I think it was a show.

The Japanese media reported that Nancy Pelosi will not visit South Korea and go straight to Taiwan.
It will be the first time in 25 years that such a high level official from USA visit Taiwan and basically it triggered a response from China.

And the Taiwanese Media is reporting now which i was listening to just then. Is there a domestic election coming up ? And Nancy is vying for another term as the Speaker.

These figures are from the internet so presume poetic licence has been used by various sites. I am merely providing context.

Ireland: Population: 4.9Million. Size: 70,000km sq'd. Ukrainian refugees in Ireland: 20,000+ (as of start April)
England: Population: 55Million. Size: 130,000 km sq'd. Ukrainian refugees in England: 12,000+'s (also note: 25,000 visa's granted). i assume this will translate to people and I assume this does not include scotland and wales.
Spain: Population: 47Million. Size: 505,000km dq'd: Ukrainian refugees in Spain: 25,000+ (as of April)
USA: Population: 329 Million. Size: 9,834,000 km sq'd. Ukrainian refugees in USA: 8,758 (as of end March).

Poland is ofc #1 for opening the door to Ukrainian Refugees and I applaud them for their efforts. I live in Ireland and I would like to think we have our doors open. England lawmakers and US lawmakers are not fans of inviting refugees which is why their numbers are always low.

If you have different numbers for these countries just post them.


Actually, Ireland and especially Cork is full of refugees for sure since it was already overwhelmed with Russian speaking people from all the post USSR. There was a Blizzard ent. Russian support situated.

Just read the news, Pelosi got infected with Covid ?


I'm torn between hoping it forces her into retirement and fearing it takes her out and being the final push for her to enter lichhood.

I kinda dont really like her. I understand the divisive politics that have torn America apart. But I always remember that gesture she did by tearing something during Trump's speech. It was vivid and disturbing.

She is a symbol of why we need term limits in Congress. We shouldn't have career politicians, rather people who are called to it who serve and then leave, the Cincinnatus ideal.

I tend to vote for experts and technocrats in elections close to home.

Not sure, but not since I started paying attention on this thread and giving my inputs from my part of the Globe.

Not sure if you are American. But if you are, you guys must be wishing Trump is still the president for 2nd Term. -_-
