Well, it's a good question. Why wouldn't Trump sue him?

'Mar-a-Lago Face' Is Everywhere — And The Reason It's So Popular Is Kind Of Sinister It's a caricature of femininity, and a must for any woman who wants to climb the ranks in MAGA world. But there are deeper reasons the look is so in demand, experts say.

#Rubio is at the helm of Trump’s aggressive campaigns to #reshape the governments of #Iran, #Venezuela, #Cuba and beyond. Rubio seems to be pursuing an approach that amounts to using #military and #economic power to turn #authoritarian countries into #client states.

Look, I hate guns. I'm Canadian and the avg one of us has never even seen a gun right there in front of us.

That said, every serious leftist needs firearm training and regular practice, especially if you're in the States. And *especially* if you're not whte. None of this will end by asking nicely.

#Preach this often.

Naturalized as a citizen while in Army uniform. Stopped by ICE twice for driving while brown.

Yes, I carry. Have a TX state permit (although it isn't necessary).

Buying a gun is easy; undertaking the training is paramount.

China’s Edge in an Oil Shock: Electric Cars and Renewables

As the price of #oil soars to #$100 a #barrel and countries scramble to limit the fallout of the sudden loss of Middle East #fuel, #China has two significant advantages over its #geopolitical rivals. Many of its new cars run on #electricity. And that electricity is mostly powered by sources at home.

‘We Would Be Entering a Completely Different World’ What happens if oil hits $200 a barrel?

“If the strait remains closed for even a month…sustained higher oil prices could plunge the world into a recession, raise borrowing costs, alter the outcome of ongoing wars, and shift the balance of global-power competition in favor of Russia and China”

10/ All of this was totally foreseeable. Frankly, it’s why previous presidents weren’t so stupid to start a war like this.

Trump has lost control of the war. His best course now is to cut his losses and end it. That’s the only way to prevent an even bigger disaster.

9/ CRISIS FOUR: Trump has no endgame. Iran and its proxies can create chaos indefinitely.

So what’s next? A ground invasion?This would be Armageddon. Thousands of dead Americans.

Declare false victory? Then the new Iranian hardliners in charge just rebuild what we destroyed.
