My favorite is how they claim that PRC doesn't invade anyone, ignorant of their attempts in Korea (Korean War) and Vietnam (after the Americans left).

I need this poster or canvas printed so I can hang it on my office wall...

Stupid and unlikely thought I had: The West don't want Russia to know just how weak it really is against the West so that Russia doesn't kick itself into high gear trying to truly modernize its forces by eliminating the grift and corruption that plagues its MIC. A Russia plagued by a corrupt military is a Russia that is essentially toothless in an armed conflict.

Of course, this doesn't excuse not allowing deep Russian strikes with already provided equipment.

Requires constitutional amendment. You know what doesn't? Getting rid of the Reapportionment Act. Expanding the House by a considerable margin will bring back a more fair EC.

Would a home count as unrealized gains? Because I'd be fucked if I got taxed on it more than I already do.

It feels like whoever made this only sees those large suburban sprawls in the South West of the US where it's all flat desert. Or the suburbs built on large tracts of farmland that had trees taken down many years before for crops.

Housing development is expensive when you have to cut down and uproot large tracts of forest. They're not willing to do that unless there is a high rate of return... Such as an apartment building with a hundred tenants.

He's been doing this forever. He's THE flip flopper of all flip flopping.

Thank you. I was in the same boat. Did I want Biden President again? Not really. But there were no alternatives at the time and I thought that Harris wasn't exactly getting the recognition when people wanted to just drop Biden.

I'm glad I'm wrong about staying with Biden. I'm happier that Harris has taken up the mantle. I just hope that it's enough to drive turnout.

Do some reading on why Biden can't get rid of him. It'll make you smarter, I promise.

What's the propaganda?

Not sure how. The Constitution is pretty explicit that States get to determine how they send delegates to the EC.
