弱国无外交 - Zelensky was just so high on his own supply and had his ego blown up by the Western media. He forgot that Ukraine is just a bit-player, not a major actor, on the world stage.

But that's schtick isn't isolated to Ukraine though; the problem afflicts all the U.S. chihuahua vassals like South Korea, the Baltic states, the pag-pag nation of the Philippines, the lost white tribe of Australia

Intel delays Ohio chip plant to next decade, was supposed to start production by 2026​

The company said it won’t complete construction on the first plant until 2030, starting operations that year or the next. The second factory in the up to $100-billion complex will likely be finished in 2031 and start running the following year. The company had initially planned to begin production on the first plant in 2025.

“As we continue to invest across our U.S. sites, it’s important that we align the start of production of our fabs with the needs of our business and broader market demand,” said Naga Chandrasekaran, vice president and head of global operations officer for Intel Foundry Manufacturing, in a release. “This has always been our approach, as it allows us to manage our capital responsibly and adapt to the needs of our customers.”

Intel, long the world’s leading semiconductor maker before losing that distinction in recent years, has been on a downward slide due largely to its position on the sidelines of the artificial intelligence boom. The stock lost more than half its value last year and the company has been reckoning with slowing sales while also trying to move deeper into the capital-intensive business of chip fabrication.

In August, shares suffered their worst one-day drop on the stock market in 50 years after the company announced disappointing quarterly results. Intel also said it would axe 15% of its employees. That’s made the company a potential takeover target as of late, while also leading to the firing of CEO Pat Gelsinger in December.

Intel was a central beneficiary of former President Joe Biden’s CHIPS and Science Act office. The government most recently awarded the company a roughly $8 billion grant in November in an effort to boost semiconductor production on U.S. soil.

Rumor has it that the Russians think that the Republicans must be laying a trap based on how much Trump is willing to give up.

I hope all those Wanwanese and Taiwanese separatists' groups are watching this. It will make them think about to unite the Mainland instead of fighting. ;):) Japan and Korea watching this must be nervous. Philippines President Marco Jr must be convinced that he is just canon fodder for the US regime.

TASS reporter sneaks into Oval Office for heated Trump-Zelensky meeting before he’s booted out by Secret Service​

A reporter for a Russian state media outlet was booted from the White House on Friday after he sneaked inside the Oval Office ahead of a high-stakes meeting between President Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

The reporter for TASS – one of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s top propaganda outlets – was not on the pre-approved pool list but somehow made his way into the Oval Office for the Trump-Zelensky showdown with journalists from Bloomberg, CNN, Reuters, the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times and other outlets.

“TASS was not on the approved list of media for today’s pool,” a White House official said in a statement. “As soon as it came to the attention of press office staff that he was in the Oval, he was escorted out by the Press Secretary. He is not on the approved list for the press conference.”

The White House did not explain how the Russian interloper was able to gain access to the Oval Office.

CNBC identified the reporter as Dmitry Kirsanov, TASS’s Washington, DC, bureau chief.

Kirsanov was apparently approached by a Secret Service agent during Trump’s remarks, who motioned for him to make his way out of the room, according to the outlet.

The intruder was promptly escorted out of the West Wing.

Kirsanov, however, was in the room long enough to snap a photograph of the fiery meeting between Trump and Zelensky, which the propaganda outlet has credited to him.

TASS did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment.

The incident comes the same week White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt upended the tradition of the White House Correspondents’ Association controlling which journalists are assigned for pool duty.

On Tuesday, Leavitt declared that the Trump administration would take charge of deciding which reporters could cover the president most closely, arguing that the move is a shift toward democratizing press access.

Most of them are so damn ugly that the only way they’ll get laid is if Chinese people become dominant and pull the dirty Western sexpat trick. Unfortunately for them, a core tenant of XJP Thought is mutual respect between nations no matter size/national strength. Looks like they’ll stay virgins forever regardless of whether China wins/loses.
