Bizarre beyond belief.
During Fiona Hill's testimony to Congress on Oct 14, 2019, she described how Trump and Putin discussed exchanging Ukraine for Venezuela. The quid pro quo was if Trump refuses to help Ukraine fight off a Russian invasion, Putin would not help Venezuela (a Russian ally) resist a US takeover.

The Venezuelan leader faces a multi-count indictment in New York. Experts in international law question his arrest, but that probably will not affect his trial.

You know who doesn't rush to buy wi-fi-enabled "smart" appliances? IT security people. I had one regale me with a story about a "smart" heater that could be remotely made to bypass its own thermostat and keep heating. Ideal for burning your enemy's house down.

Politicians like Farage and Mahmodo are tearing it apart by their divisive rhetoric and dishonest framing of the known facts behind immigration.
I despise them for it.
