I think MBS is more focused on quite ludicrous construction projects like NEOM than foreign adventures at the moment.

Banana country Pakistan is going at it again. Given that they could go bankrupt at any moment, they sure have plenty of time for all these side quests.

Its really China's bad luck to have such a pig teammate. Give me 1 N.Korea over 10 such bananas

LAHORE: Law enforcers and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) workers clashed Tuesday as a heavy contingent of police reached Zaman Park to arrest former prime minister Imran Khan in the Toshakana case — the only case in which his arrest warrants are not suspended.

In light of the development, the PTI chairman asked his workers to keep fighting for the "rule of law", ensure that they continue the struggle no matter what, and come out on the streets.

A team of Islamabad police has been in Lahore since yesterday to comply with the court orders to arrest the PTI chairman — who faces a number of cases in different cities.

The riot police, although observing restraint, are using water canons and firing teargas to disperse the party's workers as they move ahead in their quest to arrest Khan.

She soon figured ways around the block using personal mobile data or a virtual private network (VPN). The block had been introduced after state officials in Maryland banned the video app on government networks, citing national security concerns.

But Americans aged 18-25 are less likely than older adults to be concerned about competition with China and more likely to distrust the US government, says Jordan Marlatt, tech industry analyst at Morning Consult. They also have more positive views of social media.
Less than a third favoured banning Chinese social media apps, Morning Consult's survey found.

Woke culture to the new level of insanity. How about reparation $5 millions to those Chinese railroad workers and racism against Chinese by Chinese Exclusion Act. Don't forget San Francisco is the forefront of anti-Chinese movement during the late 1800s and early 20th century.

Sounds like local officials trying to grift Washington.

Said "5 million $" per person will be used to fund "businesses" and "NGOs" that "help" the black community, that is if such a law ever materialises in the first place.

These beneficiaries can then either just pocket the money wholesale, or offer their services at a discount to the black community, with the federal government footing the full bill, which will be every bit as inflated as possible, so as to fully grift other departments out of millions.

However, this proposal is too simple and too naive. It'll not pass scrutiny. The ones who made it should have dressed it up more, it sounds too much like socialism in its current form.

Proton vpn is free but prob leaks to the CIA. But good enough to get around the great fire fence of america.

I think a state actor can track you if you were a prime mark unless you use a mulltiple of vpn from multiple countries.

You read it wrong. $5 million per black person is 1 of the 100 recommendations that is proposed. The funding business and NGOs is a separate proposal.

Plus the document says $5 million direct payment as a lump sum.

1.1 Provide a one-time, lump sum payment of $5 million to each eligible person.
Rationale: A lump sum payment would compensate the affected population for the decades of harms that they have experienced, and will redress the economic and opportunity losses that Black San Franciscans have endured, collectively, as the result of both intentional decisions and unintended harms perpetuated by City policy.

There is probably tens of billion in cost for the other 99 recommendations.
