In this figurative sense, "the Kremlin is made of many towers":

Has many centers of influence, factions, or power groups that must all be navigated (each tower representing a different group or branch).

I hear Trump is in the process of changing all Judges from Immigration to Depotation Judges.

I have very bad news for the thinking half of Americans "Trump will not make the end of his term" which means a President Vance.

Yuck

Is TRUMP is "evil" or "demented."?

Comparing Drake's actions were a form of state-sanctioned piracy to Pete's unconventional military/law enforcement action.

Both involved the use of armed maritime force, with state sanction, to attack vessels in the Caribbean, sometimes resulting in the destruction of civilian or non-military craft
Pete Hegseth is the kind of liar who thinks confidence and a loud voice can substitute for truth. It doesn’t.

PS- none of this should be making old man Trump drowsy.

Russia's attacks on Ukrainian civilians make Kazakhstan's defense of the oil terminal "moot".

Kazakhstan's assertion that the oil terminal is protected by international law is based on the principle of Distinction within IHL.

Pete Hegseth.

The Prohibition on Targeting Persons Hors de Combat: A core rule of IHL, codified in the Geneva Conventions and Additional Protocols, strictly prohibits attacking persons who are recognized as hors de combat.

Wilful killing of civilians or persons hors de combat is a War Crime.

US Healthcare prioritizes Administrators (to collect money) over healthcare outcomes. It is bonkers.

Car Insurance co have gone from "we can save 700 to we can save you 900!" Welcome to Trump 's World.

This common practice by car insurance companies continues for a combination of competitive marketing and adherence to advertising regulations through very specific, calculated language.

Listening to the Trumpet play the national anthem before the Dallas/KC game is amazing, how is it possible that the country has an Orange turd as a President?

Forget Hitler and Musolini, Trump is playing a MAO play book.
Trump is America's Mao:

The comparison between Donald Trump's populism and Mao Zedong's Cultural Revolution (CR) is often made by political analysts and historians to highlight similarities in the methods used to attack and disrupt the established political and cultural "system."

We are just entering Trump's Cultural Revolution.

You think you have problems with Daylight Savings Time?

China's decision to use a single time zone—Beijing Time (UTC+8)—across its entire vast territory, which geographically spans what should be about five time zones, creates several significant issues, particularly in the western regions.

The main reasons William Tutte is often forgotten, or less famous than Alan Turing, relate to the secrecy of his work and the subsequent public narrative.

It is a great injustice.

We now need to wait for Russia to falter?

We are seeing a parallel between Wilson's 14 Points and the current diplomatic efforts, shifting US-Ukraine peace framework, which was recently reduced to 19 points.

The reason my coffee lb packs are up in price by 20% has nothing to do with the price of coffee!

Maybe Trump should try and grow coffee on his golf course?

Peter Thiel's Government in waiting.

Elite/Tech-Led Rule: He advocates for a political order where "founders" and tech elites lead society, prioritizing efficiency and technological progress over traditional democratic accountability. This has been interpreted as a vision of an oligarchy.
