My entire life Chinese officials have been strategic, long term buyers.
They will buy and hold a years worth of commodities. They hold a mountain of beans on the dock in June, sell three ships worth, see the harvest prices drop, then buy next year's supply.
He traded chips for beans. At a loss.

The problem there being that words mean things, especially when they officially come from the United States. It’s exhausting and unreasonable to expect others to guess when American leadership means what it says, and when it’s just lying to keep Trump and Vance happy.

Regardless, service time manipulation will occur. I predict the first article discussing "why the Jays should" is printed in March.
Trey Yesavage threw 139.2 innings last year.
98 in the minors.
14 in the big leagues.
27.2 in the playoffs.
GTFO with this “the Jays will need to carefully monitor his innings” BS.

Just imagining how much better it would be if ALL news stories about vaccine-preventable illnesses were illustrated with pictures of people with the disease, not pictures of needle injections. If you must show something that people will find scary & unpleasant, make it the disease, not the cure.
I'm so tired of measles.
I'm also tired of people using needle shots on stories like this.
