And how’s that ‘MIT guys will be air-traffic controllers’ plan working out?

When ... not if. Putin has just been rewarded, and he will keep going until he is stopped

Trump’s pardons are for sale, and it doesn’t matter where the money comes from. There have already been 1,500 pardons and commutations .. and it hasn’t even been a full year. The MAGA minions are now turning into Baghdad Bobs on the simplest question.

Baghdad Bessent has always lived in an alternate reality.

Emirates and Sony withdrew their FIFA sponsorship in 2014 because of the blatant corruption and FIFA’s complete unwillingness to address it. Gazprom stepped in to take their place ... fitting, given that corruption appears to be part of its core culture, just like FIFA’s.

Putin is tapping into Russia’s gold reserves to pay out bribes through Qatar. It’s not hard to imagine who’s receiving these ‘consultancy fees.’

Sure, but that’s still only 9% of the total. Fossil fuels account for more than 70%. My point isn’t the rate of increase but the strategic goal of Russia and China to make Asia critically dependent on their fossil fuels.

The five-year plan will be ready in two weeks.

The tough talk always came from the chairborne guys .. no difference here.

So this guy is Trump’s pick for Fed Chair. Brace for impact...

If you travel around India, Sri Lanka, or the Maldives, you’ll notice that there are very few solar panels, even though they get endless hours of sun. That’s because it’s still cheaper for them to burn Russian oil and gas, and there are few government incentives to change that.

This isn’t that difficult, Einstein. If Putin wants peace, why did he start the war? And if he wants peace, why doesn’t he just order his troops to go back to Russia?

Great, that could give real results in 10-15 years.

It’s not like an MRI scanner will sneak up on you and run some tests without you knowing.

Reminds me of when our daughter refused to leave the house unless she could wear her princess dress .. but she was five years old, not the director of the FBI.

Russia wants new elections in Ukraine so it can massively rig them in favor of a pro-Russian leader, just like in Georgia, Transnistria, Chechnya, and Belarus. In reality, the country that urgently needs genuine democratic elections is Russia itself, after 25 years under Putin.

Trump’s release of major drug traffickers makes a lot more sense when viewed through the lens of pay-to-play politics. He just wants a piece of their business.

Yes, by bribing the Duma and ensuring a very short life expectancy for anyone who opposes him. Thirty years in power: the telltale sign of a truly democratic and legitimate leader.

Putin's presidential term ended in 2008 according to Russian law.

This isn’t exactly Woodward&Bernstein–level journalism anymore.
