Biden got that deer in the headlights look down pat now.

Probably thinking in the photo who is this person talking? Okay Joe. You ready buddy, we are going to take the picture now. say. Ice cream! Everyone now! Ice cream (snap).

Gosh, I can not wait to hear the news he has dropped out.

U2's keep flying, Poop and battery balloons have been chill for a while. Dear leader got a new fake Rolls Royce from his pal Vlad. Exercises are scheduled. About what now? Hmmm 37 days since Rocket man let one off the leash. Pretty normal and calm these days with the Hermit kingdom. Seoul Water Bomb was amazing!

What's to discuss? What more can be achieved? Oh yes, Kishida's secret agenda. Nukes in Japan. What a money saver that would be. Reminding the Hermit Kingdom. Japan is a nuclear armed country. Maybe one day.

These are Japan made Tele's? Squire model? If I am going to fork 200.000. I want a US model. Yes, the art works cool but.

So is this. https://www.americanmusical.com/fender-player-telecaster-hh-with-pau-ferro-fingerboard/p/FEN-0145233-573

Seafoam green.

PORTSMOUTH, Va. Virginia Sen. Mark Warner is organizing a group of Democratic lawmakers to call on President Biden to leave the presidential race, according to multiple reports.

Biden last stand to stay in did not resonate.

Pete Buttigieg vs. Will Hurd. @ Peter Neil. Yes the possibilities of a political face off for the office of POTUS. Better choices. I agree with your assessment. Pete is a smart guy indeed and respected.

Yes, rightly so to blame those around Biden. I could not believe what I saw when Jill said. You answered every question...Knew every....well do not need to go there. How foolish America looked.

Mr. Biden can make all the excuses he wants to make.

I know what I saw and heard with my own eyes. I watched the debate two times. Once focused on him and then once focused on the my parties nominee. Dislike both options for the office of President to the United States. And I know I am not alone. But we got the candidates we got.

Taking politics out of the equation for a second. As a human being.

Joe, you had a good long run. Time to stop . And no shame in it either. None what so ever.

Go enjoy the golden years you have left with the grandkids and your children. You're wife.

You gave us decades of service. Yes, I am a right to middle Republican- Pro bipartisan. And as such and as an American. You're longevity. The so many years of service to our country. Every American should be proud of that. Respect that.

You have been a major pillar in our government for decades. Thank you sir. Seriously Thank you.

However, politics back on the table. If you stay in the race. You will most definitely see Trump back in office.

You will hand the victory to Trump if Americans had to vote today. Its no secret. I am not Maga. I despise Trumps inciting riots on the Capital. He should be in Jail for it. Trump and Biden should both bow out.

How about that? Blindly pick two qualified fresh new candidates. One debate between the both and put this era of radical politics behind us. And allow the American people to decide.

Sorry JT. Delete the previous hit the send button to soon.

Donald Trump and MAGA want to punish both sides. Do not think for a moment what the Donald is saying is true. That he can end the war as Presidential elect.-Lies all of it. Fantasy, Make Believe. Fairy dust. La La land.

Ukraine and Russia are fighting till the death. Till one is left standing. It is the modern day European war. And eventually. If not careful, we will all be dragged in full force. No matter whose in office in the White house. Lets some of those NATO approvals start flying! Trump has bit off way way more than he can chew with that bold promise.

Want to hear something familiar?

Following Adolf Hitler's rise to power, Lebensraum became an ideological principle of Nazism and provided justification for the German territorial expansion into Central and Eastern Europe. The Nazi policy on the main plan was based on its tenets. And expanded living space for Germans. This now called called Annexation.

This is what runs through Putin's veins and his life's mission. Restoration of the USSR. Plain and simple and clear. Crystal clear.

Is Putin evil? Was Hitler evil for wanting to bring Austria back into Germany? Which he did by the way without firing a single bullet. All you need to do is look in to the past and see history repeating itself.

On the current path. The current situation. We Americans continue to squabble divide argue and be petty, While our adversaries continue to grow in power and strength.

Go remove it. Add insult to injury. Send it back to Chinas door step.

They are not monitoring Whales that's for sure.

Keep on messing around China, see what comes. Do not put too much stock and emphasis on Japan and its citizens patience. All things must come to end. Once Japan goes aggressive. China ought to know. It takes a monumental effort for the Japanese to pull and scale back.

They have allot of pinned up frustration towards you. Like down to the last man and bullet type.

I have always believed he had a hand in Biggie Smalls murder.

Wait till the Federal trial hits and the juicy details come out.

He can share a cell with R-Kelly. Why? because he is a sexual predator on pink.

The Feds-Never run out of money. They are like a machine.

Angelo do you know the Feds. They have parabolic microphone that can hear a snake hiss and fart in Egypt.

