A spate of news articles and YouTube videos: One, this morning, said that there was evidence (I suppose surveillance from above) that a number of Russian Oligarches are heading back to Russian on their Super Yachts. I WONDER IF THEY WILL STOP IN MONACO?
I reason that they might not be on the boats at all.
The idea is to get them back to home turf where they cannot be seized.
Watched a video of Prime Minister Boris Johnson addressing the issues, most about Ukraine, some local, and thought it was wonderful that one of the Members of Parliament, brought up that GREAT BRITAIN IS THE NUMBER ONE PLACE THAT CORRUPT RUSSIANS LAUNDER MONEY THROUGH THE BANKS THERE.
Fantastic!
Wish I was familiar with the face and names.
I WAS IMPRESSED WITH HOW TO THE POINT THE MEMBERS OF PARLIAMENT WERE AND HOW RAPID THE PROCEEDINGS. JOHNSON DID NOT BLINK. HE WAS PREPARED OR ABLE TO ADDRESS EACH AND EVERY QUESTION.
Contrast this a bit with watching a full video of President Joseph Biden's State of the Union Address and the members of Congress. Let us say that there is also a protocol such as a number of people called to escort the President to the podium. I was dismayed at the disorder and lack of formality most of these people had prior to the proceedings. WAS THIS A COCKTAIL PARTY? The only people who showed respect - not just for our President - but for the importance of this speech to the United States and the World were the Supreme Court Justices and Military.
Some of these people were on their cell phones.
Could they not conduct personal business out in the hall or afterwards?
As for his speech, it is true that sometimes Biden stumbles on words and we know that he has overcome a speech impediment in the past and this is not about aging. This is a kind of disability but it did not stop him from working hard and achieving.
Those who wish to condemn him on that basis should know that two of our best Presidents, Franklin Roosevelt and John F. Kennedy were significantly physically disabled which one hid and the other coped with prescription drugs. They were aware that they needed to hide these disabilities. However, for those who are disabled, they show remarkable strength and fortitude.
