Not an American but live here. But I don’t understand the fixation of US in middle east theatre. With the abundance of onshore oil through fracking revolution, presumably US doesn’t need to police the Middle East. The president himself said

Our current president himself seems to be AI sometimes. Constantly improvising, strategizing by the moment, posting memes of him as messiah and what not. What a wild time to live in!

Duh. History in last 30yrs show invading another country in the name of “liberation” always leads to more radicalization. Nothing new. Germany and Japan were different times and civilizations. Also at a time when the global sentiment for bo

As someone who lives in WA, I despise how bad any state government run program here is. Literally it took me 3 months to get a SSN and I couldn’t get hold of anyone. Also on top of this tax, they have this care tax which also taxes 1% of yo

What an utter betrayal of no war by DJT. This is the final straw. Era of Trump is dead, we are back to neoconservative era. I guess Adelsons are too hard to say no to.

FT is a globalist mouthpiece. I don’t support tariff but it being used as a negotiating technique is the only choice here to reduce trade deficit. US can’t keep up the trade deficit it currently has. It requires endless fiscal deficit and s

Europe and Europeans are turning themselves into museums and museum showcase. What’s new? A defeated nation waiting for its death knell in the coffin by its unelected leaders.

Isn’t that the guy that said inflation is not on the table till like 2023? Why would anyone believe? Reminds me of Nassim Taleb saying “ Being an economist is the least ethical profession, closer to charlatanism than any science”.

There is also something geopolitically playing here. Trump administration recently threatened India with tariffs and when it didn’t budge, many of its key MAGA voices (Bannon and as such) tweeted asking for the exact same thing he just did.

How many million of dollars were spent in this spectacle? And to my average American, 50% of who seemingly live paycheck to paycheck, is this what you want your government to be doing? Asking as a Canadian.

I thought when Donald Trump did something similar back in 2018, it was a big no. How come everyone is now rallying behind this? Something is fishy.
