The Nobel Prize and a Testy Phone Call: How the Trump-Modi Relationship Unraveled
President Trump’s repeated claims about having “solved” the India-Pakistan war infuriated Prime Minister Narendra Modi of India. And that was only the beginning.www.nytimes.com
Could be a serious diplomatic blunder all because of his enormous ego. Meanwhile, this is playing out well for Russia and China.

Yeah, the National Guardsmen didn't ask for any of this, so it's pretty stupid to take the angst out toward them.Probably not the smartest move.
1. You don't disrespect the military. Whatever is happening in DC and other cities isn't on them.
2. Id bet the average National Guardsman would really prefer to be home with their families right now. I think the government is doing 28 day deployments to keep from giving them more pay (not sure on this) so there is that as well.
3. That's extremely unprofessional of a federal worker.

At least we can trust Trump to not use it domestically.Im betting this isn't something unique to the Trump administration. The future with AI and deep fakes, its going to get harder to trust what your eyes and ears are telling you
At least we can trust Trump to not use it domestically.
