U.S. treasury securities are considered as quite safe. Nothing to compare with the bad subprimes debt. The main risk is the $ exchange rate. There is no particular reason why the U.S. economy would be more at risk than the U.K economy. It's likely the opposite case. And if there's a crisis in the U.S., it will propagate to U.K. anyway.

The use of the word "country" in the OP can be misleading. In some countries It's mainly the State buying U.S. debt (ex. China), in countries such as UK it's mainly private investors (banks, edge funds, companies, etc...)

For the reason you just evoked. Some UK investors see it as a safer investment. In particular, the share of UK debt holders increased after the Brexit referendum.

Only 9 out of 8.2 million votes cast in Georgia were noncitizens

Because Republicans are desperate to substantiate the big lie, in the absence of any proof. So they do 'as if' there were a good reason! 😃 -

Trump talked about bringing "papers that you would not believe", then goes word salad, then Rogan asked "are you goingbto present ever.." before being interrupted by more word salad. So what Trump asked to present? -

He was asked for proof and did not bring any. Just the usual word salad! 😃 “I would bring in papers that you would not believe, so many different papers. That election was so crooked, it was the most crooked.” https://www.happyscribe.com/public/the-joe-rogan-experience/2219-donald-trump -

Trump is a whining coward who's not able to face reality without making up ridiculous conspiracy theories! 🤣 -

So Trump would have documents proving the big lie is not a lie, and would have kept them hidden for four years? It's laughable, indeed! Well, maybe he didn't lie in the quote, as he talked aboutb" papers you would not believe"! 🤣 -

Better than that (for China). It will be equipped with Chinese softwares which will be able to record anything. -

Trump said he'd rather talk about it another time when he would "bring in papers that you would not believe." 🤣 Who would not laugh at that? -

A Call for António Guterres’ Resignation: No Longer a Laughing Matter
candide replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Several 'inaccuracies' in your post. 😁 There are not 7b people in BRICS+. There is no BRICS economic union, not even a trade deal. BRICS countries are not particularly known for respecting international laws backed by the U.N., and in particular Russia and China. In addition, while it is obvious that a more multipolar world will emerge some day, I doubt it will be better. I doubt that being dominated by China, Russia or India will be better for smaller countries, than being dominated by the U.S. -

Depending how you define interference. In common language it can likely be considered as interference. Legally, I don't know the relevant laws in Canada, so I cannot reply. -
Starmer Downplays Trump Campaign's Allegations of Foreign Interference
candide replied to Social Media's topic in World News
You did not say it, however it's a thread about interference in elections. My initial point was that both sides of the UK political arena interfered in U.S. elections, so It's all faux outrage from the RW. If you consider a broader political scope than just elections, both U.S. parties also interfered in UK politics in one way or another. All of those initiatives likely without any significant impact on US or UK politics. -
Trump Fires Back at ‘Lowlife’ John Kelly After Damaging Remarks
candide replied to Social Media's topic in World News
I never claimed anything, just joked about a Trumper claiming that truth is truth. So if you practise your stated belief that truth is truth: is Trump telling the truth when he is claiming he won the 2020 election, or is it not true?
