How many of those countries have a trade deficit with the USA? Edit: Or a trade surplus depending on which POV you're using?

Were they really unaware, or did they change their mind (and their story)? Wouldn't be the first time in the history of the world that a woman took money for an act, then denied it when it became public.

Guest workers also don't stay in mid-city hotels on the taxpayer dime, costing $$billions that could be better spent on citizens' needs. Like water to fight fires.

Colour balance of the camera was set wrong? Or it may have been a file photo for reference only, as the OP states.

So, not the clown shoe that was doing exactly that, last week...

I've never encountered a group of people who are so proud to be ignorant and so determined to stay that way and not to get the other half of any issue. And I'm not using "ignorant" as a pejorative. By definition, ignorant means I don't know. I can correct that. But only if I am willing.

Pardon me for asking, but who is the clown shoe in your story? Because this tread is so chock full of clown shoes, you need to be specific.

Jonathon Turley explains that quite nicely. Paraphrasing, the Biden DOJ was so egregious in their harsh treatment of the J6 protestors that they opened the door for Trump to overcorrect. Turley, on “America’s Newsroom,” suggested that while he had wanted accountability for those “responsible for the riot,” the DOJ’s overreach made Trump’s pardons reasonable. https://dailycaller.com/2025/01/21/jonathan-turley-biden-dojs-harsh-treatment-of-j6-rioters-case-trump-pardoning/ Had Biden's DOJ only gone after the bad actors, Trump would have probably pardoned none of them. It's not as if he's a soft on crime Dem...

Hmmmm... Does that include murderers of FBI agents? The FBIAA — which represents more than 14,000 active and former FBI agents — characterized Biden’s decision to allow Peltier to serve out the rest of his sentence in home confinement as a stab in the back to the bureau and its employees. Peltier was convicted in 1977 for the 1975 murders of FBI Agents Jack Coler and Ronald Williams at the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota. He sought to get out of prison repeatedly before Biden, on the final day of his presidency, commuted his sentence. https://dailycaller.com/2025/01/20/cruel-betrayal-law-enforcement-group-slams-bidens-cowardly-last-minute-commutation-for-cop-killer/

Look it up yourself. Considerate it an exercise in personal growth, holding your nose and clicking outside the MSM. Otherwise, you're arguing with half the facts.

She as much as admitted it on video.

Pelosi's the one that threw the LEOs under the bus, deliberately under manning the capitol security that day, to get the exact result that they got. She wanted it to happen. She needed it to happen. Trouble for her is that it just wasn't enough to overcome 2 very weak candidates. Disastrously weak.

The "gross display" of power was Biden pardoning Schiff. But he had to pardon a lot of people if he hoped his family's crimes were to go uninvestigated.

As fun as it is to bash the Russkies, there's always the possibility that someone slipped her something she didn't deliberately consume.

On which side of your ridiculous line does Jonathan Turley fit? George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley said Tuesday that the cruel way former President Joe Biden’s Department of Justice (DOJ) handled the cases of Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol rioters provided justification for President Donald Trump’s decision to pardon them on Monday. Biden’s DOJ prosecuted over 1,200 individuals from nearly every state in connection with the riot and a D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals panel found in March 2024 that some defendants experienced a wrongful extension of their sentences. Turley, on “America’s Newsroom,” suggested that while he had wanted accountability for those “responsible for the riot,” the DOJ’s overreach made Trump’s pardons reasonable.

Hey, to each his own. I'm just reporting what I found, as a PSA. You may want to stay away. Others may enjoy sipping wine on a Sunday evening with the family in tow. I don't drink, so it's not a big deal for me. Just to be clear, I'm not advocating an illegal activity (alcohol in a city park). And I'd suggest that anyone wanting to sip wine should keep it under the radar and take your cues from the locals and mostly respectable falangs. Pull it out of the stay-cool bag only when you see others doing the same.

Call me cynical, but if a guy posted up how to kill your Harris voting wife, I think there would be a knock on his door by the FBI.

If you only watched the MSM, that may be what you saw. If you watched alternative sources, you saw the cops going full Rambo on the much hated MAGA protestors, and some of the protestors defending themselves (and other protestors) from police beatings. Looking forward to the release of ALL the footage. Personally, I believe that some protestors needed to go to jail and a few of them deserved long sentences. But 1500 felony prosecutions? That was abuse of power. And the pardons are to correct the injustices.

What a hoot. Or is it??? Educated white liberal women appear to have lost their goddamn minds after the presidential election. Many have posted videos of uncontrollable emotional outbursts over a Trump victory… Liberal Women Are Telling Each Other to Poison Men Who Voted for Trump – Vigilant News Network (sorry, link doesn't work) Disturbing trends as internet searches explode for various poisons. Internet searches for Aqua Tofana—a potent poison created in Sicily around 1630 by a woman named Giulia Tofana, or Tofania, and historically used by women to free themselves from relationships by killing men—spiked shortly after the election results. I love the wingnut conspiracy sites. AKA the spoiler alert sites

Did too. See how that works?

Rosanne Boyland, unarmed, died after being savagely beaten by a cop and Ashley Babbit, unarmed, was shot by a cop to whom she presented no threat. Yet neither one of those cops was prosecuted. Double standard of justice much? I should clarify, not prosecuted yet. The statute of limitations on murder never run out. I wonder if they were on Biden's list o' preemptive pardons?

Didn't Biden just do that?

That's not what I saw in years previous. There were a lot of concert goers, Thai and foreign, discretely sipping wine from fancy fluted glasses. No buckets of booze, but they seemed to allow wine sipping. It's against Lumphini Park rules, but they looked the other way.

I'd guess that about 1/4-1/3 of the audience were foreigners. And a lot of them bring their kids. On an aside, in the past years they seemed to overlook people sipping wine on the lawn, watching the concert. I didn't notice anyone drinking this time, but I didn't really look for it.

It's RT, so take it with a grain of salt. Trump signed an executive order granting pardons in the Oval Office on Monday, hours after he was sworn in for his second term. The president granted “a full, complete and unconditional pardon to all other individuals convicted of offenses related to events that occurred at or near the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021,” the order said. Additionally, 14 people got their sentences commuted. “We hope that they come out tonight, frankly,” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office. Trump pardons January 6 rioters — RT World News
