He largely campaigned on the evils of China and how they play us for the fools regarding trade and currency but, you're probably correct in that nobody in the rustbelt will understand or care.

Olbermann is the fire and brimstone that's needed. Anyhow at least he never got played like Maddow and those trump taxes

America first! China the currency manipulator will no longer take advantage of us. Jobs will return!
Unless China helps with my NK problem. In which case I'll give them a better deal!

The USA apparently confirmed that they are responsible for the contaminated soils and water in the town near their military base in my island.
It's something that has been suspected for years and a recent study believes that contamination is responsible for the above average rate of diagnosed cancers in the area.
While we don't live near there, my mother teached in a school near the base for nearly 20 years and died of cancer 16 years.
Her side of the family has a past of multiple people dying from cancer but I sometimes wonder if the contamination didn't actually aggravated her chances of getting cancer.
The Portuguese government is still waiting to hear what the USA plans to do to for decontaminate the area, if anything at all.

The regional government probably also hid the situation for a long time as the base had an huge impact on the economy of the area.
This thing is getting more exposure now probably because the USA reduced their presence recently.
Investigators from the local University have been claiming this for years and believe this has been happening for 40 years.

Trump is susceptible to whatever the last person in front of him says. He's an infantile moron with a 100 word vocabulary and no real opinions of his own, so naturally he just buys into whatever Xi is selling. (Not that I think is flip flopping is bad here. The positional changes he made are better for America on the world stage.)
Like, Trump came away from his meeting with Xi talking about chocolate cake. He could not be more of an impotent stooge.

Full bill coming today.
Full bill coming today.
The Liberal government has tabled legislation to end the prohibition on pot and regulate it for recreational use, checking off a major campaign promise from the 2015 campaign.
The legislation allows people to possess up to 30 grams of dried or fresh cannabis and sets the minimum at 18 years of age, though provinces can set a higher legal age.
Consumers can grow up to four plants at home or buy from a licensed retailer. Dried and fresh cannabis and cannabis oil will be available first, with edible products to become available later, according to information provided to reporters by Health Canada.
The new legislation provides for ticketing for possession that exceeds the personal limit by small amounts, or up to 14 years in jail for an illegal distribution or sale, and imposes tough new penalties of up to 14 years in jail for giving or selling marijuana to minors.
A new offence with a penalty of up to 14 years in jail will also be created for using a youth to commit a cannabis-related offence.
The new bill also:
Prohibits marketing to appeal to youth.
Prohibits sales through self-service display or vending machines.
Makes it illegal to drive within two hours of having an illegal level of drugs in the blood, with penalties ranging from a $1,000 fine to life imprisonment, depending on the level of drugs in the blood and whether someone was injured or killed as a result of the impairment.
Sounds like we're successfully creating the terrorists of tomorrow. So that's something...
Double digit dead allies. Yikes.

I think the idea of "if we just leave ppl alone or give them free stuff they'd never want to kill us" is really, really naive.

We don't have to make their recruiting pitches pro bono tho.
Wait, we dropped a MOAB in Afghanistan? What the fuck. What decade is this?
Apparently that thing costs over $300mil to deploy. Wow.

It is, but dusty dudes in caves don't have to try anymore. When Obama was spamming the red button, he wasn't sounding like a moron while doing it. Trump can't keep his mouth closed and his fuck ups (and the military) aren't spaced out. The Russia ish with him and his crew doesn't help either.
That wasn't as much of a waste as the Syria airfield stuff at all... pretty sure that was aimed at the mountain/tunnel networks that we've been stuck staring at for a decade. Artillery can only do so much.
Plus its one hell of a send off for the guy that just died out there.
Yeah, there are the hundreds of thousands with bones to pick and then there are the tens of millions who need a paycheck too.
Ideology don't pay the bills.

hard to say what inspires these guys honestly
you we got a series of attacks in Obama's last year like it was building up to something and then just....nothing. Trump comes in and there are tons of prime terrorist spots (Inauguration, Womens March, etc) and nothing, Trump actually gives terrorists a great reason to attack the US with his anti-muslim rhetoric and executive orders and...nothing.
*shrug*

By reilo Go To PostI still like the idea of Wikileaks but Wikileaks itself has to go. It's an embarrassment.
We knew this was going to happen. Might not happen tomorrow but it'll happen sooner rather than later.
One source suggested the official investigation was making progress. “They now have specific concrete and corroborative evidence of collusion,” the source said. “This is between people in the Trump campaign and agents of [Russian] influence relating to the use of hacked material.”https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2017/apr/13/british-spies-first-to-spot-trump-team-links-russia

There is plenty of time and will be plenty of opportunities. Don't think it is because of anything Trump is doing to deter them.

It is better than the alternative.
A MOAB
Brehs literally reenacting MW3
Wouldn't surprise me at all if MOAB was a flex move against NK either

You talking about preemptively striking or the guardian Russian stuff?
I'm curious why the admin would mention a strike right now. If you don't follow though after NK test, and they will test, you look weak
By Smokey Go To PostWouldn't surprise me at all if MOAB was a flex move against NK either
Apparently there are 19 more of them. I mean, they're not going to explode themselves.
By DY_nasty Go To PostAlways been jokesStill a good idea.
Whatever happened to the alternative that was set up by one of the guys that quit Wikileaks?

Our defense budget is us flexing.
Doubt the two are related.
