Exchanged at birth. Unsure of identity. Tickled by the world around me. Staying awake all night wondering if there really is a Dog watching over all of us.
Amazing. Electoral Bond quid-pro-quo equivalent happning in the good ol' US of A.
It's like the mediaeval Catholic church - pay enough money, and you can be absolved of any sin! Who is going to be our political Martin Luther?
Breaking NYT:
The Trump Justice Department is dropping Biden-era charges against Indian billionaire Gautam Adani.
The reversal came after Adani hired a new legal team led by one of Trump's personal lawyers.
That lawyer went to DOJ and made a proposal: If prosecutors dropped the charges, Adani would be willing to invest $10 billion in the American economy and create 15,000 jobs.

First they renamed roads, and I did not speak out because I was not a road.
Then they renamed cities, and I did not speak out because I was not a city.
Then they renamed stations, and I did not speak out because I was not a station.

Rahul Gandhi has become a chronic liar."
When Orwell wrote #1984, no one imagined he was actually talking about what the country he was born in would look like 75 years after its independence. #DoubleThink, #ThoughtCrime, fact cooking, it's all happening here. 1984 should really be called -
Important: So sixth instalment of Rs 10,000 was given to approx 10 lakh women in Bihar yesterday. Another instalment to be given on 7th November 4 days before polling. Since Model Code in place, 3 cash instalments handed out already. Isn’t this VOTE KHARIDI? EC ‘sources’ call it an ‘ongoing’ scheme! An ongoing scheme that was started just a week before polls were announced! Bizarre logic.
