Trump to slash funding to the UN. Congrats China, you're gonna be the new world's superpower

 

[sundoobie]

Trump needs to back off with this hiring freeze of federal employees. He's going to make a lot of enemies in his backyard if he keeps this up. Local Republicans in NoVa are already breaking with him on this one.

Trump's coalition already crumbling considering he won with agricultural Red states including Iowa, Nebraska, Ohio and Indiana. TPP would have made a ton of money for these States for their exports, so expect a whole lot of complaining from these rural farmers to their Republican State officials.

Later in the day, Ricketts issued a statement urging Trump to "take swift action in the first 100 days of his administration to substantially expand markets for ag exports."

"TPP would have helped grow Nebraska," the governor said.

"The trade deal would have expanded markets for Nebraska's commodities, increasing our state's ag cash receipts by a projected $378 million a year," Ricketts noted.

It's called kettling.

Basically if you're caught the middle of a riot they can arrest you. Like if you're walking home from the grocery store they can grab you.

Negative. I want to go into the private sector. Government Relations for the MPAA. Government job is like a plan D. But this is definitely going to affect my area. The federal government is our literal life blood.

I've stated many a time that this area is recession proof due to the federal government. It's why the area is so affluent and why everyone wants to come here.

This hiring freeze is a huge detriment to the DMV.

Whelp gotta make sure I fit Mandrian lessons into the budget for SneakerPro Jr

You don't EVER get to say Trump needs to back off anything, you put all your faith behind this clown, you own it till the end....FOH you don't get to have a change of heart, the signs were way to clear.

The United States provides about a quarter of all funding to United Nations peacekeeping operations, of which there are more than a dozen, in Europe, Africa, Latin America, the Middle East and Asia.

http://www.un.org/en/peacekeeping/about/

As of 31 December 2016, our workforce in the field consisted of:

87,604 serving troops and military observers
12,772 police personnel;
5,256 international civilian personnel (31 July 2015);
11,215 local civilian staff (31 July 2015);
1,716 UN Volunteers.
125 countries contributed military and police personnel.

So since the US will drastically cut funding for United Nations Peacekeeping, a world war will clearly be on the horizon considering where these peace keeping missions are located. Maybe a war is exactly what's on the Trump/Republican agenda which will ultimately boost the US economy.

So your liberal bubble is recession proof, why, because of federal government spending in the area.

You're so against your tax dollars going to help others, but you want the money following into your area.

Da Hypocrisy

 

[ksteezy]

And it only took 5 days for one of the Trumpettes to start backpeddling....I'm telling ya, wait till the push for automation kicks in full gear or Trump gets rid of controlled rent, I CANT WAIT.
