Trump is dominating the primaries. That doesn’t mean he’ll beat Biden
As usual, he's lying. Not "every charge". Of course you know it already.

Nikki Haley is trounced by the ‘none of these candidates’ option.
The key issue is that everyone has a right to her/his opinion, but not to her/his own facts. It never happened in the past that one side made up its own facts to this extent (except maybe about the war in Iraq).

Taylor Swift Caught in Crosshairs of Bizarre MAGA Conspiracy Theory
It looks like the beginning of dementia... From your link: "I signed and was responsible for the Music Modernization Act for Taylor Swift and all other Musical Artists. Joe Biden didn’t do anything for Taylor, and never will," he wrote. "There’s no way she could endorse Crooked Joe Biden, the worst and most corrupt President in the History of our Country, and be disloyal to the man who made her so much money. Besides that, I like her boyfriend, Travis, even though he may be a Liberal, and probably can’t stand me!" he added 😅

Human trafficking ring busted: Underage girls lured to sell virginity to Chinese investors for 200,000 baht
Another anedoctical evidence. There are also cases among anti-woke, if you see what I mean. Anedoctical evidence on both sides.

I am not claiming abuses don't continue, but societies (in the U.S. or elsewhere) are much less tolerant to it than before. Laws have also been improved in several countries regarding prescription, charges, penalties, pedo sexual tourism etc...

Sorry, but it's you who must back your claim by more than anedoctical and unrepresentative evidence. There are several woke or liberal stances (with which you may or may not agree), but being pro-pedo or pro-sex crime is not part of them. Ex. The 'woke' me too movement which resulted in several offenses against minors being revealed.

An unknown assistant professor who is certainly not considered as a scientific authority. Neither a leading figure among so-called woke and liberals, BTW. Edit. Additionally she's a poor scientist because paedophilia is a scientific expression drawn from Greek which means more or less the same: liking or being attracted by children.

Deflection. How is it related to your claim that woke and liberals are pro- pedo?
-

It means you are not arguing any more that the woke movement and the liberals are pro-pedo.

Tucker Carlson: Putin takes charge as TV host gives free rein to Kremlin
There was no formal agreement, and there is no Soviet Union any more (because it has been torpedoed by Russian in June 1991). I guess if you ask Poland or the Baltic States, they would tell you that adhering to NATO has protected them from a conflict with Russia

Tucker Carlson Goes to Moscow?
Russia has a low GDP level and a declining population. It certainly needs resources, including human resources.

The demand in the U.S. is certainly the main issue. However, it doesn't exonerate China (although it stated to act against it). As to the imaginary causality you are evoking, it's absolutely ridiculous. BTW, fentanyl initially started as a "white problem" in the U.S.

Biden Warns of a 'Nightmare' Future with Trump, Lists Reasons for Concern
I know, and I never made this assumption. However, it suggests that American born may not be so interested in these jobs, and leave them to foreigners, whether legal or illegal.

And if it could be distinguished between 'good' agricultural jobs and agricultural <deleted> jobs, I would not be surprised if most of the <deleted>job workers were foreign-born (with a significant share being illegals).

Human trafficking ring busted: Underage girls lured to sell virginity to Chinese investors for 200,000 baht
From what I read in recent posts, it seems that two issues are confused. One is how to punish sex crimes against minors. Some people argue for death penalty. I am not convinced it would have much effect but that's a question of opinion. In my opinion, the first priority is to make sure all these crimes are identified, not covered up, halted, and punished. I guess we are far from it even if it significantly improved in recent years. The other is how to prevent such crimes to happen. This cannot be done without first understanding the psychological, sociological and economic aspects, just as other issues. And then implementing programs to prevent them. BTW, what about marriage between adults and children? Who's pushing for it, and who's pushing against it? Conservative leaning religious groups? The so-called Liberal woke?

That's complete B.S. Societies are now much less tolerant about pedophilia than they were in the past. Sex crimes against minors have been covered up in the past, I.e. sex crimes by priests, show business people, and political figures. And the so-called "woke" in particular the mee too movement, put more pressure to fight sex crimes, including against minors.

On top of it, recent evidence shows that while the Capitol was assaulted, Trump was calling congressmen to convince them to block the certification of the election.

Right.

So Ukraine must be invaded because of the war in Iraq? That's completely incoherent.
