Damn, it is a window conspiracy. Maybe he was a pane in the neck to Putin, so the window cleaners were sentπŸ€”

Really weird. Not really heard anyone talk about brown in any meaningful way.
I suspect this is the "I'll raise a subject by mentioning others have been talking about it" tactic, to justify my role. πŸ™„

Why bother. Russians stroll through Hungary and get free access to the rest of the EU. The diplomats are the distraction πŸ™„

Pay a bribe and guarantee a pardon. The Trump administration πŸ™„

The problem with politicians everywhere is that they become morally ambiguous. It might be money, thirst for power or personal agendas but a lot fall into that. Funny enough, the Trump administration ticks all three.
Germany was foolish to get involved with Russia re energy, maybe backhanders paid πŸ™„

The expression "follow the money" seems apt.
Trump gives Argentina Β£20b, Argentina sells soy beans to China. Trump says he wants to help farmers not able to sell soy beans etc, says tariffs will help them.
How much is going on backhanders? πŸ€”

I agree with Neville, it is just opportunists trying to drum up hatred.

I remember reading that book on a bus. It made me feel queasy, as I had reached the passage describing what she was doing to stop him leaving 🫩

I suspect the collapse will come. The stock market must reverse soon.

I don't understand who would buy it. Ignoring the shoddy manufacturing, the truck is the ugliest thing I have ever seen.
Surely the American buying public's taste hasn't eroded that much.πŸ€”

Yes, it is risky allowing Orban near any sensitive data.
Russia already uses Hungary as an entry point for their spies, letting them enter Hungary and from there other EU countries. πŸ™„

No, the host actually ripped into him, and stated he was lying re immigrants getting healthcare (Scott Jennings was pushing that old lie). I think they allow balance. One of the other guests was taking him to task, literally asking him about zip tying children, and Scott refused to accept it πŸ™„

Scott Jennings on CNN table of five is defending the action of ICE. He actually refused to say he is against illegal actions by ICE.
What an odious man πŸ™„

Not sure they doubt it is Russia, just that they don't know what to do and don't like to admit it.
Europe needs to up their game, start relying on themselves and build up their own defense industry. I include Ukraine in that, who led on drone expertise in Europe.

Europe has been in coma for decades. The problem is that burying your head in the sand only works if you do not care about yourself or the world around you.
They literally watched a drone war happening and did nothing.
Then are surprised when Russia uses drones and disinformation. πŸ™„

Yes, there will be profit to be made. Quickly divest the stock, maybe buy back when prices tank low enough.

Yes, but I see that as harmless. Just like Iceland and their viking clap (though that is a good oneπŸ™‚)

They tried to excuse it by saying it is a normal New York crowd. It was encouraged, because they thought shouting insults at the opposition is the same as encouraging their own players.
I have no issues with shouting "USA" but abuse?
This is just what a lot of America has become, and embarrassment.πŸ™„
