At the risk of sounding racist no Chinese can be trusted in negotiations. Or, very few, if that's somehow better.

It's not racist because the reason they are untrustworthy is that they are a communist dictatorship. The same is true of the Norks & Cuba.

Trump's Revealing Choice of Which Foreign Leader Gets Denounced as a 'Dictator'

Because Trump likes to shine a light on things the Media-DC-Academia don't like to talk about

We all know Putin is a dictator (rigged elections and all)

But no one likes to point out that Zelensky is not holding elections and censoring all Media inside Ukraine
Trump's just running front for his boy Putin who's been wanting him gone for a long time. Let's not pretend he's worried about democracy in Ukraine. This is part of the bend over for Vlad that's been oozing out of this admin.

No, but I'm sure in time it's going to be much different than what has been floated publicly. We just need to give him time…


as President Trump has cozied up to Mr. Putin and moved to normalize relations with Russia, Republicans who once vowed to uphold Ukraine's sovereignty have stayed silent or moderated their tone.

Russia isn't the good guys. Neither is Ukraine but I have a hell of a lot of respect for Zelensky fighting for his country. I would prefer not to cozy up to either and I definitely don't like the way we are treating Putin right now.

I have serious doubts Russia stops at Ukraine. If they were anywhere near the power they were 40 years ago I would be 100% certain they won't stop. These days I just don't think they are really able to fight much longer/further.

The impending demographic collapse in Russia and China will reshape geopolitics and possibly within our lifetimes.

I would have a lot more respect for Zelensky if he didn't act like a dictator so much (no elections, censorship, etc) or if his regime weren't so corrupt. Putin is not the good guy but neither is Zelensky.
His term ended 9 months ago, and he's in an imminent threat environment. Putin has been in power for over 25 years. Let's not start drawing parallels just yet.

It's all about actions & behaviors. The comparison is valid for those reasons. Duration isn't really relevant except someone who has done it longer has more experience.

Big that it matters or I really care, but I thought he was Indian-American like Vivak & Vance's wife.

The Federal govt should not give them one more penny for an obvious boondoggle. Make that nickel since pennies are in the way out!

Let's keep politics out of hockey. There is enough politics in everything else! Hockey is pretty much kept itself out of the politics stuff, unlike the NFL, MLB and NBA.

Politics has been in hockey for decades...

But, that was fun... The Russian's were fun to root against. Drago in the Rockie movies.

Trudeau is like beating on a drunk or a pacifist. You always feel bad afterward and the other Canadians are pretty nice guys.

Didn't see the 9/11 stuff. We did our share of booing... Geez, the game was in Boston! Outside of Philly I can't think of a more abusive fan base.

If we wanted nice, play it in Utah or LA...

US Judge clears way for USAID to put more than 2,000 employees on leave
https://www.ktsm.com/news/politics/ap-politics/ap-trump-administration-stalling-medical-evacuation-for-usaid-staffers-spouses-in-peril-suits-charge/


Quote:
WASHINGTON (AP) A federal judge on Friday cleared the way for one of the Trump administration's remaining steps in its dismantling of the U.S. Agency for International Development, allowing it to move forward with pulling thousands of USAID staffers off the job in the United States and around the world.

U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols rejected pleas to keep his temporary stay on the government's plan to remove all but a small fraction of USAID staffers from their posts. His ruling also allows the administration to start the clock ticking on its planned 30-day deadline for USAID workers abroad to move back to the U.S. at government expense.

His ruling comes in a broad lawsuit filed by unions on behalf of the agency staff, especially those at risk of being stranded abroad. The suit describes the Trump administration stalling needed medical evacuations for USAID staffers and spouses overseas, cutting some contractors off from emergency communications, and leaving staffers to flee political violence in Congo without support or funding.

Lets go DOJ. If you dont go after the real criminals they will just get worse. Schiff and Omar go to jail first. (Or deported in her case with her brother-husband.)
