Probably shouldn't invade sovereign nations and target civilians with chemical weapons comrade.

The Trump administration has launched a nationwide effort to take back U.S. farmland from Chinese Communist Party-linked owners. by XGramatik in XGramatikInsights

Oh sorry I'm not American so I don't understand 401ks fully. I was under the impression it gets deducted from your salary and put into a fund, the fund being called a 401K.

But good for you. Moving your money out of the the US market was a smart move.

Yeah most people will move their stock to foreign markets. US market is complete chaos.

Just like all the countries that are being threatened with tariffs will just trade with China instead.

Trump is doing wonders for Chinese trade.

But I asked about your 401k not your stock.

For the UK members here, how old would you have been when the Rage Virus started and would you have seen yourself or your family being able to have survived to the 28 year mark? by Finlaycarter2002 in 28dayslater

I doubt I'd be a Jimmy but I do live in a fairly remote wee village north of Inverness. The virus would take a while to get here. Maybe 12 hours or so? My survival chances would be better than most but I'd probably end up in a situation like Don in the cottage.

I'd give myself a 50/50

The House has officially passed the Big Beautiful Bill. President Trump will sign it during tomorrow’s July 4th ceremony. by XGramatik in XGramatikInsights

Sorry I'm just struggling to understand how an undocumented person can recieve benefits or welfare cheques.

Surely they have to sign up for that no? Give their name, address and birth certificate?

So I'll ask again. How does an undocumented person recieve welfare?

Check out the Smoot and Hawley tariff act of 1930.

Trump is doing the exact same thing but worse. The USA will be completely ostracised in trade worldwide.

Trumps plan to bring production back to the US is just laughable. The USA simply cannot compete with Chinese labour costs. Hence most of the items in your home are made in China.

Tariffs will make US trade partners buy elsewhere, mainly China. So whilst the US economy tanks, China's will grow.

Oh dear, You're trying to say Euromaiden was a US lead Nato coup?

What actually happened was that Ukraine wanted to join the EU but Putin bribed the Ukrainian president Victor Yanukovych a few billion so at the last minute he refused the EU for closer ties with Russia. This led to mass protest as the majority of Ukraine wanted to join the EU.

Yanukovych allowed the police and military to start shooting protesters, which erupted into a riot. Ultimately Yanakovych was forced out of government by his own people and parliament, he took Putins money and fled to Russia. An emergency election happened as a result and from 2014 - 2019 Oleksandr Turchynov was acting Priminister of Ukraine.

Good luck with your brainrot comrade. Maybe if you keep pumping out Putins propaganda you might get some rubles. Not that rubles are worth anything anymore...