-John Gotti. 1982

When will these moguls learn?

Sooner or later, after living in Japan for a long length of time. Your going to run into a jerk Jcop.

I was fishing in my home. ( private property). On our home pier no less. Which is so sweet. I love that pier. Has Jetski lifts with two brand new Sea-doo's at the time, and in dry docks with a Gazebo in the center of the pier with a gas BBQ grill My place is in Wakamatsu Yahata Nishi-ku. Anyways, I am cutting up some bate no less. Just some frozen Squid. And a Jcop on his moped Cub sees me. The length of my knife or a refection from the sun caught his eye. Walks right on to the property. And says your knife! Abunai! I must measure, measure knife now.

Screaming at me at the top of his lungs this guy. Young guy, definitely rook.

The Jcop had to measured my American fillet knife 13 inches by the way, that is out side the CM length with in the law I guess. I was done. He begins to berate me and call for back up. And I had to pack up my gear bring it all into the house. Him following right behind me the whole way. Then right into cuffs. Everyone was at school and or work, wife and kids, wife's parents. I was booked at Orio Koban.

I was interviewed over 11 hours. I was finally allowed and given a phone call. 11 Hours!

They just kept pounding me. How was this knife allowed in to Japan through the postal system? Over and over again the same question. They did not believe me. I explained it to them how many times? I bought the knife off Amazon with a ton of other fishing gear in a tackle box set. It was a real fiasco. It must slipped through the postal system without getting flagged. I did not know about the sword acts law.

Finally, my wife had to leave work. Gets down there to the Koban. Does all this gami gami with chief or honcho Jcop Boss. After 11 hours and my day off ruined. I was set free and off with a warning and some document I was made to sign. My wife had to go back to the house for our inkans, hers and mine which really ticked her off the most. And they kept my knife too. Was not getting that back. Nice Buck fillet.

But these Jcops were jerks. Very abusive. I felt like a criminal. I just like to fish.

Its an experience I will never forget. I continue to fish there to this day.

Behavior like this affirms the overall necessity of Moscow launching a strategic counter offensive in self defense against aggressive bloc expansionism in Feb of 2022.

Ah, the pro Russian supporter speaks.

For Motherland!", "For Stalin!" "Ura!- is it?

Bring it on!

Your Army is already near decimated. Your Navy is aging and lost many ships to homemade Sea drones built by Ukrainian widowed Moms at home. With one baby in one arm and tools to build said drones in the other.

Ukraine and it people out on the front line strong and proud. Power to them.

The world and Ukraine attempt to preserve itself self its people and lands to stave off Putin sick dream to rebuild the new-USSR through forced invasion on sovereign Nation.

Sweden, Poland, Finland, Be aware. As I am sure you are. When you hear Russian war cries Ura! Ura! coming from the distance , You will be next in line on the annexation list in Putin's back pocket.

Again weak leadership at play here. If something is not done about Chinas invasive expansion on every single level with every single opportunity on the board as a viable option. China will become so strong. So dominate. China will be the one supreme Superpower friendly to Russia, Iran, North Korea, and host of other countries. Balance must be achieved.

So ... there's a fundamental alignment there," he said. "But I think I need to be really clear: My shorthand for this is not Japan as being invited into AUKUS. AUKUS is reaching out to Japan, to find some collaboration that we can do out there." This man makes me irate.

Paul Myer. What gives you the right to determine this for Japan?

WEAK LEADERSHIP! NO RISK NO REWARD!

Exactly @Isabelle. and push back and preparation will not be pleasant. Its going to allot.

You best believe, that if the weak leadership continues in the Whitehouse long term. These targeted issues will continue.

We talk about China invading Taiwan. We talk about China encroaching on Japan and the so called disputed islands. And what we can clearly see what China is doing in the West Sea of the Philippines.

As China continues its provocative behavior. The region and its people feel that small stone in the shoe. And another and another. Building to from annoying to searing pain.

Just look at the Philippines.

Beijing's assertion, through its “nine-dash-line” – lately expanded to 10-dashes – that it owns nearly all of the South China Sea. Its expansive maritime claim has led China to encroach on waters over which the Philippines also claims sovereignty. China continues to build its Navy and formative one at that. Chinas population and economy continues to grow and at times boom. China requires more recourses more food. More energy needs. More of everything. As the Chinese people continue to put more pressure on the Chinese leadership. These issues are not that complicated. Not hard to understand. All you need to do is look at Philippines. China's first practice run at its long plan. To govern and to take over everything in Asia.

This is real possibility in 20 to 30 years from now.

The time has come to push back and push back hard.

On Joe Biden. Lets take politics out of it for a second.

He must for the good of the country and his own health. Step down. This can no longer be denied.

