Nah.
Never.

Loser.

SECOND: I've got an answer, but first a question. Signym, Kissinger never said the words in your signature and yet you never correct your signature. Why not? The correction is as easy as removing two words from the signature: Henry Kissinger.

I quoted Kissinger in full. He said exactly that. SECOND is an idiot and a liar with an axe to grind.

What are America's needs? My answer: all Trumptards out of government. All other problems will be solvable with those people out of the decision loops. The Trumptards can run their own individual lives but they should not be allowed anywhere near other people and their property. Let the Trumptards mess up their own lives but not be allowed interference with other lives.

THUGR: What TWO said. Yup, I agree.

So, comrade SIGNYM a question from me. What justification does Russia have for going into Ukraine? Both times comrade. First time in 2014 I think it was. It is obvious the Ukrainians don't want them there. I predict you will say elections were held and they want Russia there. Which would explain why they are killing Russians as quick as they can.



THUGR, you pretend that we didn't have any problems before Trump??
:

One idiot with an axe to grind agreeing with another idiot with an axe to grind.

You're a waste of time. You lost and will continue to lose bc you believe in an alternate reality, and the real world is coming to get you.






No comrade, you and Jack make shit up and attribute it to others. Whenever a MAGA or Russian propagandist say someone does or says something, they are always speaking about themselves.

"I don't find this stuff amusing anymore." ~Paul Simon

Our family ran a natural experiment. My sisters married Trumptards. They didn't know because Trump's political career was decades in the future but there were signs. The sisters got jobs as a school teacher and a nurse while the Trumptards took crap jobs that seemed easy. The sisters are multimillionaires who still work despite being 67 and 74. They like their jobs as I like mine. As for the Trumptard husbands, they are bitter that their "careers" didn't go well, disappointed that being lazy, stupid, dishonest fools is not a path to success. But, somehow, Trump will fix it for them as only he can do.

"It may be dangerous to be America's enemy, but to be America's friend is fatal." - Henry Kissinger

It was the "then" clause of a conditional statement:

Word should be gotten to Nixon that if Thieu meets the same fate as Diem, the word will go out to the nations of the world that it may be dangerous to be America's enemy, but to be America's friend is fatal.

Kissinger said this in late November 1968 after Nixon was elected president, but before Nixon was inaugurated.

It wasn't a public statement, just a statement to William F. Buckley Jr. in a phone call, with Buckley taking notes, so it isn't verifiable beyond Buckley (author of United Nations Journal: A Delegate's Odyssey).

Exclusive: The full text of the US-Ukraine mineral deal

By The Kyiv Independent | February 26, 2025 3:25 PM

https://kyivindependent.com/exclusive-the-full-text-of-the-final-us-uk
raine-mineral-agreement
/

Kyiv and Washington agreed on a deal on Feb. 25. The negotiations around the deal have fueled tensions between U.S. President Donald Trump and President Volodymyr Zelensky in the past week.

My translation of Trump’s dumb "deal":

1. There is a fund. The US share of the fund will be "to the extent permissible under applicable United States laws." Details will come later in a Fund Agreement.

2. The fund will collect money contributed to the fund.

3. Ukraine will contribute to the fund 50% of all money earned from mining of natural resources.

4. The US supports a prosperous Ukraine.

5. The fund will invest in Ukranian projects, mainly mineral extraction.

6. Ukraine won't sign any deals that encumber the fund.

7. The fund is commercial in nature.

8. The Fund Agreement will ensure the fund can't evade sanctions.

9. The Fund Agreement will be developed soon.

10. This agreement will be part of lasting peace.

11. This agreement is binding.

The US gets nothing out of this. Some unspecified share of an investment fund that may or not ever be profitable, I guess. It doesn't seem to be much of a deal.

Donald Trump has threatened to slap 25% tariffs on the European Union, claiming the 27-country bloc was “formed to screw the United States”.

Speaking at his first cabinet meeting on Wednesday, the US president said he would soon release details of the latest tariff threat. “We have made a decision and we’ll be announcing it very soon. It’ll be 25%,” he said.

Many economists and even conservative publications, including the Wall Street Journal, have warned that Trump’s plans risk hurting the US economy. On Wednesday, Trump took to Truth Social, his social media platform, to attack a Journal editorial that argued his tariffs on Canada and Mexico would backfire, hurting the US economy.

Calling the argument “soooo wrong”, Trump wrote: “The tariffs will drive massive amounts of auto manufacturing to MICHIGAN, a State which I just easily one [sic] in the Presidential Election,” he wrote.

We know.

The results were that your mother should have aborted you after all.
