Just finished Kleptopia by Tom Burgis, on the combined effects of globalization, & worldwide forces of corruption… and Kara Swisher’s last On podcast about Cyberwar with Nicole Perlroth, Michael Schmidt, & Lt. Col. Vindman… IMO they knew… but given it’s a Trump Putin regime, didn’t say anything

Anyone who believed for even a millisecond, that Mone and her husband would pay the fine need psychiatric assistance.
