What are your expectations here? Bombing Shanghai and toppling the world economy in retaliation for stealing unclassified emails?

Sanctions? More political pressure? Anything but bending over and letting China ream us in the ass? Give them an inch and they take a mile. We KNOW this, so why are we still capitulating?

@Caradoc879 @1bluepixel Who will punish the USA for collecting and selling data of the whole world's population? Not to mention all the data FBI has access to without anyone's permission. Talking about emails, if you happen to use Outlook mobile app, it downloads all your mail to their servers first before your emails are available to you. Android basically forces you to backup your own photos unless you explicitly force disable the "backup" to, again, their servers, in the USA.
