Study to make China strong.

And this is why President Xi always has that sly smile.

He knows that a great mass of North Americans 'study to make America weak'.

President Xi is one smooth operator.

Not to be underestimated.

At least part of the app’s runaway popularity can be attributed to directives issued by local governments and universities that require people in China’s expansive party member network to download the app.

Wait until San Francisco gets in on this...

Those who lost all their points had their dogs confiscated and had to take a test on regulations required for pet ownership.

OK by me.

Always concerned about nuts and their off-leash dogs.
My hounds yearn to be free, but we have coyotes and cars and who knows what to chase. I do not want my critters hurt.

We have some rabid lib neighbors, with zero knowledge of a leash. The ‘male’ with a PhD has been unemployed for about ten years, walks in the am.
We go in the evening to avoid them.

They need some serious reeducation.

I read about that when they were first announcing it. I can’t believe that wasn’t part of the Green New Deal.
