Our boys will work with ANYBODY - as long as they pay in greenbacks - its all good.

Money talks and bullsheet walks .

I would suggest the article title is quite misleading.

The journo may herself have meant well - can't be sure, but her editorial team at Reuters probably went hunting for some Delhi-pleasing copenomics where there clearly wasn't any present in the actual content of the article, and hence put forward this clickbait title.

Your personalised commentary mentions "surprising accuracy". How can this be so if there is a fundamental discordance between the title and the content of the article? I would have thought the opposite holds true.

It was suprising only because many prior Reuters' stories from Pakistan-based reporters seemed to have been dictated by the boys in Aabpara.

Regardless of whether surprising or not, how can you claim it is "accurate" if the title and the content are discordant?

What rocks will the Field Marshal show to the Democrats this time to lure them?

I never said they were. I only pointed out that forum rules precluded the use of any other thread title irrespective of the content of the article.

Next time not just rocks , whiskey on the rocks.

Well, passage of Pakistan Democracy Act, which has bipartisan support, is now much more likely. Once Congress opens investigations into and exposes shady side deals for Trump, Witkoff and their friends and families, veto will be a lot more difficult.

Foreign policy is the POTUS's exclusive domain. Congress can't pass bills that affect foreign policy, except for funding. If passed, it would be symbolic only.