I just felt sorry for him.

Though Trump seemed somewhat poised and behaved. I think of myself as a somewhat of a decent Republican. Trump is not fit as well to be POTUS again. He just isn't. He sat right up there and lied about the riots.

High crimes. Capital Hill. He incited it. He should be in jail for it. Period. We all know it.

I know that upsets other Republicans. But I am not on the MAGA train movement thing.

I think America is in decline. But it will not be one single movement that makes America pick itself up and realize what have we allowed to happen to her. It will be the American people standing united. United people!

But at the same time, Trump seems right on the border crises. Were those facts right? 11 to 13 million crossings?

That is insanity. That is a hug problem. And what machines was Biden talking about that can detect Fentanyl?

If this is the choices we have. I am sitting this one out. No Vote.

1,500 per hour.

Costco shift is 8 hours. So, Lets do some quick math.

That is a monthly salary of 240.000 yen per month. I know you can work overtime in Costco.

Single men and woman get taxed to death in Japan you might take home 180.000. Then your heath insurance.

Okay now were at what 150.000. Living tax yearly. Yeah I had enough of that after 25 years there. This is the issue with Japan. If you can not speak read and write N1 level Japanese. The choices are pretty lame.

Teach English 250.000 yen and taxed to death.

Work in Factory and kill yourself for maybe 310.000 with over time. Again taxed to death.

Work at Costco, where that could be fun maybe culturally. They all get to eat together.

They seem to be happy when I walk by the room where they eat to use the bathroom. Always laughing, joking.

Japanese nationals get paid huge sums of money. Salary men. With huge bonuses. Twice or even three times a year.

Work at convivence store forgot that one.

Japan just not set up for fair working wages. If you want to make money in Japan. Learn Japanese. Really learn it like a Japanese. Then go back to Japanese college and ger a masters or PHD in something. Or mayy a rich spouse. Good luck with that.

Okay, here is the issue I have with this. This story should not have ever hit the media. Its a great find.

But, it should have been kept contained.

China I am sure is salivating like St Bernard in the August heat at this. Scouring tons of maritime historical scripts all the way back to the Qin dynasty to prove some claim.

This should have been kept a National secret for the time being. Until the mining station was built.

Really dumb. Cool discovery. Good for Japan. But would have it mattered if we knew today or year from?

Duterte invited the Chinese in, In the same breath called Obama a S.O.W.

That was hysterical and historical at the same time by the way... Classic Mindanowian attitude.

Link is below for a good laugh....

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZXdPa4jgupw

Bongbong loves the USA, but has a pollical alliance with Duterte. What a conundrum that is.

Look, the Philippine government and leadership needs to pick a side. And I really think they are about there in doing that.

As the fish supplies become exhausted and all seafoods being offshored to China, as well other precious recourses. Add to it the country not being fairly compensated. Bamboozled really.

The leadership in PI can only blame itself. The USA stance is.

What did Dr. Dre say?

Better to do business with me, than against me.

Corruption at its finest. That is P.I. and always has been.

Nissan made the right decision and sees a bleak future as China is exceeding in the EV market.

The Beijing auto show showed some amazing EV vehicles.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QSzEVLN4dRQ

Can not blame them. But Hydrogen car research has made massive breakthroughs. Japan leads in this. Toyota does. I am not sold EV's are the best option for less of a carbon foot print on globe.

If the Philippines ask for assistance from Japan. Japan should rise to the cause. Or any country that can be an asset to setting the disputes. China treats the Philippines terribly. Taking all counties recourses and making Pinya's and Pinoy's to work for pennies in China.

With promises of riches upfront. But once in China. Its a different story! Most cases not every.

Leaving many of them struggling to get home or falling ill. Or mistreated never making it home.

Takes allot to run China and keep everyone fed. They need other countries resources. What' China does in Africa is way way worse on whole different level with Cobalt mining.

Discrimination, plain and simple. Clear as day.

The city warned the hotel of the illegal act verbally on Thursday and via a written document on Friday.

Not enough. This establishment should not be insulated. Should be severely fined and the manager or any persons involved making the (no stay) decision should be immediately terminated.

@GuruMick,

Whoa now......Invasion?

I can understand why NK gets paranoid when US Navy etc. practices an invasion plan of NK.

Be careful of that wording. The only party interested in invasion is China into Taiwan on the table at the moment being considered seriously.

North Korea invaded the South's airspace with drones, poop balloon as of recent. No Chinese airspace will be violated and we never invade North Korea's airspace with fighter jets. U2's yes, at 70,000 feet in the air. Nearly in space.

