BREAKING: The Trump administration is seeking to rescind a rule that was put in place to stop private equity funds from bribing public officials, per Axios
Jared Kushner‘s Win-Win statement is exposing the absolute lack of understanding of the situation or worse.
Putin is not thinking in „business terms“. He has accumulated wealth which he won’t be able to spend in 100 lifetimes, by some accounts making him even the richest person on earth.
Putin is passed that. For him it is now only about legacy. He wants that people in the next centuries look back and call his name next to Peter the Great and Stalin. He will not achieve that by calling his invasion off. In the contrary, calling it off would only make him hang naked upside down the Kremlin wall, because he has achieved nothing other than diminishing Russia.
Kushner‘s apparent ignorance not only shows why every peace offers fail, it also explains why it only fuels the war. Putin thinks for good reasons that he is dealing with absolute amateurs in the White House, who can get played with „business talk“, giving him only more time.
Just look the last two years and you see that Russia hasn’t moved an inch, and under Putin never ever will. Any half-intelligent person would question the cause of actions and alter the direction. But those in the White House can help themselves.
This whole stunt was predictably a waste of time.
@DanielleLangWa So droughts are bad and above average rainfall is bad 🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️
If we have record rainfall, there’ll be disasters and also massive benefits. Rarely is anything 100% bad or 100% good.
BREAKING: The Trump administration is now refusing payouts for US soldiers who died in the US-Israeli war against Iran "because it isn't a war," per Telegraph.
Libby Klinner, widow of 33-year-old Major Alex Klinner, says the US Air Force deemed her ineligible for additional benefits following her husband's death because Congress has not officially declared war. She says "my husband lost his life because we're in a war, and then I was told that because it's not technically a war, we lose out on something. It all comes down to principle."
Trump responded that US strikes on Iran were "intermittent" and said "a lot of people don't call it a war. I call it a military conflict, because it's small potatoes for us."
Families of US service members are now accusing the Pentagon of downplaying the extent of injuries sustained and saying they are not being treated by the US military as combat casualties.
@MattRexroad@andyfurillo Don’t see how the second part isn’t right with how big of a disaster this term has been. I had low expectations and it’s way worse than I thought 😳😳😳
BREAKING: Look at this trade by Pelosi.
Pelosi longs 10,000 Bloom Energy, $BE, on the 24th of July + 100 of the 100 calls expiring 6/17.
Then yesterday, it was announced Bloom Energy was going to be added to the S&P500.
Someone always knows.
