Am I the only one having anxiety about the kinked bend?

Is the best part of, no it’s the only real reason, for in person meetings

Listen to the guy talk and make your own opinion

I do love the level of gaslighting in this thread

If they are mining the strait it’s to put pressure on the US.

They would not give up that pressure.

Also, either they are communicating with the mines to tell them which commercial ships have Chinese bound cargo, (I guess that is possible, but I have never heard of it) or they are indiscriminate.

On the other hand, if they have a live data link to the mines, then that would be a pretty good way for minesweepers to sweep up the mines. That doesn’t sound like a really prudent course of action.

No, but at least one Chinese ship ran the strait yesterday. And a Greek one I think.

Trump and Hegseth aren’t playing 3D anything.

The People’s Liberation Army’s Navy is designed to reach Taiwan. They have no ability to defend ships all the way from the Persian Gulf.

India and every country on the way also NEEDS oil and will go out and take it to prevent disaster in their own countries.

China is at the wrong end of straw.

If this is true, China is soooooooooo fucked.

I’m talking mass starvation.

Reread the comment

Democrats are organizing for the midterms. Add your voice somewhere it counts. The opinions of volunteers and contributors have much more influence than nihilistic comments on an internet chat board

I agree that those data are valuable, but just not forcing someone to do something in a public spat.

Those Social Security data are worthless as a bargaining chip because he would instantly go to jail if he disclosed that he actually had them.

Well much of what he is ordering is already illegal. So passing more laws sort of justifies his lawlessness.

You can’t really kill them. Technically it’s just the President saying do X or Y.

On their own, they have no effect in law.

They only instruct the Executive Branch on how to operate WITHIN existing law.

Isn’t there an effective vaccine for cervical?

Or maybe the time travelers went back and faked his name onto the list as a prank.

Also he said he’s always wanted them, not that he’d never had them.
