Politics

Perhaps they're the same folks on this very forum that were very upset by the new wind turbines and solar farms sited right next to their homes.
I’m not opposed to data centers but am definitely opposed to wind and solar farms after seeing what they do to ranches that were previously hunted and after learning about what a joke they are environmentally. Black, not green. I would rather have oil/gas wells on my ranch now that directional drilling puts several wells on just one pad.
 
If the US doesn't need to use Thule today, why does it need more military there? If the US stopped using the facilities, I would call that "pulling out." Hardly an exaggeration. Again, all the US had to do was ask and it would almost certainly have received what the Danes just gave. Instead Trump blows a lot of antagonizing hot air threatening invasion, blah, blah. I was pleasantly surprised when at the height of the "crisis" GOP Representative Ryan Zinke from Montana had the courage to speak up and confirm to media that Congress wasn't going to let that happen. Not surprisingly he shortly afterwards announced he would not run for reelection. He'd had enough of Trump ... and no doubt Trump had enough of Zinke. We all know how the president reacts to anyone he feels is "disloyal." Too bad. I probably would have voted for Zinke.

I’m surprised to hear of your support for Representative Ryan Zinke. An acquaintance of mine.

I’m sure he would appreciate your vote if he needed it. He is not at odds with Trump.
 
That’s just great. If this is correct, the Chinese will analyze the coatings on the exterior part. Thanks Australia! Heads should roll.
Who reported this? Damn drunken whore news reporters. Better kick that network out of the White House. Like keeping it secret would make any difference to national security. The deed is done. Hiding mistakes only ensures they happen again.

He obviously was at odds with Trump on the Greenland thing. I watched what he said to the reporter. He scoffed. "Don't worry. Congress won't allow an invasion of Greenland." Ask him. He won't deny it.
 
He was scoffing because the premise was silly. The U.S. was not on the brink of war with Denmark. As insulting as Trumps comments were. No one thought we were sending troops.

Rep. Zinke as well as most reasonable people knew it’s Trumps (worn out) “Art of the Deal” tactics.

What? It seems the Aussies shipped it back to the USA. No involvement by the WH. Your propensity to conflate different subjects is beyond sensible. Please stop doing it.
 
LOL......Sure thing Mr. Gaslighting D-bag, the Democrats do exactly as you describe.

along with ending seven wars, doesn’t make him evil.
And what "wars" did he end again?...None. The war in the Ukraine is still raging on, and he started one with Iran. And yet Donny's still confused as to why no Peace Prize. Obama ended GW Bush and the Republican Neo-Cons unnecessary, politically correct, war of choice in Iraq, along with most combat operations in Afghanistan. And Biden finally pulled us out of Bush's forever war in Afghanistan. That's what ending wars actually looks like.
 
What's an Ice Mine?

There’s a reason I’ve you on Ignore since the first day you posted!

You do not hunt and I’m not sure you are anything but Chinese AI super BOT. Go crawl back into your rice paddy.
 
Trump accomplished nothing except making you think he accomplished something.
That's what makes him such a good politician. He makes his supporters think he's doing great things, while doing nothing. Politics is about perception. And they perceive he's doing great things. On the plus side for us, and most Americans, he's not actually getting anything meaningful done. Create a crisis and then solve it, the old Potomac two step revived.

His war with Iran is going so poorly that he's ready to start discussing those Epstein files again. For which he started the war in the first place to hide from. That, plus inflation, and the affordability crisis that's made worse by his Tariffs and war...he needed to invent a win. But we should be happy that Donny's distracting himself with this new faux agreement, or his ballroom, or his statues, or his reflecting pool, or whatever his next vanity project is. Every moment that he spends on his vanity projects are moments that he can't spend trying to break something else.

The point was that NIMBYs know no political allegiance, they come in all shapes and sizes. And also that you can't be bothered by data center NIMBYs when one is a NIMBY themselves, but for renewable energy installations.
 
Which begs the question, "why did it fall in WWI?"
I’m not sure whether I should answer a question with such an obvious answer….maybe I’m missing your point. Population growth slowed significantly during WWI across the globe. Better than 18% of Canadian men (~600,000) were in the Armed Forces. That’s a significant percentage of potential fathers no longer around. Combined with a KIA total of 66,000……that’s a bunch more not contributing to the birth rate permanently. Oh, and about 50,000 Canadians died of influenza during the same period of history.

The US experienced the same.
