when they talk about withholding federal funding for whatever reason i always wonder, aren't those funds already in place holding down other various spheres of influence?

so if you withhold funds then they have less reason to do what you want

I know Medicaid and school funding(including meal programs) are federal block grants that require compliance.

The wrestling man's ladywife is gonna be secretary of education though. Should be fun.

I wonder how much of their brilliance is attributed diredctly to Xi. Like, if when he kicks the bucket the whole fucking thing is gonna come collapsing like a house of cards?

Or will they be able to maintain it for more than 1 generation, like NK has, which.. let's all give them a round of applause.

I can't think of any other cult's that have survived the deaths of THREE leaders.

Dengism preceded Xi Jingping Thought as the major pathos.

There were a few dudes in between that have already been forgotten by history.

Whatever they're doing within the CCP to pick leaders, they seem to do a decent job. It's inscrutable like when they pick a pope. I'm sure as the generations go by with one party rule however they're going to end up with a bunch of dipshits

New Ai2 Tulu3 just released said to out perform Deepseek and Open AI

and

Due to even more instability - Japan Made Tough Decison Against US: Japan ditching more US Treasury

and

Orange man overreact hurting all Americans by threatening to increase Tariffs (tax on Americans) everyday when countries refuse to back down.

'Orange Man' used fentanyl to justify tariffs, but the crisis was already easing
