Putin is DEAD with Kremlin 'using body doubles as cover up' - Stalin's great-grandson in bizarre claim https://www.gbnews.com/news/world/putin-dead-latest-kremlin-body-doubles-stalin

Yes, but which one?

We understand. That's why we blowed up Nordstream.

massaging the truth A veiled or masked truth that is actually a downright lie. https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=massaging the truth

Man from China no longer need you. Buh-bye, don't let the made-in-China from Chinese aluminium screen door hit'cha on the way out.

Beijing warns countries against colluding with US to restrict trade with China Beijing has warned its trading partners against succumbing to US pressure to isolate China in President Donald Trump’s tariff war, as part of its carrot-and-stick approach to win over countries caught between the world’s two largest economies. Commenting on recent media reports about the Trump administration’s plans to pressure countries into restricting trade with China in exchange for exemptions from US tariffs, a spokesperson for China’s Commerce Ministry said on Monday: “Appeasement does not bring peace, and compromise does not earn respect.” .. “China firmly opposes any party reaching a deal at the expense of China’s interests. If such a situation arises, China will not accept it and will resolutely take reciprocal countermeasures,” the spokesperson added. https://edition.cnn.com/2025/04/20/business/china-warns-countries-us-trade-war-intl-hnk/index.html

But that's where all the "raw moons" are located!

And how will this affect the annual $1 Trillion cost of servicing the debt? But more importantly, will we be able to afford Trump's $1 Trillion "Gun and Knife" budget?

So it's true, then. The Chinese DO steal all our technology.

Almost got it. China on Monday warned other countries against making trade deals with the United States to China’s detriment. Negotiate trade deals to their heart's content, they are sovereign nations. But if they appease Trump by signing deals to reduce tariffs which require countries to exclude trade with China or increase their own tariffs on China, then of course, there will be a response.

So you DO understand there are no negotiations ongoing. Yet. Maybe next month. Or not. Winning!©

Define "talks" and then explain away why these anonymous unnamed "officials" didn't clearly say "trade negotiations." Oh, I see. There were no "officials familiar with the situation" quoted. Just Trump bloviating and Bessent trying to cover for his bosses "misstatements." Wait! I found it! A senior administration official told NBC News on Wednesday that the U.S. is speaking with China on tariffs but at a low level that has not involved Cabinet officials. Essentially what we have is a couple of low-level assistants to third-rank undersecretaries from the State Department meeting with their low-level Chinese counterparts to discuss the size/shape of the table, and the color and air temperature/humidity of the room where the next level of low-level assistants will discuss how many low-level assistants to undersecretaries will host their counterparts at the KTV and the order of K-pop songs to be played to celebrate successfully choosing the font for the placecards. After all, when asked to confirm who was meeting who (not Hu), Trump replied "It doesn't matter who 'they' is." [China is] saying it’s ‘fake news’ that trade talks are happening,” a reporter prompted Trump at the White House. “Well, they had a meeting this morning,” the president replied. “It doesn’t matter who ‘they’ is. We may reveal it later, but they had meetings this morning. And we’ve been meeting with China.” https://nypost.com/2025/04/24/us-news/trump-insists-china-wrong-about-fake-news-tariff-talks-claims-they-talked-today/ Winning!©

Trump says "They are meeting." When asked for clarification, Trump says "It doesn't matter who 'they' is."

Wait, what? Woman stomps another woman to death, "allegedly", caught on CCTV, while the man in the middle records it on his cellphone, gets bail for a murder charge, and then plans to attend the victim's funeral before the trial? Amazing Thailand!
