    Trump retweets video declaring 'the only good Democrat is a dead Democrat'

    I find it hard to fee any pity for the many that are personally effected by or find these acts of destruction abhorrent. I’m an expat in Asia. Voted for the current administration. The US company I work for here makes billions each year in profit from Hong Kong, approx. 17% of global revenue...

    'When the looting starts, the shooting starts': Trump outraged by Minnesota protests

    I can’t feel any pity or compassion for the current situation. Many posters here would trash the government of my hometown and country, standing with the “Peaceful protestors” of Hong Kong, when in actual fact, things were way worse then what is happening in the States. In HK, the “peaceful”...

    Beijing For Small-Scale Military Offensive Against India: Chinese Daily

    China's not stupid enough to start a 2/3 front war, unless they have had assurances from Trump & Putin.

    Otto Warmbier has died days after release from North Korea, hospital says

    I can personally assure you that China is NO WAY IN HELL ANYWHERE EVEN CLOSE to the ****hole that is NK. Everyone I know, whether from or have traveled to China, sees these tour "deals" in Dalian or Shenyang, or people passing out "NK Tourism" flyers on the street. You know what happens? They...

    Chinese tabloid says U.S. needs to 'wage war' to block off South China Sea islands

    Re: Chinese tabloid says U.S. needs to 'wage war' to block off South China Sea island 1. The Permanent Court of Arbitration is NOT a "UN sponsored" anything. It's a court of ARBITRATION, meaning between TWO PARTIES. It has no legal ability nor authority to do jack **** to China, especially...

    Another day in France

    Some people actually care about what happens to their country and descendants when they're no longer here, you know.

    Sources: Trump will ask Congress, not Mexico, to pay for border wall

    I sincerely hope that, when the incoming POTUS uses a combination of mass deportations, increasing funding for border agents and equipment, stun-lethal electric fencing, and Israel's tunnel detection "Underground Iron Dome" system, while imposing tariffs, stopping aid, even possible sanctions...

    Sources: Trump will ask Congress, not Mexico, to pay for border wall

    Still don't get how people don't understand this issue. The man's been extremely successful in RED (real estate development). You usually don't get a contractor that does shoddy work/failed to uphold his terms of the agreement, to pay back money. They refuse, use legal loopholes (at least...

    U.S. Army eases rules on beards, turbans for Muslim, Sikh troops

    As long as it doesn't put their lives, or the lives of their fellows in danger (can't think of anything here except for the issue with beards and masks above), while being something that is important to their self-identity, who cares? The point is that they are willing to risk their lives to...

    10 Ways Donald Trump Can Cut Waste - Our Advice From OpenTheBooks.com

    Yet support for more and more government involvement, producing generations of welfare and an exploding federal deficit, "offloading those costs onto the next generations", are fine.

    Another day in France

    China's governance of minorities, including the Muslim Uyghurs, is also fraught with problems, but the general method is some sort of separation/ apartheid. May not be PC, but it has seemed to work (for the most part). Minorities tend to congregate, which makes it easier for the PRC to govern as...

    Another day in France

    May be interesting for the Auvergnat (and others) here. Hope you and others keep up the fight and change this situation. - Search "法国自取灭亡“ (France seeking self-destruction) via google, or preferably Chinese search engines like baidu / qq. - Various articles and opinion pieces pop up. One...

    Trump appoints 'Death by China' author Peter Navarro to run new White House trade off

    Re: Trump appoints 'Death by China' author Peter Navarro to run new White House trade Have found myself in disagreement with most of Tangmo's posts on China / Taiwan / Hong Kong, but seems like we're aligned here. Good post, and hope people read up more on the issue. We've got the possibility...
