turn that around without offending the Oligarchy Union, Russia honourable member, for the Western World grown fat on illicit corrupt evil money…., that is the quandary.

Hello Florida and North Dakota and Delaware, etc….!

Other members of the Union, dictators and democrats alike, will need to be consulted.

Frightening times for the Ultra Rich if the pagans are coming for their money.

You nailed it.

Putin bribed corrupt western politicians to weaken their own democracies. And they didn't even think twice about it because the money was so good and Putin helped them get "elected."

it's important to watch, just to show how the 1% has a vested interest in keeping these people afloat and avoiding legal transparency. I mostly just want this issue to be exposed. It goes on in this country as well and Trump and his ilk are the biggest offenders. Glad you posted it!

It's difficult to fight against something when you don't know how it works. I'm glad you posted it, too.
