How aggressive of China to decide not to hand out pork to American farmers given the same country just had ridiculous tariffs targeting the Chinese economy and their global trading partners.

I believe you call this fucking around and finding out. But as you said I’m sure it’s nothing and nothing ever happens. Stop thinking about the American farmer’s ability to put food on the table citizen.
I'm bored so I'll take the bait. Why the fuck would the US have to import pork?
 
used to be tradition in my part of the country to buy a hog in January and let it fatten up all year on your property and then slaughter it for Christmas day dinner. the fact that we import any at all is disgusting. IF you have any land at all you can support a hog.
I believe it is China buying US pork, not the other way around.

I don't care, international trade exists in anarchy. JFC hogs are an environmental disaster of an invasive species, you could replace imports with domestic commercial hunting, if the FDA got around to approving it before the meat rots.

There were two reasons I backed trade normalization with China in the 90's:
1) The argument trade connections would create cultural ties, seemed persuasive coming out of the CCCP era.
2) Trade connections were also supposed to soften China's official interactions, with both the US and our Asian economic partners.

Now I didn't believe it, but some people actually had the balls to argue: 'Hey, by 2010 we'll unify Korea with the help of out Chinese friends!'

That was before we figured out Asia never got the 'golden rule' cultural meme, and will shamelessly steal anything they want.
 
So you don’t pay $50 for ribs? Why the fuck do you think buying American is cheap? Do I need to explain supply and demand to you?
Where are you buying your ribs? The best barbecue restaurant in my city doesn't charge that much for a slab and the meat is perfectly cooked and seasoned and literally falls off the bone it's so tender.

The butcher price has gone from $15 to $25 in the last month and an half and restaurants in my hellhole hovel of the Midwest now double that on the bill. It’s a rare exception I don’t see a change in price but that’s not to say I don’t still see some local stores trying to keep original prices in order. A full rack of baby back now costs somewhere between $35 to $50 if you don’t cook it yourself.
 
It will be Newsom or Whitmer. Newsom is failing at his rehabilitation and French Laundry will still slaughter him, especially as people get more and more angry about the Covid lies.
Whitmer was also draconian, but has the woman card and is generally liked by democrats
Whitmer is Harris levels of awkward.
Oh good, that didn't take long. The schadenfreude here is fucking delicious. The moment they announced that faggot was actually being made a part of the mainstream party leadership, I knew they'd just put a bullet through another toe.
Whodathunk making a 25 year old co-chair of a major political party was a bad move?
 
Shitmer becoming president would be the worst outcome for America. Not only has she taken some very draconian measures, but she's also completely incompetent. She campaigned pretty much solely on fixing Michigan's roads and she can't even accomplish that after 6+ years. Not to mention the bungled fake kidnapping scandal.
Lets not forget when she banned buying seeds for reasons.

Also, Leaf Kiwis, stumbled on this Twitter Thread from noted Yookay wildlife expert Drukpa Kunley, do the urban retards your government imported actually sound like this? Do you need your American cousins to warcrime Toronto?
 
They're trying to burn through the budget of DOJ and their available paralegals and lawyers
>be a democracy of 350 million people who are told from birth that their country was founded by people, mostly from law backgrounds, who hated the government with a burning passion

>never budget for thousands of frivolous bullshit lawsuits and can be put to heel by a small group of under 100 lawyers.
US "White-Latinos" are on average 75% White.
did you know George Lopez took a DNA test and found out he's literally 75% white? And his daughter is apparently even more white at 88%? But honestly looking at these pics, would anyone actually call either of them "mostly white"? Like seriously, this is why all those DNA percentage conversations are so stupid. The way people actually see you and treat you is what matters in real life, not some random numbers from 23andMe.

There are Americans who think Salma Hayek and Antonio Banderas are not White. Salma Hayek is ½Spaniard ½Lebanese, and Antonio Banderas is a Spaniard born in Spain.
if you're from the Mediterranean you're literally not white, like Spain, Greece, and Italy are basically developing countries. I mean, there's obviously a reason they all ended up with those fascist governments
 
States are literally not allowed to do this.
In which way? States are not allowed to require proof of citizenship for Federal Elections? And at the same time, the Federal Government isn't allowed to mandate proof of citizenship because... that's the states' responsibility...

So it's a catch 22 meant to say "you just can't require proof of citizenship"?

Yep. Sort of like how you don't have standing to sue over procedural violations before, during, or after an election for different reasons. Heads I win, tails you lose. The left depends existentially on election fraud and illegal migration; they're not going to just give us permission to fix those things.

That, and they are not allowed to make rules regarding federal elections. See, Arizona v. Inter Tribal Council of Az., Inc., 570 U.S. 1, 8, 133 S.Ct. 2247, 186 L.Ed.2d 239 (2013), Moore v. Harper, 600 U.S (2023), REPUBLICAN NAT. COMM., V. MI FAMILIA VOTA, (ORDER LIST: 603 U.S.) (2024) (finding as a injunctive matter that Arizona could enforce its "proof of citizenship" laws for local elections, but could not for federal)
