The Iranian nuclear program is an energy program. We know this because independent inspectors were allowed inside the country to verify that they were only making energy. The last time the US claimed a country was developing nuclear weapons, a million Iraqis died and no nukes were found.

The EU never stopped buying Russian oil. They just pay more to buy it from India.

Unlikely that he won’t get caught eventually.

This legislature has decided to destroy the hemp industry instead of taxing it and to move the state closer to a theocracy.

The man had one foot in the grave his whole presidency.

More lies at 11.

But it says the company is owned by the state. Am I missing something?

I’m unclear as to why the state didn’t rush to get the company the resources to feed these birds.

I agree. Basically every major US highway in every large city displaced multiple Black neighborhoods, built in an evil way to cement segregation and dispossess minorities. And in Dallas they’ve definitely got quite a few more lanes than most.

As the middle class shrinks, societal health will decline until it reaches an equilibrium. Vaccines help compensate for poor health and nutrition, but not all virus strains have a readily available vaccine. These health gaps can only be remedied by addressing poverty and socializing healthcare, as many delay medical treatment due to fear of medical bills.

Lots of Android phones have both. Apple decided to remove it from the iPhone when it introduced Face ID. Having them both in an iPhone would be Apple catching up to everyone else.

Touch ID would be a nice addition and a great callback for a 20th anniversary edition.

To enforce an illegal blockade to prevent sick people from obtaining medicine is a terrible crime. They have sentenced these patients to death for being Palestinian. Palestinian people must be given full human rights.

This is a terrible blow to the public school system. They’re going to keep chipping away at public education until only the rich can send their kids to school.

She was appointed by the leadership of the EU states, who hand-picked the President and approved the members of her commission. Sufficient leverage hasn’t been placed on the EU elected leaders and their states for them to discard her. She would have to cross several European billionaires to be ousted in such a dramatic fashion.

So the US is at war with the country of Yemen? What makes the Trump administration believe that we (Americans) can do anything when the Saudis failed?

May the Yemeni people stand strong in their struggle against genocide and imperialism. May their truths be seen around the world by all mankind.

Europe is having energy problems. Germany especially is seeing its manufacturing capacity decline due to high energy costs. Before Russia intervened directly and the US forced Europe to enact sanctions, they were receiving gas from Russia at a discount and they were paying in Euros. Now they buy expensive LNG from Norway and the USA. They’ve replaced cheap energy with expensive energy.

If NATO hadn’t backed the coup to kick off the Ukraine war, Germany’s car manufacturing would be growing into the EV market instead of shrinking and hobbled. Old allies can’t catch a break.

New NATO countries are finding out that the US can’t afford vassal states like it used to. The Trump administration expects each country to pay for NATO military expenditures. Military budgets are increasing, and countries are trading financial sense to be allies with a declining American empire.

Meanwhile Russia is part of BRICS, an economic bloc that includes more than half the world’s population. And what is Trump’s response? Trump wants to go to war against the biggest economic bloc in world history. Trying to fight half the world in an economic war sounds like a losing strategy if I’ve ever heard one.

Trump knows the proxy war in Ukraine is lost. The Ukrainians had their civil war, and the whole time one side was receiving weapons from NATO and the other side was receiving weapons from Russia. In the end they were unable to come to a unifying agreement, despite multiple peace talks.

Finally, Russia invaded directly and the Ukrainian side receiving their support disappeared from the news. Since Russia invaded we’ve been given this narrative that Putin wants territory, but it’s that side in Ukraine’s civil war that is leading its people to join Russia. They felt that was the better deal and would rather have security than reunify with the other half.

Ukraine is only shrinking because the NATO-backed side started the civil war. These are the consequences of refusing to allow the democratic process to play out. The NATO-backed side lost an election and then initiated a coup in 2014, kickstarting the destruction of their country. Fuck around, find out.

I thought he was going to feed the herb to the chickens and then gather their thc-infused eggs.

They’re really hanging this man out to dry. The reporting I’ve seen indicated that it was the US and Norway which sabotaged the pipeline. But since Zelenskyy is sure to lose they’re setting him up as the fall guy. No doubt they’ll demand wealth from Ukraine to compensate Germany for the pipeline’s destruction.
