  1. The one thing that would bring stability and peace to Ukraine would be NATO membership. After massive war crimes, Russia does not get to deny any country NATO membership.
  2. Yes, but how was SHE a DEI hire?
  3. Nobody except the countries arming Ukraine to the teeth.
  4. He might want avoid standing near windows if he's thinking about it.
  5. A nuke in Ukraine would likely invoke a nuclear response but it's unlikely to come from the US.
  6. The rationale is that there is balance between the cost of the tariffs and the resultant job creation that the tariffs stimulate. In the end what hurts the consumers is that the price for their purchases go up. In the short term, if consumers are forced to pay extra because they can't buy a local equivalent for less than the tariff. Price inflation occurs and consumers require higher wages to pay for their purchases. Higher wages pushes and entrenches the new price. If the tariffs create new demand for a workforce, one of two things has to happen. Either wages go up or immigrants are imported to fill the increased demand for workers to manufacture goods in the US.
  7. I agreed with everything until "would be prepared to use them". The consequences for Russia would be incalculable.
  8. “It is time for a woman to sit among the highest jurists,” Reagan said, as he worked to close a gender gap in his run against President Carter and change the subject from a foot-in-mouth comment the Republican made blaming trees for air pollution. The vow to appoint “the most qualified woman I can possibly find” to the Supreme Court was motivated by one thing alone: political self-interest. https://www.latimes.com/politics/story/2022-02-01/biden-reagan-supreme-court-politics
  9. If Putin uses small nuclear weapons in Ukraine, NATO uses big nuclear weapons in Russia and Putin knows it.
  10. When Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson was up for confirmation or when VP Harris was added to the ticket, they called them DEI hires. They want you to believe that Harvard graduate with over 20 years of experience is not qualified but Fox personality is qualified to run the DOD
  11. Being gay is a long way from needing a sex change. Keep praying.
  12. Oklahoma State Superintendent Ryan Walters insisted he would "absolutely" penalize schools that don't show a video of him praying for President-elect Donald Trump. The state's top education official insisted that the country's founders "had no problem with religion interfering with government." https://www.rawstory.com/ryan-walters-trump-prayer-324/
  13. Cut the never ever mooted hypotheticals. You are not an international diplomat.
  14. Yes, Putin should think about the inevitable consequences of his first use if nuclear weapons. If he hasn't his generals have surely reminded him.
  15. Putin has never suggested that Ukraine can join NATO, quite the opposite. He's not just trying to annex Crimea and the Donbas. Stop insulting our intelligence.
  16. It's the trend lately. Like the animal farm coming to the white house.
  17. When did Russia help Ukraine? I'm totally not getting this attitude that Ukraine should somehow reward Putin for murdering Ukrainian babies. Maybe you can explain that logic to me a little more clearly?
  18. At that point Russia will find itself a pariah nation for the next century. Broke and rife with poverty and internal division.
  19. "Homan, the former acting director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), clarified that the military's involvement would be strictly administrative, aiding ICE operations rather than engaging in direct enforcement actions. " Of course. Hands up everybody who thought Trump meant it.
  20. Yes, and until Russia pays reparations to compensate Ukraine. Keep bombing Moscow until Putin gets it.
  21. Careful what you're calling normal. Baseless, unrelenting vicious hatred of minorities isn't normal.
  22. Yeah, like in 2014 what was Ukraine going to do about it? Crimea was a wake up call. Putin miscalculated in 2022.
  23. You seem to think he's going to fix these? What a joke. He's only going to dismantle government. That's his marching orders from the Heritage foundation with Musk as their chief enforcer.
