politics

they captured a handful of outposts near the capital, and ig their hope is by making a move before Trump takes office, there's at least a chance of them getting more support/money

Israel/Turkey would LOVE the US to prop them up more, because they use these proxy armies to keep Syria in check

unrelated: Trump did put out a retarded statment today

Most based thing Biden has done

YES

Please Joe I wanna see carnage, unleash dark Brandon

Get weird

I mean why wouldn't he?

He said he wouldn’t apparently

I think presidents should use the pardon on who ever the want as a get out of jail free card.

he should pardon trump

It would do nothing and be meaningless

but he should

apparently you can preemptively pardon

preemptively pardon trump for russian collusion

apparently the biden pardon includes all the foreign influence selling

so that was a fucking lie

here's a nice map

He's getting a bit ahead of himself

The best thing to do is threaten to stop protecting trade that doesn't use the USD after we reshore manufacturing with tariffs, not use them to short companies by overdoing them

classic politician behavior

I like the retard-future design that Tesla's Cybertruck started

I agree I like retarded-future concept cars, jaguars new logo is gay still. I like the little eye emblem at least.

it would probably look better if it was in a different color, or at least didnt match the background color

this picture is bad

but also i'm not someone who ever understood what people saw when they talked about "good looking cars" and "ugly cars" until the cybertruck which is an abomination, but its a funny abomination

This is a good looking car, some are even saying its the best

this hunter biden pardon could end up making the supreme court establish limits on the power of pardon

or maybe trigger an amendment

Why? He literally did what the pardon is there for

on your way out, just say "hey you are no longer culpible for your crimes"

I see zero issue with him pardoning his son other than lmao politician lying about how he'd never do that

partially because the special counsel that was investigating and charging hunter isn't dropping the case

and there is no precedent for blanket pardoning 10 years of crimes

it makes all crime legal if its done through the president's proxy

yeah?

that is literally the point of the pardon

your crime is forgiven

^

people will bitch, but nothing will happen

Biden used it correctly, in that he waited until the end of his term

and the pardon, aside from being in the constitution, is kind of a logical requirement for the executive branch to have

trump would of done the same

infact trump would of done it earlier

I would also be mad at trump if he was selling foreign influence by proxy

WAR PLAN RED

We are not even ripping off the US

we are ripping off Canadians by mass importing indians to supress wages

How does this affect you personally though

the indian thing or trump wanting a tarrif war?

There are visibly more indians, but since I am not trying to do low skilled work they are not direct competition with me

minimum wage workers are fucked though

Also they nuked the reputation of dozens of colleges fucking over anyone who got a degree from those schools before they became degree mills, also does not affect me though

It's hard for the US to know what to focus on, but I do think in the long-term trying to annex or form a customs union with Canada is smart

whether it's more expedient to do that via being friendly or via competition, who knows

I think most Americans have a positive opinion of Canadians

i think invading and annexing mexico is more likely than annexing canada peacefully or otherwise

if mexico can't get rid of the CIA's drug cartels...

and I assume even Gent-types would be ok with the Candian gene pool

I think gent is anti indian

actually

Canada is still majority White Pika

even with your 10M Indians or w/e

but canadian culture is all about "we aren't the USA" they would never accept an american integration

I know lol

we don't want quebec so all the haters can just move there

Thoughts on Trump appointing George Zoros former accountant as treasury secretary btw lol?

the only person trump is appointing that i actually know is the border czar himself

there's RFK, Tulsi Gabbard, Vince McMahon's wife, the DOGE bros

Imo, I've got some hope Elon could do something with the DOGE, but it's just an advisory agency as well so Trump might just ignore everything they do there depending on where his thoughts truly lie

For Vivek, I think he's too ideological and libertarianbrained to make correct cuts that would make government actually run better, but in general it remains to be seen what happens with that

Now I have no idea what the situation actually is with crime for you guys, but from what I've seen it seems pretty bad in like new york and la and I'd expect the republicans might clean that up, so I was kind of happy to see them win big

They won't
