Zoraptor Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 It's not like they could 'lose' Kosovo short of pulling their troops out, which won't happen. It's about as literal a vassal state as it's possible to get in modern polities, wholly dependent on aid, remittances and subsidies from all the NATO troops/ bases. If you started getting the same rhetoric applied to Bosnia it'd mean something more. I'd say they're trying to get a condemnation of Russia out of Serbia in exchange so they can say that Russia has no allies in Europe; and more of a long shot recognition of Kosovo so people don't continually point it out as an example of western hypocrisy. The former would be exactly the sort of ultimately meaningless feel good spectacle that von der Leyen and Borrel love, the latter would have more substance but probably be political suicide.

Bartimaeus Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 (edited) Donald J. Trump has been federally indicted seven times for criminal mishandling of classified documents. Edited June 9, 2023 by Bartimaeus 1 Quote How I have existed fills me with horror. For I have failed in everything - spelling, arithmetic, riding, tennis, golf; dancing, singing, acting; wife, mistress, whore, friend. Even cooking. And I do not excuse myself with the usual escape of 'not trying'. I tried with all my heart. In my dreams, I am not crippled. In my dreams, I dance.

Well, or at least I hope they are. kinda. our understanding is what they (at least the reputable attorneys on the team) are doing is setting their retainer extreme high and the retainer account must be maintained or else the attorney may recuse for "fundamental differences." am gonna wait 'til we read full indictment before commenting 'bout trump's situation vis-a-vis mar-a-lago documents. however, 'cause am assuming this scene is gonna be invoked more frequent in the coming days... obvious trump and his cronies were not fans o' the wire, to their detriment. edit: am gonna observe how following a quick read, the charge(s) we were surprised by were 18 U.S. Code § 1512 - Tampering with a witness, victim, or an informant related. is not shocking trump co would do such (alleged) but is the first time am having heard mention o' witness tampering in the context o' mar-a-lago.

I have been following this outrage on Codex from Trump supporters and the arguments are generally unconvincing. People tend to say things like " this is just another Mueller inquiry targeting Trump and its purely political " But we need to separate previous allegations from this, he definitely has charges to answer in this case. And I always wonder if Obama was being charged what the same people would be saying?

But there are cases and allegations against Trump that turned out not to be true or were not what people assumed like the Mueller inquiry which was important but Trump didnt have any direct links to the Ruskies Thats where witch-hunt comes from and US culture wars just makes some people's views trenchant and automated even before evidence or inquiries are concluded.
