    Even Sorkin knew he was full of it and ran away from his "thoughts" the second Biden stepped down
  • Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba said at a meeting with top Chinese diplomat Wang Yi in Guangzhou that Kiev is preparing for talks with Russia, according to Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Mao Ning. "Ukraine is willing to engage in dialogue and talks with Russia and is making preparations for that," Mao said at a briefing, citing Kuleba. According to the Ukrainian foreign minister, "talks need to be rational, substantive and aimed at achieving a just and lasting peace." Kuleba stated that Ukraine highly appreciated China’s active and meaningful role in facilitating peace and maintaining international order. Kiev highly values Beijing’s opinion and has studied the initiative of China and Brazil aimed at finding a political solution to the conflict, the top Ukrainian diplomat pointed out. He noted that "China is a great country," and added that Ukraine and China were important economic and strategic trade partners. Ukraine’s TSN TV channel, in turn, reported that Kuleba and Wang had discussed ways to peacefully settle the conflict; however, the Ukrainian foreign minister has not yet commented on the outcome of the discussion. "The meeting lasted longer than expected and we did not have time to talk to Kuleba. He is scheduled to hold another series of meetings, and not only in Guangzhou," the TV channel’s reporter accompanying the Ukrainian delegation said on air. According to the journalist, the meeting lasted over three hours. "Apart from bilateral relations, the parties also discussed the peace plan. The Chinese Foreign ministry reiterated that China called for an early ceasefire and a political solution," she pointed out, citing sources in the Ukrainian delegation. Kuleba is on a visit to China on July 23-26 at Wang’s invitation.
  • Lemme breakdown how party nominations work in the U.S., for my learned British journalists. Citizens vote for delegates (usually in "open" primaries, but sometimes just to voters that identify or vote for a specific party), and the DELEGATES nominate the candidate they want for the national election in Nov....delegates are handpicked loyalists for their party, and if a candidate like Biden "releases" his delegates, and they agree on a candidate for nomination (Harris in this case), then...it's done! This crap about not honoring the will of 14M voters is just that, because voters are "voting" for delegates to represent their candidate, but the delegates can change who they vote for once the convention convenes and their candidate has directed them to...unless the convention is made "open" to allow delegates to hash out who their candidate should be. Regardless, the GOP knows this (they use the same basic process), and they are just irritated because they are locked in with their candidate and aren't getting the opponent they oiled their entire propaganda machine to target against...but it's all perfectly legal, its all how party nominations work...conservatives will rail against it, file lawsuits, etc, but they are entirely without merit.
  • listening to the interview on Donbas: "Russia won't stop".. peace only possible if Ukraine is in Nato
  • @ellarson1
    Your take on the chaos in American politics is highly overstated and is certainly not reflective of the community I live in. It almost seems like the reporter is trying to turn a minor controversy into a major conspiracy. While I am sure there are some, no one I know thinks the will of the people is being subverted.
  • Listen to the song about the first woman president called Change is Coming by Enlightened Evolution
