A South Florida business partner of Rudy Giuliani’s indicted Ukrainian associate pleaded guilty Thursday to counts of wire fraud conspiracy and making false statements in a federal affidavit.

Pursuant to plea agreement with federal prosecutors, David Correia pleaded guilty this morning to two counts of a seven-count superseding indictment in a case where he and Lev Parnas are charged with defrauding investors in a would-be company named “Fraud Guarantee.”

There is a stale debate in Washington over whether President Xi Jinping wants Trump or Biden to win November’s presidential elections, and might he tilt everything from trade decisions to intelligence operations to extract his preferred outcome.

China’s Xi casts his vote in U.S. elections. (Hint: it’s not for Trump or Biden)

The reality is that President Xi has already decided who he prefers to be the victor in our 2020 elections – and that would be China.

We’re in the systemic struggle of our age, and the U.S. democratic system is facing one of the great stress tests of its history without any certainty about the outcome. The situation is bound to get messier through the elections and, perhaps, far beyond.

The United States won its global role on the attractiveness of its values and the effectiveness of its institutions, charms that were tarnished even before the country’s worst-in-class performance in the face of coronavirus. Deaths this week in the U.S. hit a world record 233,437 while China is at 4,634, leaving allies around the world bewildered about their favorite superpower. www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/

Chinese leaders are telling their global partners this confirms further that the United States is a declining leader with a faltering model. Beijing underscores the value of their brand of leadership, which focuses more on being at the center of global influence that on being atop the heap.

China remains busy, seizing opportunities wherever it senses America has left behind a global leadership vacuum worth filling. In the face of COVID-19, it has demonstrated a remarkable ability to multi-task. The evidence of that would fill volumes.

Chinese military leaders have said they’d like to make Taiwan their own by the time of the Chinese Communist Party’s 100th anniversary in July of next year. https://foreignpolicy.com/2020/05/08/us-taiwan-china-relations-stop-pa
ndering-coronavirus/

It will take a far more focused and consistent Washington, acting with greater cohesion alongside its global allies, to deter any such birthday aspirations.

The coronavirus pandemic has left governments in disarray and made planning even weeks ahead difficult. In Beijing this week, however, China's leaders met to set specific policy for much of the coming decade. Key goals that have been previewed in state media include a pivot away from GDP growth at all costs, cutting carbon emissions and achieving self-sufficiency in technology and science, amid increasing pressure from the United States on that front.

This kind of long-term planning is in contrast to the often flip-flopping nature of democracies, where promises and plans set in place by one government are vulnerable to being undone by the next -- a point often highlighted in Chinese state media to defend the legitimacy of Beijing's authoritarian system.

Few American presidents have put this into starker relief than Donald Trump, who upon taking office scrapped a major trade deal, withdrew the US from the Paris climate accord, and set about dismantling the Iran nuclear agreement, essentially reversing all the long-term policy established by the Obama administration.

This thread is about his removal. Tick tock, he gets his walking papers in a week.

It should be noted that dumbass Ted thought that Impeachment meant removal when he made the Impeachment thread. He wasn't alone. Lefty Twitter lost their fucking mind when they got that hard lesson in Civics.

So despite the 116,812,800 tick tocks that have passed since Ted began his countdown clock to impeachment thread and all these other meaningless countdown threads, all he's left with is a hope and a prayer that "removal" means he won't get reelected.

A naturally occurring feat that has happened twice in my own lifetime, three times in a majority of adult's lifetimes, four times for many of the oldest still among us, and a whopping five times for every woman on this list: https://www.oldest.org/people/living-people-usa/

Conversely speaking, those same 10 women have only witnessed 7 men run the country for two (or more) complete consecutive terms.

Do Right, Be Right. :)

You didn't specify details, so I am curious about your count.

The most recent would have been (1) Bush41 in 1992. 28 years ago.
Before that was (2) Carter in 1980. 40 years ago.
Ford was never Elected to any National Office, so "reelected" does not apply.
LBJ did not survive the Primaries in 1968.
Ike could not run (term limited) in 1960.
Truman did not survive the Primaries in 1952.
Before that (3) Hoover in 1932. 88 years ago.

Hoover was the last elected incumbent president to lose reelection until Jimmy Carter 48 years later.

Coolidge did not run in 1928.
Wilson did not run in 1920.
Before that, (4) Taft lost in 1912. 108 years ago
Teddy did not run in 1908.
Cleveland did not run in 1896. 124 years ago.


Which ones were you counting or not counting?



With 7 of the 2-term Presidents, that goes back to Wilson, 1913-1921. 100 years ago.

That video shows 50.8% for Obiden, and 42.8% for Trump.
It was posted 26 October 2020. Good prediction from PMSNBC.

Stupid people don't know they're stupid, and they certainly don't realize how obvious it is to others.
