  1. The NATO threat is a lame argument. What are the facts: before the invasion of Ukraine, - European countries had significantly reduced their defense budget 're GDP,, - the American military presence 8n Europe had also been significantly reduced, - nuclear weapon had not been moved nearer to Russia, they remained at the same place they were during the cold war.
  2. A source for this number? It seems you made it up!

  5. Unless I'm mistaken, the agreement did not require a full withdrawal by the end of 2020. My point is thst the Trump administration respected its commitments by releasing 5000 terrorists and withdrawing most troops, despite the fact that the Taliban did not respect their commitments.
  6. Already laying ground to blame someone else for Trump's failures to come.... 😀
  7. What has Mark Twain to do with Covid-related statistics? For example the fact that the death rate was higher among non-vaccinated than vaccinated.
  8. I am fully in favour of healthy food, in particular reducing the use of pesticides and other chemicals in agriculture, and the use of additives in processed food. However, it will obviously require more regulations and constraints. It will be interesting to see how it will collide with Trumps pledge to cut regulations in order to increase performance and how the agri-business, which is a strong GOP backer, will react to it 😃
  9. The President refused to apply the agreement voted by the parliament, hence the protests. He was forced to leave because of this, and also because he ordered to fire at protesters. After that, free elections have been organised and the Ukrainian people chose the government they preferred.
  10. For the time being, it's just a show for the gullible and ignorant. Currently, the share of telework in the Federal administration is lowe than in the private sector. I have seen a few restructuring and redundancy schemes occurring. It's usually the best ones who leave, because they can easily find another job. If they do it in the way they are presenting it, it will be a big mess. And, of course, the MAGA whiners will blame the deep state for it!
  11. Your fantasies are weird. You should get help! 🤣
  12. Which conspiracy? I stated that I don't think Republicans want kids to die. 😃
  13. Which is why he respected his part of the deal why the Taliban did not
