Is putting your military in a strategic position by moving up the heights to the highest point "expanding"? Are they going to place settlers at the top of the mountain? You should feel awful how much land the US acquired from 1789 to when Hawaii became the 50th state. As for Christians in Syria, that isn't something I would argue, but it's a different issue. That's on our government who had the Pentagon supporting one group and the CIA supporting a different faction. That stuff can't be made up.I thought you told me they have no intention of expanding just a month ago and it was just a radical right winger. Now we are moving the goalposts? Let’s see
1. CIA causes chaos in Syria by supporting the very terrorists we supposedly despise.
2. Assad gets overthrown.
3. Israel conveniently comes in to grab the land.
4. Thousands of Christian’s about to be displaced and slaughtered but who cares.
I have never said Oct 7 was a false flag and don’t ever think they would do that to their own people. However , they have conducted false flags in the past(Lavon affair, USS liberty). Some people in the west will never criticize the Israelis and that much is obvious, even to the detriment of their fellow citizens.

It's a positive development. It further mainstreams Trump and the America First ideas he has.Whichever way the political (and financial) winds blow….
Clark's white privilege didn't make her the best basketball player in the WNBA. Her work ethic and determination did that. I am not going to pretend I know the pressure of what she has been through the last year. While Clark's words, if she used those exact words, are a bit disappointing, she's not even 23 yo yet. There are only so many Riley Gaines type of people out there. I'm hopeful the clear rejection of wokeness from this election cycle stops some of the stupid. Where the WNBA is, is where many mens professional sports were in the past. Selling tires at Sears in the off-season isn't a joke. Specifically regarding Reese, she could be making as much money as Clark. She's a downright beautiful young woman. She could do some high level fashion modeling for starters (no, I am not talking about OF), but she needs to grow within herself to have a much broader network to appeal to a much larger community of people.I actually watched a few WNBA games because of Caitlyn Clark. She is getting roasted for trying to suck up to the black players who dominate her league. If you followed her rookie season you saw her repeatedly cheap shotted by black players, with Angel Reese (black) gleefully clapping in approval.
OK, but on the other side, no player in the WNBA makes much money except thru endorsements. The few that do get endorsements are largely white. So she is sending a message in support of all players, but particularly black that the salaries are not fair. This is an issue with the ownership, not so much society and race.
The WNBA has its collective bargaining agreement coming up and salaries probably will go up some but if you don't get endorsements, you still aren't getting rich in the WNBA. It is totally different in the NBA.
I feel like social media is seeking clicks on this one. I just wish she hadn't used the white privilege thing because that is not at all what this is all about. But did she mean it that way or did the "journalist" at Time magazine take some liberties?
At this point I doubt she would call out Time if they did take liberties but she otherwise seems like a normal midwestern woman who is THE BASKETBALL STAR OF THE WNBA. Good luck to her unless she proves a hopeless liberal. JMHO

Women’s BB is awful. CC got people to watch. She was beaten, attacked, and abused by her peers. Now she apologizes for being white and a superior basketball player. They denied her Olympic glory, too. She should have taken the money from the other league and said screw you WNBA.The WNBA has not been around as long as the NFL, NBA or MLB. For instance, how long before the players in the NFL made any real money? These guys were getting their brains beat in and working a part time job in the beginning. So, you want to give them some leeway.
But we live in a time when you have a good product it can be recognized quickly online and grow much more rapidly. The problem is the WNBA is just not a great product. CC came into the league and was able to put some new eyeballs on their product and they still lost like 40 million? Most people don't care and even less will care after her stupid comments.
This is good in my mind so I can stop having to scroll past any information about their failed league. 🍾
Whichever way the political (and financial) winds blow….Looks like the Zuck is serious about working with Trump. He just donated $1 mil for Trump's inaugural fund.
