«Я ніколи не піду на компроміс щодо інтересів фермерів, власників худоби та рибалок… навіть якщо мені доведеться заплатити високу ціну» #India #farmers
Бо мені інтереси нафтових магнатів і трейдерів ближче... до гаманця. До того ж "висока ціна" фермерів неспівмірна з "високою ціною" нафтових магнатів #oil #traders #tycoons
The Technocratic Conspiracy: How tech tycoons plan to disrupt democracy and become the new rulers of the world
On July 25, 2024, Donald Trump, the Republican nominee for the presidential election in the United States, selected as his running mate 39-year-old senator JD Vance. It was in some ways a strange pick: many believed Trump might need to pick a running mate who would appeal to some of the demographics he was himself not popular with, such as women and minorities. Instead, he chose Vance, a middle-aged white male with some extreme views about women and minorities, who came with very little political experience (having only been first elected to the US Senate in 2022), and who had only just a few years before made clear his disdain for Trump, suggesting that he might be “America’s Hitler”.
Why Vance? Read and find out...

Moscow has financial reserves abroad that no one is talking about.
Sanctioned billionaires and the reserves of the Russian Central Bank are at the center of a search for Russian funds. But Russia is also using a shadow banking system to accumulate state controlled funds abroad.
