Deep Dive
Why did Vladimir Putin not expand his country under Trump's presidency?
Under Trump, Putin did not gain any new territory, unlike under previous presidents like Bush, Obama, and Biden. This suggests that Trump's approach, whether through diplomacy or other means, prevented Russian expansion.
What specific military action did Trump take that could be considered anti-war?
Trump assassinated Soleimani, which was a targeted military action rather than starting a new war. He also prevented an Israeli-Hamas war through the Abraham Accords, which brought peace to the region.
How did Trump's approach to North Korea differ from Obama's, and what were the results?
Obama considered North Korea a top threat, but Trump managed to de-escalate tensions and avoid war, despite his friendly rhetoric towards Kim Jong-un.
What evidence is there to suggest that COVID-19 originated in a lab in China?
Genetic analysis of the virus indicates it was not naturally occurring and was likely manipulated in a lab. This conclusion is supported by the genes of the virus, which show it was designed to spread more rapidly.
Why was the Hunter Biden laptop story considered disinformation by some, and what impact did this have on the 2020 election?
The Central Intelligence Agency labeled the laptop story as Russian disinformation, which influenced public perception. It is estimated that one in four swing voters would have voted differently if they knew the truth about the laptop.
What are the implications of the 14th Amendment's wording on birthright citizenship for children of illegal immigrants?
The 14th Amendment states that citizenship applies to those 'subject to the jurisdiction thereof.' This means children of illegal immigrants, like those of foreign diplomats, do not automatically gain birthright citizenship.
How does the current legal immigration system select for new immigrants, and what are its flaws?
The current system primarily selects for those willing to lie to the U.S. government, rather than those who will contribute positively to society or assimilate well. This undermines the integrity of the immigration process.
