fwiw, the Monroe Doctrine was stated in 1823. It looks like there were 24 states.

@#1 ... Who are you really talking to? ...

Did Mr Musk's post an apology for, or even a comment upon, what his Grok xAI stated?

Or maybe, this result may be his end goal?

No accountability for his xAI?

@#6,7

So it is OK, in your trolling aliases' view, that the United States can randomly kill citizens of other countries?

and, fwiw,

I have been noticing a pattern of trolling aliases in this thread.

But I'll leave it at that for the nonce.

                                          :)

@#173 ... Okay. That's all you got. ...

Nah.

That is what your current trolling has dragged this thread to.

Don't put it on me that its trolling may have been a success in destroying a discussion.

I'm just shining a spotlight on it.

:)

@#5 ... The boats that Pres Trump has been destroying and the people he has been killing ...

Let's play with some numbers ...

@#169 ... Get embarrassed ... ... so post a song. ...

Embarrassed?

Hardly.

Post a song?

Yeah.

I think the lyrics are interesting.

Instead of your current trolling alias posting a comment about what I posted, it seems to go directly to knowing how I feel. As if it has a clue about that aspect.

Perhaps I posted that song to see the reaction it would get?

And perhaps, the clueless reply your current trolling alias posted confirmed an opinion I have?

Perhaps.

Or not.

Do try harder in your current alias' trolling..

@#166 ... No, just healthier. ...

... and your current trolling alias knows that, how?

Or it that assertion just yet another example of the phlegm your current trolling alias posts here?

@#4

Pres Trump's issue with Venezuela has morphed from one of fentanyl to one of cocaine.

OK, questions ...

The boats that Pres Trump has been destroying and the people he has been killing, seem to have little to do with drugs coming into the US. Those boats and their alleged cargo seem to be destined for West Africa and Europe.

That aside, why is Pres Trump now focused upon cocaine shipments into the US?

I mean, didn't he recently pardon a person who was tried and convicted for bringing over 400 tons of cocaine into the US?

Does Pres Trump even have any manner of a anti-drug policy? If so, what is it?

@#2 ... Such as why were they in Venezuela in our way. ...

Why is the fact that Cubans are in Venezuela seem to be an problem for your current trolling alias?

... in our way ...

Now the US seems to have a say of how Cubans behave when they visit other countries?

Wow.

@#164

Oops.

:)

@#163 ... You mean ...

Based upon what I have read in your current trolling alias' posts, I would proffer that it has not a clue of what I mean in the comments I post.

Do try harder.

... The Cuban government said on Sunday that 32 of its citizens were killed during the U.S. raid on Venezuela ...

Pres Trump seems to think such causalities are OK because Cuba may be the next military target.

Pres Trump's imperialistic aims now seem to be coming to the fore, as a feckless GOP Congress just seems to bow to his perceived awesomeness, or maybe afraid of his personal militia and the threats that seem to occur if they disagree.

Here's an interesting view ...

... the "counterproductive and endless cycle of regime change or nation-building" was over" a little over a month before President Donald Trump's military actions in Venezuela. ...

Quelle surprise.

The Trump admin lied on a quite significant issue, yet again.

@#1555 ... That's why Republicans are so engaged on making it harder for the victims of their cruelty, and people who have sympathy for the innocent victims, to vote.

Political Reality. ...

Yup.

Republicans seems to be on a crusade to deny, or make difficult, the abilty to vote of those who tend not to vote for Republicans.

But, I have to ask, how might their apparent denial of health care for workers align with their goal of denying those very voters the ability to vote?

@#149 ... Did you miss that? ...

My guess is that this evening's possible troll farm assignment of the lfthndthrds alias is ... trolling.

Nothing more.

This evening it seems to be intent upon trying to disparage other posters and elicit replies.

I tried, but was not able to have any manner of a rational conversation with it.

But why, the apparent execution of that assigned task?

YMMV.

@#1 ... How awful a human being do you have to be to get exiled ...

Yeah.

And the cited article seems to indicate just how much she knows and understands about Greece.

... Weeks after taking on her post, Ms. Guilfoyle, 56, has become the talk of Athens, followed by paparazzi, featured with smoky eyes on the cover of Vogue Greece and much discussed, at least initially, as the woman jilted by the president's son.

Greece was more used to U.S. ambassadors who were traditional foreign service officers, and some Greeks wondered if the Trump administration was disrespecting them with her appointment. ...

@#136 ... -What is the solution the Republicans are proposing to end the healthcare cost crisis?

Nothing. ...

I agree.

More from the article ...

... He had messages from federal prosecutors, FBI agents and the federal Bureau of Prisons " all letting him know that the new president had just pardoned about 1,500 people who had been convicted for their actions at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. The pardons included rioters who had injured Gonell as he and other officers tried to protect the building.

"They told me that people I testified against were being released from prison," Gonell said. "And to be mindful."

Gonell was one of the officers who defended the central West Front entrance to the Capitol that day as Congress was certifying Democrat Joe Biden's victory and hundreds of Trump's supporters broke into the building, echoing his false claims of a stolen election.

Gonell was dragged into the crowd by his shoulder straps as he tried to fight people off. He almost suffocated.

In court, he testified about injuries to his shoulder and foot that still bother him to this day.

"They have tried to erase what I did" with the pardons and other attempts to play down the violent attack, Gonell said. "I lost my career, my health, and I've been trying to get my life back."

Five years since the siege, Gonell and some of the other police officers who fought off the rioters are still coming to terms with what happened, especially after Trump was decisively elected to a second term last year and granted those pardons.

Their struggle has been compounded by statements from the Republican president and some GOP lawmakers in Congress minimizing the violence that the officers encountered. ...

@#127 ... At the moment it appears their plan is to stop subsidizing health insurance companies who are gouging the living ---- out of me and my tax dollars because of these subsidies. ...

That is an action, but is it a solution?

What is the solution the Republicans are proposing to end the healthcare cost crisis?

@#124 ... These are 2 simple questions

Is the price of healthcare a problem for the American people?

If so, what is the Republican plan to address that problem?

Why are you afraid to answer those simple questions? ...

Worth a repeat.

@#116 ... AOL is calling your MF ass right now. ...

I never was an AOL subscriber.

Though, back in the day of 2400bps dial-up, I had a Telebit[1] modem that gave me 32kbps access to work so that I could work from home.

Yeah, I have worked from home since the late 1970's.

What else yer got?
