  1. Did you yourself personally open your telephone SIM account under your name? And that is the mobile number associated with your bank account(s)? If so, you 'should' be fine.
  2. Sneak over border illegally ≠ law abiding. Not same-same. Shirley, you understand they are by definition criminals. Do you want criminals giving granny a sponge bath? Do you want criminals handling grampa's meds at the nursing home? But to soothe your hurt feelzies, yes, Virginia, there is a path to legal status. Self-deport, then attend nearest US embassy or consulate and apply for LEGAL visa to visit and/or work in the United States. Gosh! Who knew following the law and adhering to established immigration regulations would keep one LEGAL!
  3. There's always room in BRICS.
  4. Who says it came from nothing? Well, besides folks that simplify big bang cosmology to that simple strawman, so they can by default claim their magic dude in the sky poofed it into existance......from nothing.
  5. That's only part of it. It requires that all goods transported by water between U.S. ports be carried on ships that have been constructed in the United States and that fly the U.S. flag, are owned by U.S. citizens, and are crewed by U.S. citizens and U.S. permanent residents.
  6. Egypt should respond by implementing an additional tariff of 10% on US shipping, and a corresponding BRICS reduction of 10% on Chinese ships. "Make Egypt Great Again"
  7. Go to website, reset password. Note this part: You will also be asked to confirm your phone number or email address. The SSA will send you a security code to either your phone or email and you will need to enter that code in the appropriate text box.

  8. They relied on a supplier that never shut off the gas, not even during the coldest of the cold war, providing clean, efficient, low-cost energy to support their industries. Of course they laughed. That's why Biden had to blow up Nordstream. Yeah, who's laughing now!
  9. Lucky for us, the big pharmaceuticals won't pass on the higher costs of these ingredients to the consumer. These tariffs are paid by the exporting country, not taxes paid by the end user. Trump is such a genius, I'ma bet this will result in a reduction in health insurance premiums! Winning!©
  10. We've been here before, and recently. “[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/
  11. At least wait until there is a resolution to the tax situation. Last I heard, legislation is still pending for Thailand to move to global taxation.
  12. Probably just another Falun Gong propaganda piece hitting all the pressure points of western sensibilities. Retweeted, linked and liked, bounced around the disinformation echosphere, and now it's the absolute truthy.
  13. 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
  14. Yes, but which one?
  15. We understand. That's why we blowed up Nordstream.
  16. massaging the truth A veiled or masked truth that is actually a downright lie. https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=massaging the truth
  17. 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.
  18. 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
  19. But that's where all the "raw moons" are located!
  20. 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?
  21. So it's true, then. The Chinese DO steal all our technology.
  22. 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.
  23. So you DO understand there are no negotiations ongoing. Yet. Maybe next month. Or not. Winning!©
  24. 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!©
