    All this just to keep Epstein out of the news…

    In all seriousness though, what in the ever-loving fuck

        So… Tell me about the oil. I hear the cancellation of green projects and the forced operation of coal plants. But the barrel price is way down. Are they inept at cornering the fossil fuel industry? What’s happening?

      Where I am (Europe), I haven’t seen a single article calling this what it clearly is. Maduro is just a captive in every article, never a hostage. But they have no issue calling an Israeli pow a hostage despite him being taken from his damn tank in occupied territory. The west has become a total and very visible clown show, and I don’t think changing Trump to the next Obama can do a lot to change that perception internationally. Specially Europe has shown itself to be a particularly pathetic entity with very little independence from ‘daddy’ Trump.

      I wonder how and when narco-trafficing becomes narco-terrorism. Presumably they’d have to explain that distinction in the kangaroo court?
