China would take it, in a heartbeat.

So would Russia.

That id didn’t happen or even considered, is proof enough that the idea was just people blowing smoke up their ‘assets’.

—I’ve always thought we should give PR back to Spain—look at the unjust way we got it—

she was shocked when the president raised the suggestion of “divesting” or “selling” Puerto Rico.

Excellent idea. Thing is, no one in his right mind would buy it.
How about just giving them independence and getting rid of them?

China woukd take it?
They are welcome to it.
What use is PR to America?
Apart from draining tens of billions of dollars every year especially after the hurricane?

Why are churches burning and selling Puerto Rico?

Who would buy it after it’s burnt?

It will be a waste of time to subpoena Mr. Mueller. His dementia is going to require hours of questioning and repeating the questions. He has no knowledge of anything because he cannot remember anything except what his aides tell him.

What are we supposed to think about or acquiesce to this week FReepers? Dunno. Let’s tune in to the programming so they can direct us.

Such as it is, the press has become the greatest power within the Western World, more powerful than the legislature, the executive and judiciary. One would like to ask; by whom has it been elected and to whom is it responsible? - Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

Trump likely joking re: the sale of PR (jokes about swapping Greenland for PR were all over the Internet).

The Chinese likely weren’t joking with their generals talking about how they should sink an American ship or two: they have a history of directly stating the nature of their planned aggression before acting out on it.

And the war on churches (two-pronged from the “pandemic” and street rioters) has clearly been picking up speed:

Such a coincidence the Puerto Rico story comes out after Goya CEO supports Trump and radical boycott fails.

They might as long as its debts were dissolved.....they would get a developed country with a generally Spanish speaking populace and a world class radio telescope. Developed ports and airport. Farms and generally a 365 day a year growing season. Spain would take it back in an instant!

Just want to point out that the headline is proof the Oxford comma is necessary.

We should grant all of the “territories” immediate freedom, with a 5-year payout just to help them get on their feet. There is no reason for our country to still own “territories”, and we don’t want them as states.

Yeah, the scum come after dark to burn our churches. They think they are getting away with it, but one day they WILL answer for it, that I can GAR-RUN-TEE YOU!!! Come to our church during the day and see how it turns out that is my offer to them. 90% of the men are armed!! And a good deal of the women, including my little lady.
