I guess Bernie doesn't have a brain.

BERNIE: "If you don't have any borders, you don't have a nation."
"Trump did a better job. I don't like Trump, but we should have a secure border. It ain't that hard to do. Biden didn't do it."

Do you know what the Schengen Agreement is?
No, you do not.

Who does the US have an agreement with, is Bernie wrong?

You can always tell the CULT members, they don't know whats going on in the world.
Don't you know Lefty is trolling you? NO because you have no idea about the news or reality.

That would be "moron's".

Yeah thats why China controls all the processing plants.

What a tool, you need to reject this Cornholio. He's the morons moron.

You're telling me the US gave up mining in foreign countries due to environmental reasons?

Yes, thats what the LINK is trying to tell you, all you need to is read (abundance). But you're too set on your narrative you don't think for yourself.

Its too expensive to build processing plants given environmental laws. Much like the US can't build homes....

Again READ READ READ READ, then comeback and enlighten us with your knowledge, until then its just jelly thrown at the wall.

controlling the mining means controlling the resources

No it doesn't if you can't process it, doesn't matter how much you can mine, much like oil, when a processing plant goes down the price goes up,regardless of the amount of oil you pump. If the US didn't have environmental laws that squeezed processing they wouldn't be in this bind. The US actually SHIPS rare earth minerals to Chinas.

Did you know the US even ships logs to Japan for processing lumber, then ships the finished product back? Why? Environmentalist.

No you didn't because you're TruthHurtsTheKingOfTheIdiots!

The one inherent benefit America had that China could not compete with was aspirational-a reputation for freedom and democracy.

False.

The only way IMO to attain Freedom and Democracy in the world is to colonize. Similar to the way the British did.

Through mass immigration the Western world is on the cusp of collapse because it didn't expand, but thought hegemony was the beez neez.

End is near for the West, the center is moving to Asia. Immigrate to Australia if they will have you.

China invested, America did not

America from all my reading gave it away because they didn't want to be racist. From Nixon, to Clinton, they gave up the goat.

Its got nothing to do with GWoT, that just destroyed your reputation.

Developing nations, like those in Africa went from trading with the US to trading with China over the past 25 years?
Why?

Because the IMF was ------- them over. US was sending Billions to China (thanks for that). Then China, with its chest of USD, gave Africa great terms.

Again read.

Who gave what up?

The US gave up processing and mining for environmental reasons idiot.

As a result China has access and control to resources through out the developing world in places where formerly our investment and promotion of democracy held sway
~ TruthNLies

This isn't factual at all. As I posted, the US gave up control for environmental reasons.

You don't read, perhaps you can't read, but read those books I recommended, catch up to the modern progressive thought.

According to almost (maybe all of them) all of the lefties on this site his record is 100% horrible.

When anyone gives someone 100% positive or negative, they are part of a cult.

I post facts, you post opinions
~ TruthNLies

You can't even read FFS.

China has a dominant position in the rare earth mineral supply chain, controlling roughly 70% of global mining and an even larger share, around 90-92%, of the processing and refining stages.

What the ---- do you think I am takling about. 70% of the mining isn't control... its the processing.

For some reason this pings my BS meter.

My guess is they expressed immoral joy at the assassination of Kirk. Similar to joy expressed here. It's a sickness to be sure, need to see a therapist, yes, fired no.

I don't see the reason for the firing, unless it created a problem in the workplace.

I see your point, especially if you're just in it to win it. Trump wins

Oh please ... Trump has as many loses as he does wins.

Here's some help Truth.

Goatman claimed to be liberal.
#84 | POSTED BY REDIAL

Who cares what people claim, its about the policies they support.

You can't claim Bernie Sanders isn't Liberal, but do you think he supports the First nations taking Canadian private citizens land? Thats not liberal at all, but you do, you and all the Lumpers here do, you're a cult, an oddity on the Internet, not even on blusky do I see such crazy Lumpers.

China has control of all the rare earth minerals because America willingly gave them up
Just another example of short sighted Republican policies
#85 | POSTED BY TRUTHHURTS

China doesn't control the minerals they control the processing.

Americans like truth are idiots, read a book like Abundance, or Why Nothing works,

Why did they give them up Truth? This was due to no-growth anti pollution policies, are those conservatives? Or Liberals?
See what I mean you just can't accept some of the things you've rallied around caused these issues. Again read a book by the leading Liberals, and you'll see just how wrong some of the "progressive" policies broke things. Liberals had good intentions, but perhaps didn't see the long term problems because they thought America could never lose in the 90s, similar to Conservatives in that regard.

It's all part of the ambiance.

I see this accusation alot, just goes to show you how weak the "liberals" here are, cant even defend their beliefs just false accusations.

The fact that I don't believe everything you Lumpers spout, some how means I am not a Liberal, or a PoC. What a sad perspective, again why Democrats will continue to lose, Lumpers here aren't the big tent so much as the lets all get in line or else group.

Look up what Bernie said about Trumps border ... its exactly what I have been saying since I got here about how to create an open border.

If this were my site, this comment would have you removed.

Thats because you don't believe in free speech.

I think it solidly proves that your intent here has been to sew division and discontent as a troll.
I am not trolling, a troll would hang around and make you mad, I am just spitting facts.

You've always been attempting to undermine the US.
I am not undermining it, letting in hordes of unmitigated immigration is undermining it. The US debt which you want more and more of is undermining it.
Iam just pointing it out.

If you're really even Chinese, I think you should be returned there as ashes in a cardboard box.
#20 | POSTED BY WHATSLEFT

Well there's the truth, i had this discussion with a fellow co-worker about the Liberal White man hostility towards legal immigration.
His statement is being proven truthful and correct, Liberal White men just can't compete, with legal immigrants. Liberal White men love the illegal immigration because they know it won't affect them. But when it comes to legal immigrants, they want us in "ashes in a cardboard box".

Have great day you ------- loser.

This just isn't clear to me. Hunters painting scheme was more clear for obvious reasons, yet you defended it.

So how is Trump or anyone related personally benefitting from the ballroom or the 747 for that matter?

Why would he give favors for no reason?

Unlike Hunter who actually received money from anonymous bidders.

Endless war creates monsters.

True, ever since JFK pulled the US into nefarious wars the US has been on the decline.

Now a fiat currency just delays the inevitable.

Only as long as fools like you keep voting for the party that cuts taxes on the rich instead of the party that raises them.

You have no idea how this works? Did you learn anything from the USAID teardown?

Most taxes/and grandkids taxes, go to the rich people (>$400K/yr) sucking up to the government.
Increasing taxes doesn't help anyone, just look at CA more homeless, more crime, more grift and graft.

Wake up.

Snoofy is a riot...

Snoofy will go on and on about how Pelosi isn't in the government to excuse the malfeasance of covering up the debacle.

But oh my god anyone blame Hamas for the ---- storm they just received, and he goes all the way back to 1948 talking about gneocide.

Even worse, bring up GeorgeWashington ... and Snoofy will point out he's a worthless SOB that has slaves ... ergo America is built on fraud and is worthless.

You're riot Snoofy.
