving the GOP a majority of only 1.

Santos looking to burn people on the way out and is ranting about people who also broke the law with ethics violations, including congressional inside trading.

Won’t do shit. Only reason they finally got rid of him was he was stealing from them. Unless he’s got evidence of other congress people stealing form other congress people ain’t gone be shit. Bet.

Still can't convince me this guy legitimately exists.

Menendez is likely going as well. Dems are calling for his blood and he has his own investigations going on. Given he is a dem that does not bode well for him.

The other three he claims to have dirt on are NY Republicans and he likely actually has it. Will at least start ethics investigations. Depending on how dirty they are they could get a boot. GOP is struggling with an imagine now of being criminals. Hard to run on hard on crime, when you are backing a a guy with like 100 indictments for president, and your own party sees local leaders constantly getting hit with investigations due to sexual charges. Latest is Florida GOP head, Christian Ziegler, and husband of the Moms for Liberty founder, getting accused of sexual assault by a third in his and his wife's relations.

Also revealed that the Mom for Liberty founder has sex with other women with her husband. Maybe she is the one we do not want around school children.

He is my pick to win the rumble, then beat Roman for the title.

House will look to start the Biden impeachment in two weeks. First vote will be an impeachment inquiry again. Basically a do-over of their first inquiry that backfired entirely. Some witnesses will not be able to testify for round two as they went to prison for fraud related charges. I presume they will be aiming to do the impeachment itself in the Fall to try to repeat the Hillary email situation.

GOP also demanding Hunter come in for the inquiry.  His lawyer requested a public hearing and the GOP FREAKED THE FUCK OUT.  Presumably Hunter will now move to the courts.  His case is that a backroom meeting will result in leaks to the media of a manipulative nature, which the sole defense would be to make the hearings public.  Last hearing the GOP did was so embarrassing to them they are basically restarting the Biden impeachment stuff after all of their experts said they had no evidence of crime that Joe committed.  

Texas secession will be on the primary ballots it appears. Since it is limited now to primary ballots it is non-binding, but appears the Texas secession movement is only growing.

I for one support them leaving.  But after since they are talking about all these awful people pouring into their state we should build a wall on the Texas border and make them pay for it.

Well Hunter is fucked. Serious of charges against him for not paying his taxes. Brutal court filing saying he had money for drugs, escorts and exotic cars but not his taxes. Moreso after he got sober he still did not pay them. Also claim to fuel his lifestyle he pulled cash from his company, which also subverted proper taxation.

While it seems these would be minor things and he could just pay it back, he could get 27 years for this.

Biden will defend him because he is his son, but I expect few democrats to fight to him. He dug his own grave here and had years to remedy this in a manner that would have forgave him.
