Actually, @derryb continually holds Russia up as an example of something to aspire too, and you keep defending him for it, which is weird.

I have never held Russia up as a shining example. But I will now say that it's leader apparently does what he thinks is best for his country and its citizens.

I hope that someday you'll learn the difference of what one thinks is right for his country and what is right for his country.

You laud freedom of speech and laud this "leader". I'm not sure it's possible to be more hypocritical.

It doesn't take a genius to figure out that when a large group of countries decide to eschew buying US debt, that there will be a major impact upon the US bond market, the dollar as a world reserve currency, US inflation and gold prices.

Do yu think those countries just say, "hey, I think we should buy US debt today"?

I think.you ate looking at one tree and calling it a forest. Global trade, finance and monetary exchange is so, so much bigger and interwoven than just "we ain't gonna buy your debt no more".

You must still be under the rock, because you don't even understand what freedom of the press means.

I'll tell you what it doesn't mean. It doesn't mean that every news outlet has their local talking heads reading from the same script. That's not even news - it's just propaganda and many times just lies. Try to get away from the TV, it isn't helping you.

Actually, I agree with derryb on several issues. He can defend himself adequately so I'm not too worried about defending him. What's weird is that you don't hold our politicians accountable for the disaster that they've created for us.

You don't think that we have politically-motivated executions? Who do you think executed Andrew Breitbart? Antonin Scalia? Seth Rich? Why did they keep Julian Assange in prison for over a decade and why did Pompeo want him murdered? Is that "freedom of the press"? Why don't you question these things?

Never mind I just realized you aren't capable of having a serious conversation, and I don't want to argue with a crackpot/conspiracy theorist. However, for the record you are still apparently not intelligent enough to understand what freedom of the press means.
