Members DramatistDreamer Posted July 9, 2017 Members Share Posted July 9, 2017 (edited) Russia certainly doesn't care one way or the other about North Korea other than the usual self-preservation concerns, like every other country that doesn't want to be subject to the whims of the Kim regime. China is different-as I've mentioned in a previous post, China shares a border with North Korea, China is North Korea's biggest trading partner and China is interested in whatever stability prevents a migrant flow across the border into China and they are not about to risk any of that perceived stability for the likes of the U.S. or the Trump administration's non-policy on North Korea. Seems like the GOP and Tea Party (remember them?) have grown silent on a few issues that they were once vehemently vocal about.

Members DramatistDreamer Posted July 10, 2017 Members Share Posted July 10, 2017 Looks like the Feds are stepping up their investigation into the land deal brokered by Jane Sanders. Just yesterday I was wondering why things were so quiet about this.

Members marceline Posted July 10, 2017 Members Share Posted July 10, 2017 "One of the listed donations, for example, was a $1 million gift from Corinne Bove Maietta, a member of a well-known Burlington family. In fact, trustees learned, the $1 million had been intended as a bequest upon her death." Oh that's a no-no. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members marceline Posted July 10, 2017 Members Share Posted July 10, 2017 The truth is it will never be dead unless the GOP is out of power. Repubs are nothing if not focused on the long game. They are still trying to destroy Medicare and Social Security which have been around for decades. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted July 11, 2017 Members Share Posted July 11, 2017 (edited) IA. I heard someone (forget who) on NPR's "Weekend Edition" mention McConnell's threat to the GOP that if they didn't pass this piece of legislation, they would be forced to collaborate with the Democrats. Of course, as this person said, since the Democrats are not about to deliver cutbacks to Medicare and Medicaid OR tax cuts to the rich, I'd say those negotiations, should they occur, will be combative, to say the least. I know it's petty to say this, but...when it comes to looks...Donny Jr. and Eric REALLY got shafted. Edited July 11, 2017 by Khan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
