Its his fault that the first vote was even taken. Since then I imagine great sums of cash are being thrown at a no vote for pubs then money will back a simp/est dem or rino. Not all is bad news because you can see who believes what and who is a paid off money whore.
Were all the people refusing to back Scalise money whores? Or do you own a pair of one way lenses.

This thread is a great example of why our education system is shite.

That is not 100% accurate after Trump's Phase 1. Individual provinces may limit investment but they can also allow full ownership without partners. Limiting investment is foolish. If the Chinese want to buy land in the US let them. The country was terrified of the Japanese buying up stuff in the eighties and look how that turned out. It is foolish to deny American asset owners buyers of their assets. If the Chinese take a portion of their dollar reserves and buy a US company that is fine with me. We are then taxing the income of that company and they are paying us. The fear of foreign ownership is irrational.
What part of phase 1 changed that? You can't purchase land in china period, you can only lease it from the government who owns all land.
You can buy property but only 1 house and you have to have lived there for 12 months prior and intend to use it as your primary home.
There's no "investment" properties that you as an American can purchase in china.

Doesn't appear to be a free speech issue, looks more like common sense with regards to not posting illegal things. Honestly we could use a little bit of this in the US since a lot of those flash mob thefts are coordinated on Social Media.
It also adds GDPR privacy laws, which would also be nice to have here in the US.
The only "controversial" thing I see is it restricts the ability to target advertisements, but I'm not seeing that as a deal breaker or first amendment issue (not that it would matter since this is Europe).

online platforms must implement ways to prevent and remove posts containing illegal goods, services, or content while simultaneously giving users the means to report this type of content.
DSA bans targeted advertising based on a person’s sexual orientation, religion, ethnicity, or political beliefs and puts restrictions on targeting ads to children. It also requires online platforms to provide more transparency on how their algorithms work.
he DSA carves out additional rules for what it considers “very large online platforms,” forcing them to give users the right to opt out of recommendation systems and profiling, share key data with researchers and authorities, cooperate with crisis response requirements, and perform external and independent auditing.

Someone needs to invite Trump to the House floor to give a speech. Then he needs to bring it up at a few rallies. Then he needs to start calling out whomever hasn't gotten on board so primary threats can be made. Methinks that can get everyone in line pretty quickly.
This is laughably stupid. Purple district Republicans don't want a Trump endorsement, they actually lose voters with it.
And primarying them is even dumber as we saw during the 2022 elections.
Now if your goal is to give control to the dems, this is an effective pathway. MAGA voters have enough power to tip a lot of primaries and then lose the subsequent general.

If this board is to be believed, COVID was released by the uniparty to bring down Trump which resulted in the US spending trillions of dollars causing an inflationary spike and rate hikes.
So by this logic I need to blame Trump for the current state of the economy and my 5 dollar eggs. I mean that's how it works right?

US citizens can't buy land in China, nor can US companies (they must partner with a Chinese company that has a 51% stake). Given that we should impose the same restrictions on any land purchases.

Yes, like it's difficult to figure it out if Trump wrote something.

Last I heard he can only lose 3 votes, so sounds like he's fricked already.

I hope you are right. I think this is an unnecessary risk. Ukraine should just admit the territory is lost and request peace talks. Our rulers should be encouraging peace talks and not escalation.
Why should we reward naked acts of aggression? History has shown that doing so simply encourages them to do it again.
Better to nip this shite in the bud now when we don't need to pony up American lives to stop it.

No substantial change, I'm sure the only requirement is they don't use it on Russian proper. Berdiansk is in Ukraine.
