The Deep State plan is working. Arizona will be the next "Too Big to Fail" project and will need a Federal Bailout.
Just put it on the "Charge Card".

WASHINGTON/TUCSON, Arizona, March 18 (Reuters) - An Arizona migrant shelter that has housed thousands of asylum seekers plans to halt most operations in two weeks when funding from Washington runs out, a problem for towns along the border where officials fear a surge in homelessness and extra costs.
Arizona's Pima County, which borders Mexico, has said that at the end of the month its contracts must stop with Tucson's Casa Alitas shelter and services that transport migrants north from the border cities of Nogales, Douglas and Lukeville.

Pima County Administrator Jan Lesher said the county cannot afford the roughly $1 million per week that previously would have been covered by federal funds.


 
They all want to muzzle the people. Their plan is working.

WASHINGTON (AP) — In a busy term that could set standards for free speech in the digital age, the Supreme Court is taking up a dispute Monday between Republican-led states and the Biden administration over how far the federal government can go to combat controversial social media posts on topics like COVID-19 and election security.

The justices are hearing arguments in a lawsuit filed by Louisiana, Missouri and other parties accusing administration officials of leaning on the social media platforms to unconstitutionally squelch conservative points of view. Lower courts have sided with the states, but the Supreme Court blocked those rulings while it considers the issue.

The high court is in the midst of a term heavy with social media issues. On Friday, the court laid out standards for when public officials can block their social media followers. Less than a month ago, the court heard arguments over Republican-passed laws in Florida and Texas that prohibit large social media companies from taking down posts because of the views they express.


 
30 years ago, I had a brother-in-law who was high up at Merrill Lynch. He had a son starting kindergarten and was hiring a private tutor to teach the child Chinese. Most of us thought he was crazy, but I did make a mental note. The kid is now in demand, making big money and doing well.
My kid is in his third year of Mandarin as a Freshman. He has a touch of dyslexia (like me) and it's far easier for him to recognize pictures than words, so it's kind of the perfect language for dyslexics. His homework may as well be in alien. I do the flash cards with him, and if there wasn't English on the back I wouldn't believe it was real and he could actually read those chicken-scratches. It's pretty cool to go to the Chinese restaurant and he talks to them in their native tongue.

He's going to China for two weeks (all expenses paid by Chi Com sister city .org) this summer. I can't tell you that I'm not a little apprehensive ( https://travel.state.gov/content/tr...s/traveladvisories/china-travel-advisory.html), but he'll be with all native Chinese in one of their own, state-sponsored, propaganda programs. I think that'll be a hell of a lot safter than going on some "tour" with lost Westerners. I am going to be worried the whole two weeks, but I don't want to deprive him of this opportunity.

There are 12 cities bigger than New York in China, and you've probably only heard of three of them (Wuhan only because of covid). The average American doesn't know shit about China (including me).

I also think that later in life this will be a hell of a lot more valuable than a European language, though not as practical as Spanish is for us. It will probably open up some doors, and it can't hurt to have cultural knowledge as well.

Heralded as a "first-of-its-kind" legislative breakthrough when it passed, the first two months of the ordinance's operation have provided a grim real-world Economics 101 lesson. First, the delivery companies were forced to add a $5 fee onto delivery orders in the city to cover the sudden labor cost increase. On cue, news stories started popping up of $26 coffees, $32 sandwiches, and $35 Wingstop orders in which taxes and the new fee comprised nearly 30 percent of the total.

Local news station King 5 reported that Seattle residents started deleting their delivery apps from their phones in response to the spiking exorbitant delivery prices. Uber Eats experienced a 30-percent decline in order volume in the city, while DoorDash reported 30,000 fewer orders within just the first two weeks of the ordinance taking effect.

In turn, this decrease in demand directly impacted the pocketbooks of the delivery drivers themselves. A driver who made $931 in a week this time last year saw his earnings drop by half to $464.81 in a comparative week this year. Another reported consistently making $20 an hour prior to the ordinance, only to see his earnings likewise fall by more than half since its enactment.
 
to be fair....
With Hunter's help, China will have newer nuclear reactors to cut the coal emissions (even though the nuclear tech was stolen; like 99% of Chinese tech)
and.. Hunter was also doing his best to get drugs off the street. He sacrificed his own body, to smoke all the crack he could get his hands on. :rolleyes: :poop:

Saw the same thing when I was over there for Bush’s trip near the end of his second term. I literally drove through a Chinese city on the outskirts of Dar es Salaam in Tanzania going to and from work every day. Same in a lot of other countries all over the third world. They’re exporting their population for a number of reasons…influence, access to resources, and at the core of it: food.

They can’t feed them all, so off they go to establish little Chinese enclaves everywhere, and those grow into full blown societies that gain control of the local region through power, influence and funding.

Can’t imagine they’ve pulled back even a bit since I was there more than 20 years ago now
 


The FBI agents asked Robeson to sign a nondisclosure agreement and proceeded to coach and threaten him to shape his story and ensure that he would never testify before a jury. Their coercion of Robeson undermines the Justice Department’s claim, in court records, that Robeson was a “double agent” whose actions weren’t under the government’s control. The agents also made it clear that they had leverage: They knew Robeson had committed crimes while working for the FBI.

“We know we have power, right?” an FBI agent told Robeson during this meeting. “We know we have leverage. We’re not going to bullshit you.”
