It’s funny how Mexico is trying harder than Canada lol.
Mexicans (including the politicians) understand the relationship. They might make some noise, but they know that they're all beaners and would like to be Americans.

Canadians think they're Europeans and are richer, smarter, and better than Americans. It's a complete mindset difference.

Continue to watch the Mexicans move forward while the Canadians run around in a circle.
 
And the japs also need to actually get their (edit) defense (/edit) spending to 2% and then start working to getting it to 5%.

I believe that there are still some limitations to the extent that Japan can rearm or militarize based on treaties they signed with us when they surrendered at the end of WWII. As far as I'm concerned almost no one from that time period is still alive that would be a cause for concern of old grievances and Japan has shown themselves to be capable and trustworthy, so I would have no problem with those restrictions being removed and Japan being able to have a larger and more powerful military if that's what they want.
 
A sentiment I see repeated on this thread (and society in general) way too often from Trump supporters is that they hate him and take back all of their support for him because he did something stupid, i.e "I used to like Trump but then he said Israel was our greatest ally so now I hate him and am voting Democrat next election etc etc etc" or "Trump was based but then he did crypto so he's not based anymore."
I don’t believe for a moment that anyone who says this ever voted for Trump. The only thing he has done that went against what was blatantly known about him was say that H1B comment and he stopped that immediately after the Vivek drama.

Man, I don’t even hate Mexicans. La Raza bitches should be slapped, but you have to earn that.

My problems with Mexico are

1: too buddy buddy with China
2: take a bunch of our manufacturing and still bitch even though it’s getting to be a real toss up whether the US is worth swimming to or not
3: gave the fucking country over to cartels so the most based players in the game are renegade Mormons
4: kept letting the world march through them to invade the US

Stop being hostile bitches and we can be friends
 
Fetterman will never get the nomination, he's broken ranks too many times, plus his health issues will be a political field day for his opponents.
I'm sure he talked with Vance at Marlago. Fetterman would never get the nomination because he isn't a hardcore partisan and isn't in the "resistance".
Trump signed an EO eliminating steel tariff exemptions for all country's. Thats a very big deal for Fetterman's constituents.
Apparently Gavin newsom did a sit down interview with Charlie Kirk? He seems to be trying to rehabilitate his image as a "reasonable middleman guy" and apparently his son is a fan of Kirk? Weird. apparently the full episode is only on Spotify and Apple


I don't understand how we're still at the point that people still believe what comes out of Team Blue's filthy cock holsters when they're pretending to be "moderate." They do this all the time, Fetterman is not based, he's not moderate, he never votes against his fellow progtards when it actually matters. He's a trust fund kid pretending to be "working class" by dressing like white trash. Just like Newsom is trying to brand himself as more moderate. They are lying, they are always lying to you, they believe that words are magic spells and if they say the right combination that you will believe they're human beings and not demons. Actions, not words, progtards use words to lull you into a false sense of security so they can destroy you.

This is why we don't win, all y'all have a case of Gell-Mann amnesia that has metastasized. Christ above.
 
Encasing someone in crystal is a concept that has existed in fantasy for far longer than any video game, whether it's the legend of zelda, skyrim, or anything else. You'd probably be hard pressed to find the first instance of it because the damsel in distress being trapped is a trope as old as humans have told stories.

To be fair, the US helped with that bit or at least, the ATF. Still, I rather see their country do well and have a good relationship with the US.

Countries being able to stand on their own are better deterrents to your enemies than to just subverting them, fucking them over and practically being responsible for them forever.

I voted for Trump in 2016 because the Clintons are awful. I wanted to shake up american politics and "own the libs" due to peak bullshit in 2016. Saying that covid wasn't real and it was a "liberal hoax" was the last nail in the coffin for me. Politicians are not gods. When they fuck up they should be held accountable, if there is nothing someone can do to lose your support, you are brainwashed.

Modern political outlook has been so warped by social media BPD-ness that I 1000% believe someone who votes for Trump could have this outlook. Consider that groypers are technically "on your side" because most of them voted for Trump but they're the first ones to start dooming when things don't go perfectly According to Plvn.
 
In the Japs defense their constitution, the one the US forced on them after the war, does not allow the Japs to have a standing army, navy or airforce. They were allowed a tiny self defense force by the US in the treaty but that was it. So no way could they spend 3% on defense unless they handed every JSDF solider a gold M-16.

It was only 3 years ago they were allowed to alter the constitution to permit them to raise actual fighting forces. So yah give them some time and Japan will be a powerful ally in the East.
its actually funny, the US was more cool with Japan having a military then they were with West Germany after WW2
The Mexicans have bent the knee. Soon, the leaves too shall be raked.

Canada is more involved with globohomo then Mexico honestly, your average Mexican is too concerned with avoiding having their families killed by the Cartel, Trudeau is a Dictator.

Didn't the Obama administration sell guns to the cartels under some retarded federal "sting" program?

Edit: Operation Fast and Furious
 
Good start, big if true. But IIRC one of the problems Null had was that he was being tagged for fraud, not reputational risk. RR was the excuse given to debank a bunch of conservatives back in 2016, they've evolved their excuses (when they bother to give them now). To address the fraud thing, they'd have to add prohibitions against "fraud categories", which will be harder to do because some categories are more fraudulent, like gambling sites. Whatever they use to tag conservative sites--politics, free speech, radicalism, etc--is probably fluid enough that they can keep trying to dodge specific regulation.
It's truly demented that this site gets Null tagged for fraud yet basically every mainstream social media platform is actually filled to the fucking brim with fraudsters and scam artists who use those platforms as an intermediary for (and a means of signal boosting) their own fraud-ridden platforms. Section 230 is absolutely a good thing but I'm so sick of big companies who own big sites with obvious ideological slants getting away with being lazy and negligent while never being at risk of debanking, litigation, or shutdown.

Not only that, but the goal of the Obama administration was to use those armed cartels as the political impetus for banning assault rifles and cracking down on certain legal gun purchases. It didn't work out as planned because local gun stores reported the sketchy sales as per the rules. Also, certain members of the ATF and DEA saw what was going on and blew the whistle. Dennis Burke, then-AG for Arizona, let slip that the program was real and it was at that point that the ATF threw federal prosecutor Emory Hurley under the bus. Once Chuck Grassley (Senator from Iowa) got his hands on this, it was over - and this was during Obongo's first term when all his fuckery resulted in a Republican majority in the House.

Obama didn't want to get dinged for fucking with Mexico so his administration, along with the media sucking on his ugly dick, ran defense. A ton of people died because of the ATF gunwalking scandal but Obama had no scandals, stalker child.

Edit to add: OH YEAH, and Dennis Burke fucking leaked information about one of the ATF whistleblowers to fuck with him and survived by the skin of his teeth by resigning. It was all a complete clusterfuck that the powers that be don't want you to remember.
