'In Ukraine, the state itself is investigating the government, the cabinet, the president’s closest advisers. By contrast, it is impossible to imagine Kash Patel’s FBI investigating anyone in Trump’s White House. Any Russian who investigates Putin goes to jail"

Good analogy “attacking American companies over garbage”.

Yes, the polluters should pay.

The toxic sludge created by US Tech should be fined like any other ‘externality’ — like oil spills, chemical leaks, poisoning rivers.

If Farage had just admitted, apologised and repented his teenage racism - water under the bridge. But the fact that he has denied the truth and maligned those saying it NEARLY FIFTY YEARS ON, indicates to me not only his untrustworthiness, but that these antisemitic beliefs are not so historic

Has he cut & run? Or is this some 3-D chess-type voodoo? Thoughts please.