The Carrier is here for a defensive posture only. Defensive exercising only! Only in event China, Russia, DPRK want to get stupid. Invasion...LOL

5,000 yen......I guess he needed the cash that bad. After living in Japan 27 years. Japanese in the 30 year old range that do this. It must be such a small percentage. Arresting the guy is a bit over the top. Just give him a warning. Most 30 year old Japanese people are honorable. But if he does it again. Well.......

Well well. Going to have good ole fashioned walk down communist memory lane.

The rise of the modern Communist Globalist Elite.

In this corner. Uncle Sam. And in this corner. Denny Tamaki.

I am sorry.

That is bad. This guy is toast. Over. The base will get built. Marines will do what they do. Move with a purpose. And more Japanese will be eating at a brand new Chili's. And buying Yankee Candles. Do not forget to grab a grilled cheese beef burrito from Taco bell be for you hit the main gate. Ji-chan loves Taco Bell.

I know, I know. So bad of me....sarcastic mood.

@Strangerland.

No need to debate. Present your factual belief all you like on Google. Or Wiki or whatever.

Or here is an idea. Join me on front line over here in Korea, Bruh. Can even take you down to the DMZ.

I will have overwhelmed you with so much evidence of very well and alive somewhat functioning Communist North Korea. You can make your own assessment. I give no.........hmms.

But you know and I know. It is not going to happen, Its fantasy.

I have a pretty good idea on your stance politically and on most of the reading material published here on JT.

As I read what you write and find it a great source of humor for myself at times. Not all you write but most of what you write. Or comment on. And please. Never stop.

Look, your spectrum of belief is yours and yours alone. I respect it and remain respectful.

I do not challenge your belief's or others. No need.

But my own beliefs are mine. So, not be rude, you can stay in your lane. I will stay in mine.

Were never going to see eye to eye on this. No ones right. No ones wrong. The area is too wide on this.

I am the exact opposite of everything you believe in. This I know.

And I get real no satisfaction arguing in threads and could care less about + & -'s of other readers who like to vote up or down on stories and comments here on JT. Its just dumb. I seek no approval from others.

Done:

@Strangerland.....

Oh please.

They are authoritarian dictatorships, they don't follow the tenets of communism?

You make me laugh as buy into what media and the world want you to believe.

Okay, yeah, On the surface. Package it anyway you like.

Please do not make me laugh. I am living expert on North Korea. Since my Grand Dad was one of the 33,739 who died on its beaches and one the 4,267 Marines that died.

Kim is Communist to the bone or even worse than to this day!

Both Putin and Kim worship Vladimir Lenin as a God. This is a known fact.

Little history for you.

Officially, the WPK is a communist party guided by Kimilsungism–Kimjongilism, a synthesis of the ideas of Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il. The party is committed to Juche, an ideology attributed to Kim Il Sung which promotes national independence and development through the efforts of the popular masses. Although Juche was originally presented as the Korean interpretation of Marxism–Leninism, the communist party now presents it as a freestanding philosophy. The WPK recognizes the ruling Kim family as the ultimate source of its political thought. But still communists. The fourth party conference, held in 2012, amended the party rules to state that Kimilsungism–Kimjongilism was "the only guiding idea of the party". You can re-package all you like and call it authoritarian dictatorship. We in government call it straight up in your face over the top Communism on steroids.

Putin wants to give North Korean leadership a one off Navy of sorts. That's what this meeting is about.

Tactical Nuclear submarines and new ships that can take the North Korean Hwasong 18- Translation. Its carbon copy of the Russian Topol-M. They are one in the same. If Kim has three tactical Subs with nukes and some new ships.

The balance in the APAC will shift tremendously. That's the help Putin comes with. Japan will have to work on having its own stationary first strike ability. A relationship that spans decades. Once a Communist. Always a Communist. And they run together. Like peas in a pod.

You can not go on the assumption all Ukrainian and Russians have hatred in their hearts or are bad people.

I was looking to type further. But Mr. Goodman said it.

If you were to walk around Moscow and ask 10 random Russians what the view is on this conflict between the two countries. Ordinary Russians would be well aware of the dangers of saying the wrong thing. The elderly still have vivid memories of life under former leaders Joseph Stalin and Leonid Brezhnev, memories that have percolated through to current generations in a variety of ways. Most opposition activists like Lyubov Sobol do not believe that Russians are willing to say what they think to pollsters: “Most often you’re going to get unreliable results with answers that skew pro-government,” Those who support Putin’s regime will answer honestly and openly, while people from the opposition will be afraid to tell the truth. In fear of incarceration or death.

I hope this business finds a way to not close.. Its a little flame of hope, a glimmer that bridges must be built.

Russia and Ukraine's war will go on for years to come. This is war of attrition. Even if Mr. Putin is off the board. This war may continue and be even worse under new leadership. God help the world if Dmitry Medvedev is given absolute power.
