China and 14 South East Asian countries form Trade Block to replace TPP
In response to: After eight years of talks, China and 14 other nations from Japan to New Zealand to Myanmar on Sunday formally signed one of the world’s largest regional free trade agreements, a pact designed by Beijing partly as a counterweight to American influence in the region.
The pact, the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership, or R.C.E.P., is limited in scope. Still, it carries considerable symbolic heft. The pact covers more of humanity — 2.2 billion people — than any previous regional free trade agreement and could help further cement China’s image as the dominant economic power in its neighborhood.
It also comes after a retreat by the United States from sweeping trade pacts that reshape global relationships. Nearly four years ago, President Trump pulled the United States out of the Trans-Pacific Partnership, or T.P.P., a broader agreement than the R.C.E.P. that was widely seen as a Washington-led response to China’s growing sway in the Asia-Pacific region. Joseph R. Biden, the president-elect, has been noncommittal on whether he would join the T.P.P.’s successor.
Because of the pandemic, the signing of the agreement on Sunday was unusual, with separate ceremonies held in each of the 15 member countries all linked by video. Each country’s trade minister took turns signing a separate copy of the pact while his or her head of state or head of government stood nearby and watched.

RCEP Members - Australia, China, Japan, New Zealand, South Korea, Indonesia, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, Philippines, Vietnam, Brunei, Cambodia, Myanmar (Burma), Laos
Some of the US's largest trading partners are in the new RCEP. This combined with the massive increase in China's trade in 2020 leaves China as the Dominant power in the region. Good thing Trump pulled the USA out of the TPP just because Obama wanted it, huh?
Leaving China free reign to form its own trade block and massively increase its influence was yet another reason China wanted the Trump good times to continue.
got dirt? Swalwell
There was a video that was shared on here by another member. I forget who shared it and what it was titled. But, it was a video about when Trump got elected, he went and visited many leaders of the world and the person claimed that Trump was visiting them to reveal the dirt he had on them.
The video also claimed that at the Timberwolf's (GHWB) funeral, many political figures received an envelope from Trump. Inside, the video host states, were photos of inappropriate deeds being performed by the people who received the envelopes.
It is interesting to me how Trump during his fight in overturning the results of this election now has immense Republican support to his agenda. It is something else how he even has Ted Cruz...after all his accusations about his family and inappropriate remarks about his wife.
I wonder if Eric Swalwell was not on board to his agenda.
Just some thoughts.

Harrison Deal
Extremely curious this one. Harrison Deal, young man of 20 years, and the boyfriend of Governor Brian Kemp of Georgia's daughter, died in a horrific car "accident". I say accident, because - make your mind up - that looks more like an explosion took place to me.
This "accident" happened one day after Governor Kemp FINALLY announced a signature audit would be carried out on absentee ballots in Georgia. This signature audit has not since occured and doesn't look like it will be.
Was this "accident" a warning shot to Governor Kemp? Tread carefully or someone in YOUR family could be next?

The Great Reset. With the Green New Deal, and Cancel Culture, BLM, antifa....
,,,all in good common company. Castro, Mao, Stalin. Other mega human misery-death specialists.
We hear the idea came first from the unctuous, VERY unctuous, Lady Diana torturer, Prince Charles,---now husband of her non- royal dumpiness.
Clueless Royal White Guilt on steroids.
So, ignoring the fact that the poor will always be with us, yet in far fewer numbers worldwide under free markets, the plan is many things, but mostly rests on onesided confiscatory redistribution of hard earned wealth.
Don't take my words for it. Google the plan.
The syndromes are long, and hard, indeed.

Pennsyltucky Federal Appeals Court Justice....
....puts the kibosh on State election result certification. Hate when that happens----2000 all over again.
Placing the matter one step closer to a SCOTUS look see, adjudication, and rulings on just remedies. Hey, I can suggest one.
Turf it all over to the 31 to 19 GOP majority State legislatures---one of 50 votes each one. As a well foreseen Constitutional option, from the founders. Nice, VERY nice.
What could possibly go wrong? Safest election in history.
And when the anarchists hit the streets, skip the tear gas-----full metal jacketed rounds for all. Law men and Militia. All around.

I told you so.
American corruption beats any African nation.
Now you gotta believe that.
Supreme court?
It is farce too.
Complete overhaul is the only remedy.
It is bloody though.

I demand a recount...
In the case of 'You get what you pay for' the Trump Campaign demanded a recount of votes in Milwaukee and the result increased Biden's margin of victory.
Obviously that didn't go as planned.

SCOTUS is not getting involved, by those who know.
SCOTUSblog is a twitter handle of people who have been covering SCOTUS for years in a relatively non Partisan way. Its handle is here
Well today it decided to pour cold water on everyone fever dreams ofSidney Powell Trumps lawyers striding in and shattering the Universe with a few well timed thrusts of evidence. They know SCOTUS, and its not going to happen. They did specify they are talking about Judge Brann's case in Pennsylvania, but the writing is an the wall.
I think, on balance, since these are the guys that cover the whole boring day by day crap of SCOTUS, that they have an idea what they are talking about. Certainly more than a screaming internet "radio show host," who has his hands out for your money.
This, combined with today's firing of Sidney Powell, kind of makes it a bad day to be a Trumpet.

There is no chance SCOTUS will review the suit dismissed by Judge Brann seeking to block Pennsylvania’s certification. The lawyers representing the President are either delusional or intentionally misleading him and his supporters.

Dear @realdonaldtrump
supporters: SCOTUS is not getting involved. We wish it would. What a case! But unfortunately, that is a fever dream of gaslighting, insular, pro-Trump media that collects your attention, energy & money by deceiving you into seeing hope where none exists.

Pop quiz: You think we’re biased? Of the 1000s of smart, conservative @fedsoc
lawyers who — unlike @Sidneypowell1 & @rudygiuliani — have real serious experience, name one who thinks SCOTUS will do anything to bar certifying votes in favor of @joebiden over @realdonaldtrump.
