It is important to be involved with trading with other countries to counter Chinese influence. Also free unfettered trade keeps prices low for American consumers

 @8TB7FMR from Texas  agreed…2yrs2Y

Absolutely. We need friends, allies, and trading partners across the world. If we isolate ourselves from everyone, then other countries will go to our adversaries for business.

 @9FXB9C4 from Georgia  agreed…2yrs2Y

Additionally, this constant trend of trying to drop the U.S. from almost every trade agreement will lead to eventual economic isolation which is a horrible financial decision for everyone.

 @9FX4W8XNatural Law from Illinois  agreed…2yrs2Y

No , it is not our business to interfere in unless they are moving caches of destructive weapons or things that could be seen as detrimental to public safety

 @9FVJCFJIndependent from Alabama  disagreed…2yrs2Y

The United States became what it is today through regional and international cooperation, and denouncing the free trade agreement between the US, Canada, and Mexico would overall harm the nation by sending it into a state of isolation. Isolationism had a drastic effect on the US economy, and if people really want to keep the faux-utopia idea around they should say yes to NAFTA.

 @9FYX4DMCommunist from Wisconsin  agreed…2yrs2Y

All the influx of immigration has been in large part due to the exploitation endured by workers in other countries.

Biden will issue a pardon of his son Hunter Biden

President Joe Biden has decided to issue a pardon for his son Hunter and is expected to announce it Sunday night, according to a senior White House official with direct knowledge of the decision.The decision marks a reversal for the president, who has repeatedly said he would not use his executive authority to pardon his son or commute his sentence. The pardon comes ahead of Hunter Biden’s Dec. 12 sentencing for his conviction on federal gun charges. Hunter Biden also is set to be sentenced in a separate criminal case on Dec. 16, after pleading guilty in September on federal tax evasion charges.The pardon is expected to cover both Hunter Biden’s gun charges conviction and guilty plea.The senior White House official said Biden decided over this weekend to grant his son a pardon and began to inform his senior aides on Sunday. Using his pardon power to assure Hunter Biden does not spend time in jail comes as the 82-year-old president is near the end of his term in the White House and has no future election to face. In recent months Biden has said he would not pardon his son or commute his sentence.“I will not pardon him,” the president said of his son in June after a jury found him guilty on three federal gun charges.President Biden has discussed issuing a pardon for his son with some of his closest aides since at least Hunter Biden’s conviction in June, two people with direct knowledge of the discussions about the matter said. They said a decision was made at the time for the president to publicly say he would not pardon his son even though doing so remained on the table.White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters earlier this month that the president’s position has not changed.
