PM Sunak bringing GB into a trade agreement that now has the potential of becoming one of international importance!
What forward-looking leadership by the new Prime Minister of England!
CHERIO!

Now hear this; now hear this: The Biden Administration may make history for the US heretofore not recorded in its entire of history!
Two possible noteworthy:
1. Conviction of a former President of a crime while in office of the Presidency.
2. Capture and prosecution of a President of another country by an international commission for crimes against humanity (in Ukraine).
ALSO:
Plus, working on the country's infrastructure--which had laid in needed repair for decades.
Plus, coping with a pandemic.
Plus, inaugurating programs to manage climate change.
Plus, getting ready for the inauguration of green energy, electric cars in wide-scale use by mid-Century.
Impressive. My opinion.
Who wants to go down in US history from a campaign finance possible violation?
The New York State Attorney General? The New York City Grand Jury? A New York State Judge? Perhaps, even former President, himself. Look, this is major news that put off other government lawyers, judges, etc. in centuries past 2023 to considering the possible crime of a sitting President.
Apparently, some former President is now in jeopardy: already achieved indictment, facing possible conviction on one of those indictments. Oh, you can't forget the baseball bat photo, that may make a good-looking picture in a prison--on a wall, maybe.
Hurry...Who'll be among the first?

It looks to me we've got substandard trade treatises with Central America!
I implore the federal government and I implore international traders here in the States to stand behind the USMCA, I think it's better than simply making a trade agreement with some country, because of the standards that dedicated government people have worked out through USMCA. Please, don't let our vital interests be sacrificed for the sake of a dollar or a bitcoin! Is there anybody who cares about Central America, which is now in dire need of US investment and US involvement as our interests go beyond Mexico. Don't leave it to Mexico to protect our interests--vital interests--expand into Central America.
We're doing ok with Lulu in Brazil. Let's start thinking--Central America together with Mexico. Aren't you listening to the horror stories coming out of Central America from the migrants begging the United States to take democracy and our trade agreement USMCA into the lands right next to us! Canada doesn't have the topography of Central America! Help!

After a year of fighting Ukraine, Russia's power is being slowly drained away!
The Economist March 18th issue, pp. 4 9ff, presents data supporting the conclusion that Russia is doing ok, maintaining itself above water while fighting Ukraine. Helped largely by Turkey and China, it is surviving the harsh economic sanctions imposed by the Western block. Who would have predicted that it would do as well.
Nevertheless, it is losing its youth and its citizenry through the continuance of the war. Importantly, it has been humbled that it must, once a powerful nation, tackle Ukrainian forces--Ukraine--once its satellite.
Russia will have to confront the question of its very posture and status among nations. Especially, will it again rise to the heights it once was during the Cold War with the West? I think even its closest friends and allies must admit, Russia has been tumbled from its position of prominence as leader of the communist nations just after WWII; and importantly, may not have the wherewithal to recapture its lofty prominence.
My opinion.
Military Might surreptitiously forming in Asian waters.
Something like NATO coming into play in the seas of Asia, coalescing the forces of Australia, Great Britain (I'm so glad you're on your own!) and the United States to exert a presence for peace and to facilitate commercial trade among nations.
Let's anticipate just as scintillating a performance that Western troops are demonstrating in the European theater now.
My opinion.
El Salvador's President Bukele is being left to his own devices!
He is ruining the country, in my opinion. It's been bad, but it looks to me it's turned into a nightmare!
We need to develop the Latin American countries. They are in our hemisphere, to be sure. Leaving them to their own devices is a horrible mistake or just as bad, treating them as satellites of Mexico, a country seemingly dedicated to individual greed! We're letting countries on our backdoor become infested with marauders, preying on weaknesses of Americans who lust after avarice. We simply can't let them go their own devilish ways.
It's about time we bear a responsibility for their reckless disregard for the rule of law and of individual rights. But creating a prison that can house a multitude of suspected crooks isn't a way to met out justice only to train crooks to become more ruthless and less humane, less fit to live in society.
How could the United States allow the situation to the southern border become so out-of-control, chaotic and open to brutality?
I've been there when I lived years in El Paso. This is what happens when we lose interest in our neighbors. My opinion.
