Matt!

Time to get scammed again Trumpers!

Make the phone in China, slap a 'Made in USA' sticker on it and sell it at a hefty price. 'Eventually' just means this will be a very limited edition with no real plans to ever manufacture the phone in the USA.

So his birthday parade got overshadowed by the protests, and now it's time for retaliation? Get ready for even bigger protests across the country - just one poor decision from either side could spark full-blown riots.

I'd go to war for this cat.

Any update on fixing the text positioning? My OCD is spiraling out of control.

What is generally not understood in the West because the media has bias is that Russia cultivates good relationships all across the world- just not in the Western world 10% of the world population vs 90%. (Middle East, Africa, Asia etc). They and China position themselves as the alternative to the West.

They probably already shared a lot of advanced technologies with Iran long ago, when the war started Iran was the first to rush in to help. Iran however seems to have a problem not getting their top people assassinated by the Israelis.

Agreed and not forget that they also formed BRICS.

We'll see what happens next. I read that Israel also attacked Yemen, so now they're fighting a multifront war. If somehow Iraq also gets involved then it's gonna be very bad for Israel.

MEXICAN PUPPY PARADE

I wonder how the American people would feel about hosting Kim Jong Un at the White House?

Russia can share nuclear, chemical (particularly thermobarbaric) and missile tech schematics , which they probably already do. Thermobarbaric weapons are extremely potent as demonstrated in the Ukraine. Russia also has vast raw materials, which they can deliver to allied countries. Russia can also offer intelligence information and also their vast combat experience (via advisors) from the War in Ukraine.

Basically if Iran choses to inflict mass civilian deaths (as Israel loves doing to their neighbors) they should be able to do so, unless they are afraid of an even more powerful Israeli response.

From Russia’s perspective, sharing advanced secret technologies especially something as critical as nuclear or missile tech carries risks. Alliances can change, and there’s always the possibility that Iran could later turn against them (if you look at the map it wouldn't take long for Iran missiles to hit Russian soil). So strategically, Russia might be cautious about handing over its most sensitive tech.

The parade is very casual/seems directed to small town MAGA. It resembles a 'suburban America' military parade x 100 that would go through a couple of towns on Veteran's day. The ending is especially weird, with the grandstand forced to watch boring country music with a captive audience of serviceman. Much of the country do not like or listen to country music.

What are you talking about, boring?! Country music is fire and more people should listen to it.

probably formalizing what was already occurring. Russia also has a similar pact with North Korea. What they can do is to share technologies (nuclear, chemical weapons, missile, drone etc that their allies don't have) and also deliver strategic raw materials.

Iran provided significant aid to Russia, mainly thousands upon thousands of Geran drones used to attack Ukrainian energy infrastructure and also the schematics to build Geran factories in Russia, which the Russians already produced. They also provided ammunition supplies.

The way I see it, Russia currently has nothing to offer to Iran. All their resources are tied up in the war in Ukraine. Iran has probably already reached out for aid, but Putin is out of chips.

I wonder what happens to Israel, if Russia holds up the agreement. Lucky for Israel, the pact doesn’t include an explicit mutual defense clause, and given the circumstances, Russia is unlikely to spare any significant resources at the moment.

This.

$50M well spent.

"Dozens of Minnesota Democrats were on a target list written by the gunman who allegedly shot and killed a state representative and shot and wounded a state senator in a targeted act of violence early Saturday, according to law enforcement sources. The Minnesota Democrats on the list included Gov. Tim Walz, U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar, U.S. Sen. Tina Smith and state Attorney General Keith Ellison, according to law enforcement sources familiar with the matter."

What the actual ****.

Only the best people.
