Yeah, these sacks of shit are pretty tough when piling on one person. If there were a few more men there or the guy had been packing these turds would have been running for their lives. None of them have any future, anyway. They can take those Mexican flags and stick them up their asses. If they like Mexico so much they need to go back. Just a bunch of future prison inmates and welfare mothers.
 
I was finishing up Uni and was curious if there was a way to get teaching credentials abroad while I teach English or something so I made a post on reddit. I got a DM from a big private school in Taiwan that needs a social studies teacher ASAP. A week later I was in Taiwan getting settled in their dorms.

you got hired from fucking reddit
Youtube's sporked all over now.

Actually they have a requirment that all ferries, ro-ros, and other civilian vessels over a certain size to be built using military naval specifications so they can mobilize quickly without violating any naval restriction treaties or causing alarm on the enemy.

I don't fucking get it why people expect taiwan with 1980s fighter jets and 1960s modernized tanks with first gen patriot and harpoon missile batteries (the US by treaty with china can only sell old shit to taiwan) can somehow withstand without massive US help a flood of modern hypersonic and supersonic cruise missiles, drones, EM warfare and stop a invasion on a channel just 110 miles wide.
i'm sure this is going to be top of the line manufacturing too, no tofu dregs, no corruption, and certainly routine maintenance. these ships will be war-ready the second china tells them to slam themselves into american water artillery and for the 5 hours or whatever it takes for taiwan to hold out while america's entire air force mobilizes to obliterate chinkistan.

i guess if you buy into chinese propaganda, it all makes sense.

Schools? Nigga did you not see the brown horde attacking that guy. They were trying to kill him.
It's fucking demographics. The brown freaks and niggers do not see a debate or some sort of peaceful disagreement.
They see one of theirs fighting a White and they spring into violent action.
It isn't political anymore, it's racial tribal warfare.
And this is fucking NEBRASKA. I took a gander at the 'under 18' demographic, 76% are White, while the state as a whole is 86.5% White.

With the news of visas of all types, including H1bs, being down, the following blackpillers who cried that Trump would be the do-nothing, infinite H1b President need to put on the burger suit:

@Potion_Time
It's such a shame that Trump constantly cucks out from putting Americans first. He loves to pretend to put Americans first by claiming he's doing something good only for somebody to come out and admit the president is literally doing nothing and nothing will change for anybody.

Give me my fell for it again award.

@Ughubughughughughughghlug
Trump is enthusiastic about pajeets. Him and his Papist pajeet-fucking vice president.
That's what you get for supporting him: more money and even censorship on Israel's behalf, no Epstein file release, infinite jeets.
He's a human rat.

They need to hold enough for 110 miles, whilst the entire US fleet has to move from the med,atlantic, pacific, towards the taiwanese strait, that takes time.

Taiwan has to survive the chink onslaught with 1950s tanks and 1980s fighter jets for at least a couple of weeks, can they?

240mm gun batteries in range of Shanghai are everywhere. Taiwan controls islands near China. Just like N.Korea has these aimed towards Seoul.
 
I went on a wiki and google spree a bit ago about Taiwan, I looks like a more interesting place than I though, that huge Taipei skyscraper looked pretty cool too. My mom used to be friends with a woman from Taiwan, nice lady. I tried to sell Studs on some Taiwanese liquor, but I think it's too fancy for him.
Taipei 101 is really cool, recommend going to the top and check out the view of the city and the giant multi story dampener they use to stabilize the skyscraper. They got beautiful parks and hiking trails, solid HSR line connecting through the island, fun local customs and festivals (I got to see funeral strippers IRL which was cool). Living here is pretty chill, never had to worry about money, medical care is cheap, even without insurance, getting an apartment is straightforward, lots of good Chinese food. Western food is hit or miss, so I had to get good at cooking for myself. People are polite mostly and keep their heads down and grind away. If my autistic ass can survive here then it is a pretty good country. The real issue I have is face culture and how round about people can be if they have a problem with you, especially in the workplace.

