Pretty convincing evidence here that the Trump administration was planning to jailbreak and provide asylum for Bolsonaro -- and that Trump inadvertently revealed the plan.
And this, as the now-cliche goes, would have been a paralyzing scandal for any other administration.

Witkoff Advised Russia on How to Pitch Ukraine Plan to Trump
US presidential envoy Steve Witkoff, fresh from the triumph of the Gaza peace deal, held a phone call last month with a senior Kremlin official to suggest they work together on a similar plan for Ukraine — and that Vladimir Putin should raise it with Donald Trump.

It's also bleakly funny that even in 2022 I thought it was laying it on awful thick about tech bro douches, but if anything Norton's character is way too aware of other people as a concept and is at least attempting to fake an interesting inner life.
Pregaming for Wake Up Dead by watching Glass Onion, for some reason it especially pleases me that Rian Johnson has Blanc quote "My God, it's full of stars" and make note that the line is from 2010 not 2001.

Es ist komplett sekundärrelevant, aber wie sehr der Typ einfach durch und durch Sauerländer ist, egal ob es nun angemessen ist oder nicht, ist schon echt unerträglich. Wohnwagenrentner im Kanzleramt.

Friedrich Merz (15.01.2024): "Wenn ein Bundeskanzler mit einer so niedrigen Zustimmungsrate keinerlei Anzeichen gibt, an seiner Kommunikation, seiner Politik, seinem Führungsstil etwas zu ändern, dann lässt er die Bevölkerung allein mit allen Problemen. Das ist einfach respektlos."
AfD bleibt in Umfrage stärkste Kraft: Zufriedenheit mit der Merz-Regierung sinkt auf neuen Tiefstand
Die Koalition streitet, große schwarz-rote Reformen sind bisher Fehlanzeige. Die Wähler beurteilen das Bündnis aus CDU/CSU und SPD sowie den Kanzler selbst immer schlechter. Die Rechten profitieren.

You have to keep giving money to avoid collapse and if there’s collapse you have to give more money. It’s called the free market.

The people who created the bubble industry now argue that it is too big to fail. Aces.
One explanation for economic populism in the US is the recurring cycle of bubbles and bailouts that happens without any democratic input

We’ve spent 15+ years as a field in political science/IPE trying to make trade the primary culprit for populist authoritarianism when cycles of financial bubbles, crashes, bailouts, & austerity are right there in front of us.
