So if they’re losing Bezos does that mean the cost of fuel is severely cutting into Amazon’s bottom line?

I know he left the company but it’s still his baby and probably has a lot of his wealth tied up in Amazon stock, which probably would take a hit if they have to raise the price of Prime again.

Keep in mind that a huge amount of Amazon's revenue comes from AWS. Tech stocks have been getting crushed and if tech companies have to start pulling back on expansion plans or start laying people off and shutting down services, it has knock-on effects on Amazon.

It's not about resources but location, Somalia is squatting on some very strategically valuable land. There's a reason there is so much piracy in the area and that because of how many major trade routes take you right by Somalia.

The countries on the other side of Gulf of Aden are another major reason for the US wanting influence in Somalia.

I really think we should have actual gun cruisers that's sole purpose is to occasionally sail up and down the coasts of Somalia and just shell the fuck out of anything that could harbor pirates. Just work up some improvements and modernizations to the last generation of 8" guns like the Newport News had.

Also I'm really sad no one remembered 2016 Meme Magic and made a Plus Ultra MAGA King reference.

That free prime shipping costs money somewhere down the line.

So, the country is headed down the shitter with mass inflation, gouging gas prices, rapist far left educators preying on insecure students, baby formula shortages, etc. and all this negress bitch has to say when asked anything is basically “I don’t know lol”

Comments in the Reuters tweet are saying that that pic was taken during a training exercise.

At the same time, we have a 4-Star general applauding the Clapping Einsteins of Kyiyiyiiv for their skills at Arma 3.

Indeed. For example:
Glowie: "Guys, that previous shooting in Buffalo didn't work at distracting the angry, hungry, poor masses, what do we do?!"
Glowie #2: "HOW ABOUT ANOTHER ONE?!"

Funny you mentioned that: the perp was a Han Chinese immigrant motivated by hatred for Taiwanese. So that one is getting memory-holed.
 
I have no idea what to believe regarding the war the propaganda is so intense. If you believe CNN and the White House Ukrainian forces have taken Russia and are currently marching through the streets of Moscow carrying Puntin's severed head.
 
I wonder how long it will take for someone in the political planning meetings to ask "Is it a good idea to turn everything into a massive crisis at the same time?". Individually I'm sure the logic is "Make it seem like a huge deal to stir up a huge amount of support", but information overload still applies, and people will start checking out from each individual crisis and start amalgamating them.

And the only unifying connection most voters have for the events at hand would be Biden, or Trump if they're deranged. And having the non-insane lefties check out and conclude "Everythings going to shit under Biden" is not a winning move.
 
So the White House is saying it was told that baby formula could be a problem to produce and distribute since at least last December and it did...
????
They're not even just lying and saying that they were blindsided, they're saying, "We knew about this for 5 months and did nothing." What the fuck?
