The market may question the extent to which a sufficiently structured planning process for major economic decisions is taking place," Saravelos said.
This is a joke, right? There very clearly is no planning process at all other than Cheeto Benito's unhinged whims.
Silver lining, the fact that the child of such a terrible person can turn out okay gives me some hope.
What a bunch of nonsense.
The idea that Russia landed airborne troops in Kyiv without wanting to at the very least overthrow the Ukrainian government (just as the US likes to overthrow Latin American countries, which leftists rightly deride as imperialist, but many can't seem to recognize when non-western countries do it) is laughable. It also ignores Putin's clearly-stated belief that Ukraine has no legitimate existence as a separate country, a belief that he reiterated during his interview with Tucker Carlson instead of saying anything that Western supporters of Russia wanted him to say. It ALSO fails to mention reports from early in the invasion that Putin has personally rejected a peace deal because he wanted to go to war.
A couple other things that jumped out at me:
The idea that the war was over NATO membership is outright nonsense, since that goal HAD ALREADY BEEN ACHIEVED by the annexation of Crimea and support for separatist factions, since NATO membership requires territorial integrity.
The statement that the West gave Ukraine their most advanced weapons is a ridiculous lie to anyone watching Ukraine beg for years to get moderately updated tanks and jets, and mid-range ATACMs. In reality, the Biden administration had been withholding the best weapons specifically because they wanted the war to end like this and just didn't want to admit it. The things people do are more important than what they say.
The article conveniently fails to mention any Russian war crimes, such as the repeated bombing of civilian infrastructure, including schools and hospitals (only a bad thing when Israel does it, apparently), the Bucha massacre, or reports of mass graves in occupied areas.
Good thing the Democrats already gave up all their leverage for the next six months, or else they might be expected to do something to capitalize on this.
Why would the US need this access for anything aside from trading with other countries?
To move warships rapidly between the two oceans during the world war he's going to start, obviously.
It's almost as though fascists are unreasonable and attempting to avoid their ire by compliance is doomed to failure if they've already decided to hate you.

Elon truly is a genius businessman. Letting him run the government is clearly a great idea.
Agreed.
Cybertruck owners, though, they're a different story.
"That's too insane for him to actually do" is exactly the sort of complacency that got us into this mess.
There's a simple explanation for that: they're more committed to fascism than to their own self-interests.
What do you mean? He bought that title fair and square!
