So (sub)tropical habitats and communities are being destroyed after Beijing's foreign trade minister signals some dictator that China needs a particular (mineral) resource.
As much as I loath the regime in Iran & wish it deposed to the hills of Qum where they belong - Obama reached the 2015 Nuclear agreement with 5+1 other nations. The assumption was then, in 15 years western countries will have enough time to formulate a regime change in Iran.Centaur wrote:with idiots like obama or killary making deals like nafta or iran deal in which Iran was given free billions it shoudnt take a Trump to bin that deals but nay jack or harry should be able to do that . The said deal does not deal with the main issue which is currency manipulation by china and thus ineffective like any oher dumb deals made by obama in order to appeal to his own libtard ego. Good riddance.

As for the "release money to Mullahs in Tehran". When the revolution on 1979 the Mullahs ceased the US embassy in Tehran - US immediately froze $150B which the late Shah of Iran was stashing Iran's oil money here in US. Needless to say, this money was earning good interest income which has been collected by US since 1979. Therefore, we just returned to Iran only the principal - while pocketing tens of Billions of interest from that money.
While I do agree with you on the need to hold china accountable for stealing technology from us - Obama was smart enough to realize you need to use your head. Even a super power needs allies to prevail in today's fast changing geopolitical landscapes - instead go-alone Don Quixote style "stick it to them" as trump does.
As we witness, China of today if far stronger then yesterday. We no longer can push them around around into submission. As we have seen EU & China had made it clear to trump - his tariff on them - will be met with more tariff on US market. Who is crying foul? - our own farmers are paying the price.
What I am trying to convey - the world is not as simple as this poorly informed trump views as well as manners to treat others. trump is nothing more then paper tiger who acts the tough-buff guy. But in reality he is ill suited to command the mighties military force on earth - nor a sophisticated economies of today.

A simpler, and more likely explanation is that the older boy was in some way jealous or angry with his little brother. It sound more like a Cain and Abel scenario to me. The "I wanted to make him fairer" sound like a lame excuse, and a rather dumb one at that.

The Depart of justice is about to
- indict Andrew McCabe, former director of the FBI
and started separate investigations on
- James Comey's leaking to CNN;
- Comey's role in FISA abuse;
- Comey's role in the origins of the Russia witch hunt;
- Comey's evaluation of the Christopher Steele's report;
- irregularities during his testimony on Capitol Hill.
We can all look forward to a slow roast of the Dem's inner circle in 2020.
While every new President reserves the absolute right to chose his cabinet - insults with ad homiem & denigrating the former heads of CIA, DNI, & the FBI is not part of the "game". They will get even with him - best during the elections. How? What is going to prevent them to anonymously release damaging info on him gathered during their tenure at these dreaded institutions.
The bottom line is - no one can go around and antagonize so many powerful people w/o consequences. Soon or later they will strike back at him (I don't mean with violence).
If you think John Brennen (CIA), Jim Clapper (NI) or Comey (FBI) don't have damaging information on trump gathered from their days as heads of these agencies - think again. Comes next fall, surreptitiously they could release very damaging info to NYTime, WashPost, or Politico, thus reduce his chance for reelection.
Maybe the reality will hit trump when he turns off enough people who will realize he is not the shining armor as he presents himself to them & not vote for him comes next November.

Worried about their future dominated by their neighbor China, TPP was formed by 11 countries - including US & excluding China. With 40% of Global GDP, these countries could form a powerful economic bloc - counteracting China's aggressive economic expansion in China Basin..
What did this thoughtless Don Quixote do? - withdraw US from the TPP & fight everyone & just because his predecessor Obama had negotiated it.He is such a smart ass cookie - he (trump) would negotiated a better deal for US. By now we all witnessed his negotiating tactic - bulling others to submit to his will yet accomplish little. So far we have not seen his skills are working for US - only advance his own economic interest not to serve his country.

Come'on you guys. Use your judgment - will you?. As far as I know, in one of the rare occasions, The Grand Jury had voted against indictment. Moreover, As heads of the FBI, he & Comey were privy to trump's own file there - even supervised the investigation into his connections to & nefarious activities in Russia.Takeiteasynow wrote:I don't think Trump has to worry about the endless amount of media frames going his way.