The think is, you can build dual-purpose ships like this, but taking Taiwan would require a logistics build up that China wouldn't be able to hide from satellites and the like. Especially since China uses 5.8mm ammo that no one else on the planet does, so they can't just scrounge without ditching their service weapons. They need their logistics chain. Securing usable ports was huge thing post-Normandy, for instance, turning a beachhead into a logistics hub is not fast, Even for us and no one else on the planet is as good at logistics as the US is.
 
As I understand it, if you don't hold one of the western ports, you'd have to land on the eastern side of the Island and there's there's not that many places suitable for actual amphibious landings
And those landing sites are presighted by every weapon system imaginable, both in the water, immediate viable drop spots, and all the paths out that are still navigable by armor. China being able to pressgang a mass of civilian ferries into dragging out tanks doesn't help as much as you think it would when the landing area is of limited size and would very quickly be full of burning civilian ferries full of artillery shell holes. There's not much you can do to intercept that shell, and there's no way short of nuclear to clear every gun emplacement targeting the beaches during an attack, especially when they know you're coming.

Amphibious landings have gotten so difficult in the modern era because communication is vastly better. The Americans relied heavily on German disorientation during the initial landings to prevent from getting bottled up, and this is when they had half a country worth of landing spots to pick from. China isn't afforded the opportunity to stretch the Taiwan defenses thin, and isn't going to be able to rely on it taking hours or days for anyone to realize how bad the situation is. They'll know shits going down before half the ferries are even loaded, and they'll know the moment the landing forces have committed to the attack as they cross into missile range. The situation's probably worse for air attack, they know paratroopers and airstrikes would be part of attempted decap strikes in an opening, and they've been preparing for it too. China's not going to replicate Allied success with paratroopers in WW2, maximizing that confusion element and slowing the Germans as they try to figure out both how to deal with these sudden inland troops, and losing sight of where the Americans really are as they appear suddenly, everywhere.

Assuming absolutely nobody intervened, and China went full war production and just started hurling hundreds of jets and boats constantly at Taiwan, they'd eventually win by sheer attrition, but not even China can stomach that kind of bloodbath. And all it'd get them is the glassed island at the end, it would be apocalyptic. Taiwan knows this and is hedging on it, they expect America to intervene, either immediately or after the public sees the aftermath of the Chinese navy firing every missile and gun they got directly into a metropolis, hoping to find an air defense or missile site by sheer luck.
 
feel dirty for ever defending Steve Bannon, he should have been left to rot.
Him running over to Epstein after he left Trumps graces is a very nasty revelation. I never much cared for him, but thought he was done dirty by trump at the time. I wonder if he was pushed out because he was found to be friendly with Epstein

Buildup of air forces near Iran is insane rn:

Honestly with Okinawa, mainland Japan, the numerous ships that hold MEUs that all hang out around SEA, China will more than likely throw bodies at Taiwan.

Best case scenario, they somehow win because US didn't intervene.

Worst case scenario, they lose but now don't have to worry about a population they couldn't afford.

Either way, the US would destroy the chip plants if it seems like China is getting too close for comfort.
 
I'll give him the slightest grace period here, he's been mayor for about a month and the current mess he's dealing with is the one that's been left to him by previous democratic administrations. He hasn't had the time to hit bedrock on his own merits yet.
Nah. He took a bad situation and decided to launch a turd directly into the punch bowl. All because he just had to crank up the spending to eleventy-twelve from Day 1. Sean Fitzgerald, the mick spic, explains it much better than I can.

 
they're trying to turn water into liquid, too!

unrelated the Eagle Cam is still tactical and realistic, the young ones have survived some of the coldest temps in decades and rough winds, they're still going strong and now are starting to get some color in.

I've been following this nest since the hatchings were shared on thread. It's heartwarming to see the younger eaglet will likely pull through.
 
An observation...China has been a US and other nations' major intelligence target for decades. At any one time we have several hundred US military students learning Chinese, also been that way for decades. Would say we're paying very close attention to what goes on over there.

Don't pretty much all amphibious landings of tanks result in a tank graveyard that's only use is for infantry cover, on the off chance the tanks make it to the right section of shoreline?

I don't clearly remember Team USA landing in Africa, but I'm pretty certain that was a total shitshow.
