2 Children Dead, 17 Hurt in Mass Shooting at Minneapolis Church
Very weak argument. Can't take you serious to compare lethal killings by knife and firearm. Really make nonsence of the idiom 'never bring knife to a gunfight'.

2 Children Dead, 17 Hurt in Mass Shooting at Minneapolis Church
Mental illness not exclusive to US. Japan overall gun deaths is 0.01 per 100,000 people compare to USA 13.7 per 100,000. It is the gun, stupid and the Republicans are complicit in allowing too much leeway on gun laws.

Trump's Shock Move: Fed Governor Lisa Cook Axed in Sudden Purge
Yes he is very much a dictator. Transforming the political system into an authoritarian dictatorship. building himself into a personality cult through his propaganda machinery and going after his enemies. Does that sound familiar to what is happening in America now?

Trump's Shock Move: Fed Governor Lisa Cook Axed in Sudden Purge
Putin was also elected. It’s his imposition of control over states, placing his lackeys in key positions, intimidation of Congress representatives, influencing judiciary to have his way and going after his political enemies that make him moving towards dictatorship. By the way, he didn’t win in a landslide.

Trump's Shock Move: Fed Governor Lisa Cook Axed in Sudden Purge
Since when age is the criteria to be a dictator. The oldest dictator in the world is 92 years old President of Cameroon. Trump has now the executive, legislative and judiciary under his thumb. I hope the FED will hold their ground. This is dictatorial stuff.

You have balls of steel to trade forex in this heightened time of volatility from Fed decision and market gloomy sentiments. I will keep my powder dry for the time being.

Israel Launches Massive Gaza Strikes Ahead of Major Offensive
The Gaza war will continue and Netanyahu will do whatever he want and USA will continue to pretend that they are making attempts to stop the killings and the human tragedies. Trump swift end to the war during campaigning will be another of his unfulfilled pledges. A day ago, he gave another 2-3 weeks for the war to come to a conclusive end and today Witkoff said it will be settled by end of the year. Trump is clueless and incompetent in foreign policies and strategy. As he continue to arm and finance Israel in this war, US deepened its complicity in Gaza war crimes.

North Korea Fires Missiles Amid Rising Peninsula Tensions
The timing of the missiles firing just a day after Trump meeting South Korea President and saying he wants to meet Kim is not coincidental. Kim is trolling a weak Trump.

Four journalists among 15 dead in Israeli strike on hospital
Americans actually disapproved of Israel conduct. Last Gallup poll in July have 68% disappoval. Needless to say, the 32% approvals are from the low information Maga land. AIPAC funded the last election and now it is pay back time for Trump to repay AIPAC. Mossad has dirt on Trump's corruption and Epstein. A powerful leverage for Netanyahu for pressure on Trump.

Trump Slams Baltimore 'Crime Mess', Threatens Bridge Funding Cut
Will have fun watching the USD tanked and the MAGA folks in Thailand getting their Baht decimated if he do that. 😀

Trump's Shock Move: Fed Governor Lisa Cook Axed in Sudden Purge
As Paul Krugman correctly said that US will be like Turkey or Venezuela. Investors will never treat US as safe investments haven as they will not trust the economic data coming out of Trump’s handpicked officials. The dollar weakened today and the yields rose higher. Economic disaster await as the cognitive declining President’s policies driving the country towards the cliff.

Four journalists among 15 dead in Israeli strike on hospital
Disregarding the Geneva Convention and UN Plan of Action on the safety of Journalists and to respect and protect journalists in war zone as long as they are not directly participating in hostilities has made Gaza incredible dangerous.

Trump Slams Baltimore 'Crime Mess', Threatens Bridge Funding Cut
This is disgusting and low by his toilet bowl standard. He has zero regards for the welfare of the citizens of Baltimore. This bridge is vital highway between East and West route and access to the Baltimore Port; key importance in the economy. He is disregarding the well being for crazy political brinkmanship. His accelerating cognitive decline is making him make erratic decisions.

Israel Launches Massive Gaza Strikes Ahead of Major Offensive
Since 1948, the IDF has fought about 19 wars with different Arab countries and insurgents; with the latest against Hamas. Eradicating Hamas will not end the future wars and insurrections. Israel has to find a diplomatic solution and US need to help with the diplomacy; not prodding them with unlimited military and financial aids. Majority of tax payers do not support Israel on their continuing Gaza war.

Trump Imposes Stealth Tariffs Up to 25% on UK Products
I can’t speak for Hillary or Kamala as they have not reached the pinnacle of leadership but Joe has the proven records in economics and foreign relationships to qualify him as a successful POTUS. Moreover all the above are consensus seeking administrators and law abiding. Trump is just the opposite as an authoritarian who never seek consensus among this staffs and will attack anyone who show signs of dissents and has absolute disregard for the constitution and the law. We may make the mistake of voting unsuitable candidate on the ballot box but we can’t afford to make a mistake to vote in someone who is a convicted felon and break the law repeatedly and abuse the constitution. We can’t afford to cut ties to our traditional allies and side with the enemy. We may even not have an election in 2028. This is how dangerous Trump is for America. Trump will leave the office in a political and economic wreckage and having less friends.

Zelensky vows to continue fighting as Ukraine marks independence
So like Trump to surrender and reward the aggressor. So much for stopping the war in 24 hours.

Zelensky vows to continue fighting as Ukraine marks independence
Such shallow comments really exposed the lack of knowledge of the poster. Zelensky do not have the legal power to concede territories. It requires constitutional changes or a nation wide referendum. Giving up the territories would be like giving up the defence fortifications that would invite Russia incursion. Trump will not cut weapons fundings as the US mililtary industry benefit immensely on supllying weapons to Ukraine. The only way to win the war is for Ukraine to hit Russia military hard and inflict heavy damages to their military. US must release their ban on long range artillery attacking Russia and supply Ukraine with more weapons and protect their sky.

You crack me up. Newsom will clean up Trump's mess if Trump still around next 31/2 years. His spell is broken and his base knows he is a lame duck.

Zelensky vows to continue fighting as Ukraine marks independence
Glory to Ukraine on their Independence Day and bravo to Zelensky to continue fighting for his country against all odds. Big letdown on Trump's inability to be strong against Russia and allow Russia to continue the bombings and fighting. He is so weak against Putin that he barred UKraine use of the long range missiles ATACMS to strike Russia military assets.

Trump Imposes Stealth Tariffs Up to 25% on UK Products
Another day another tariff madness from TACO man. Major trading partners redrawing the world trade map minus the US. People are avoiding going to US and US made products. Slowing labour market, rising debts and declining consumer sentiment. It is going downhill for Trump's America. The next Dem government will have lots to clean up from Trump's economic mess. Typical Republicans messing up the economy for the Dems.

Russia Rejects EU Troops in Ukraine Amid Trump’s Veiled Threats
Significantly reduced but some gas still bought due to infrastructure constraints and contractual obligations. Phasing out plans and diversification will completely cut ties eventually.

Russia Rejects EU Troops in Ukraine Amid Trump’s Veiled Threats
Glory to Ukraine on their Independence Day. While all European leaders sent their greetings and encouragement, cankles Trump stay silent so not to offend Putin and giving him another 2 weeks for who-knows-what. A very compromised POTUS.

Russia launches biggest wave of strikes on Ukraine for weeks
It is propaganda when only the propagandist country use one sided information and misrepresent the facts to influence people like you while the rest of the world disagree.
