  1. Manufacturing jobs decreased in 2025! 🤣 The trade balance deficit also increased in 2025! 😆
  2. Not only by the shutdown. From the OP: "In its release on Friday, the BEA said that "the deceleration in real GDP in the fourth quarter reflected downturns in government spending and exports and a deceleration in consumer spending that were partly offset by an acceleration in investment." For the whole year, it's only 2.2%., compared to 2.8% in 2024.
  3. I asked Copilot (ChatGPT) about the definition in the EU, as it applies to Germany. Also from Copilot, "In 2021, the European Commission adopted the EU Strategy on combating antisemitism and fostering Jewish life, the first comprehensive EU plan to address antisemitism."
  4. I am against hate speech. Investigating people for antisemitic hate speech is not fascism.
  5. Blah blah! You still have nothing!
  6. And you still have nothing! 😅 Fulton county's ballots have been audited 2 times already, by a Republican administration. On top of it, Fulton county has always been a Dem stronghold. There's nothing surprising in the results.
  7. Nothing to see there! 🤣 PNK was founded in St Petersburg in 2004, operating in the US since 2017. The executive director of the PNK group is Oleg Mamaev, a Russian. it operates in the US through several LLCs! https://pnk.group/company https://globalmsk.ru/person/id/4452 https://tadviser.com/index.php/Company:PNK_Group_%28PNK_group%29
  8. You missread my quote. It was about "antisemitic hate speech". Germany's past is also a contextual factor which cannot be ignored.
  9. From the DW article: "The man was arrested on Thursday as part of nationwide police operations against suspected antisemitic hate speech online." Are you in favor of allowing antisemitic posts on SM? And in particular in Germany? PS I also find that prosecuting someone for mocking a politician is quite excessive.
  10. The most funny aspect is that they are probably not even paid for that! 😆
  11. Trump is completely erratic. He probably doesn't even remember what he said before! 😁
  12. Is that supposed to be humor? 😄
  13. How does the Fed dare defy the party line! 😅
  14. It's not a democrat supporter who brought Biden up, in a Trump thread! 😅
  15. Keep up to date! He's not President any more! Oh and he did beat Trump flat and square in 2020! Trump is still whining about it 5 years later! 😅
  16. Lol! No absence of prison guards and Russian administration at the crime scene! 🤣
  17. Statistically, it's very likely that there is life somewheres else, as the universe is quasi infinite. However, we know that there is no advanced life forms at practicable distance from earth, in terms of light-years. In science fiction movies, it's possible to jump through the hyperspace, but it's only in movies. The presence of alien space crafts on earth is simply impossible. The fact that what some people allegedly saw looks exactly like in SF comics dating from the 50's is also disqualifying such testimonies!
  18. The moron doesn't seem to remembercthat he approved the deal last year! 😀
  19. Of course, it's a board chaired by Trump. What could go wrong? 😁
  20. Unlike in the two other cited cases, the elections has provided the wished result, so I doubt it will be nullified.
  21. To be honest, the latest very significant decrease of the participation rate was due to the Covid crisis. However, it decreased slightly in 2025, which further contradicts the MAGA rhetoric that getting rid of immigrants would increase job opportunities for native born. UE increased, native born UE increased, and more people are out of the labor market.
  22. Let's talk about numbers... UE increased under Trump, and job creation decreased, as well as labor participation rate! 🤣
  23. Lol! You told us you were a Marxist, and yet you support the "opium of the people", and also an anti-Marxist leader! 🤣🤣🤣
  24. I love it when MAGAs are desperately deflecting! 🤣
  25. Trump forgot he approved the deal less than one year ago! 🤣🤣🤣 "Following a comprehensive interagency review, the Trump Administration determined that this agreement secures the long-term, stable, and effective operation of the joint U.S.-UK military facility at Diego Garcia. This is a critical asset for regional and global security. President Trump expressed his support for this monumental achievement during his meeting with Prime Minister Starmer at the White House." https://www.state.gov/u-s-support-for-uk-and-mauritius-agreement-on-chagos-archipelago
