      With Tulsi Gabbard as the US Director of National Intelligence, how much do we want to leak to Russia?

            I am joking but that’s how Tulsi sees the situation.

            Ukraine is about to be fucked over so hard that it will be a chapter in history books what happens when a smaller nation tries to stand tall and gets ganged up on by nuclear powers.

      Australia and New Zealand, who Russia doesn’t really care about.

      This president has been such a disgrace to the intelligence community.

          Australia and NZ are in a difficult position. From the day European’s arrived they have been aligned to the world’s dominant sea power. Both are remote and reliant on sea trade. I don’t know that we have the mental flexibility to change. More likely we will negotiate with the Whitehouse to get the best we can out of things under the circumstances. I wouldn’t expect major political parties here to publicly oppose Trump except on long established foreign policy like support of Ukraine. I wouldn’t mistake lack of protest with acceptance.

          The countries with the most self-interest in securing our sea trade are China, Japan and South Korea for their food, energy and raw materials, not the USA. US is a net exporter to us but a lot of it is financial, services/IP and I think their commitment is somewhat less than it was post WW2.

      New plan: we all kick out the US and we’ll invite most of the rest of the friendly countries name it the one-hundred thirty-eyes and we’ll have blackjack and hookers.
