China: ‘No point’ in continuing Iran war



The Chinese Foreign Ministry said Friday that it saw “no point” for the U.S. conflict with Iran to continue, as President Trump claimed he reached agreement with Chinese President Xi Jinping on key issues in the war, such as reopening the Strait of Hormuz.
 “There is no point in continuing this conflict which should not have happened in the first place,” a Foreign Ministry spokesperson said

The World Is A Safer Place Without Trump



Trump's performance in China has been a unique, extraordinary and embarrassing combination of weakness, obsequiousness, lack of preparation, amateurism, and incompetence. It just seems normal because we've become desensitized by the constant circus. - Thomas Juneau








Art of the Steal
President Donald Trump is set to drop his $10 billion lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service in exchange for the creation of a fund that will pay up to $1.7 billion to some of his political allies, including people involved with the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, ABC News reported on Thursday night.









Trump is negotiating to settle his lawsuit against his own IRS, and one of the remedies being floated (along with almost 2 billion dollars) is the IRS dropping all audits of Trump, his family, and his businesses. 

Just absolutely staggering corruption. - Angry Staffer









Republican Shenanigans




In a short span of time, both King Charles and President Xi showed the world what a laughingstock Donald Trump is. Republicans are either gluttons for punishment or too dense to notice. Probably both. - Andrea Junker

Beaming Trump Stoked As Xi Jinping Shouts Out MAGA During Live Global Event



...The president embarked on a high-stakes trip to Beijing, China, this week, where he was greeted with a level of pomp and circumstance that visibly impressed him.
At their first official meeting, Trump gushed about his relationship with Xi, telling him, “You and I have known each other now for a long time. In fact, the longest relationship of our two countries that any president and president has had, and that’s, to me, an honor. We’ve had a fantastic relationship.”

Hey

I'm alive although still quite tired.

Sleeping has become my best friend.

Why does everything get harder as I get older?

Maybe one more day to recover, so I will be back on Thursday.

I miss posting!

Hugs to all,

Lisa
