The problem with this plan lies in the “men can give birth” arena. Russia decides over and over again that another country is not really a country. And that its sovereignty is not real sovereignty. And then it attacks that country with complete certainty of not having violated its commitment to not attack other countries.

What needs to happen for people to understand the underlying principle of neoliberalism is that there is no reality? Reality is whatever I say it is at any given moment. The fight against the manifestations of this approach is doomed until you at the very least understand the rules of the game.

    “Witkoff: Russia will legally enshrine”

    This is what I mean when I say Trump is not a good judge of character or competence.

    Witkoff is spectacularly stupid and should have been thanked for his service and kept far, far away from any government russia policy long, long ago.

    Trump is, at heart, a faker. He tapped into genuine anger on a lot of issues but since he doesn’t really have strong feelings about most of them (or his strong feelings are at odds with those of his followers) he goes for surface appearances rather than substantive policy which he does not especially seem capable of.

    He actually had russia worried but then they gaslit him and they get more time and know they never have to change while he’s in office.

    Would love to be proved wrong…. but yikes, what a shit show, so far….

      We are back to Trump’s first administration. A lot of weakness on top of weakness on top of weakness. A Subway sandwich of weakness.

        Well, the priorities of this administration are clear at this point.

          There’s always time and energy for that sort of thing. But nothing for this:

            Saw that earlier. I’ve posted here before about how corrupt the CDL system is in canada and US, with sikh companies bringing these illiterates from villages in punjab. Of course california gives this piece of shit a license.

            Everyone who allowed this man to drive on the road needs to be in jail and his company sued into oblivion.

            By the way, it’s the same guy who drove a 39 ton truck over a 6 ton capacity historic bridge a few years ago.

            Harjinder Singh, the illegal Punjabi who killed three people in a reckless U-turn last week, is the same man who destroyed a historic Arkansas bridge in 2019.

              The same one???

              We are getting wiped out in 2026, aren’t we? The Dem voters notice nothing and care about nothing. They are lemmings. But our voters aren’t blind. If this kind of thing doesn’t stop, we are screwed.

            I’m sorry that you have been so traumatized by this word. Which verb do you employ when describing whether something factors into someone’s decisions?
