Trump is coming to Vietnam. If you thought that samurai warrior comment was bad, just wait, there's more to come. Hopefully he's less harmful than the last orange thing from America

I really don't get why news stories keep including that he had an email address under an alias. It's the one part that doesn't matter and putting it next to the actual incriminating stuff just gives critics ammunition.

There was a journalist who'd known him for over a decade and used to be more or less friends with him, who seemed pretty unsurprised. He said Flynn had been smart/capable, but had played fast and loose with a lot of rules if he thought them dumb or unnecessary. Examples included passing classified info to other agencies or other nations without going through proper channels if he thought they had too much red tape, and also sharing classified info with reporters on background if he thought getting the info out would help the war effort. The journo characterized him as seeing ends justifying means, even if it meant ignoring regs. He said the only real surprise was potential extent, rather than that he'd done stuff outside the rules.

I LICK APE PUSSY posted:How do you post life insurance as part of your bond? Control of the policy transfers if you run? What if the state doesn't want to pay premiums? It's probably a whole-life annuity that can be cashed out at a fraction of benefit value. While a scam for most people compared to term-life, they can be a useful estate tax dodge for high rollers.

Of course if you're really loaded you create your own insurance company with yourself as the only customer and your kids as the owners and shovel cash out of your estate by paying it incredibly high tax-free premiums to insure risks that will never, ever, ever happen. https://www.mmsonline.com/columns/the-captive-audience

Basically, when you reach enough zeros of net worth, the rules completely change and things that seem insane to us make huge amounts of financial sense. At a certain point, you don't actually own anything tangible of real value. Its all owned by a maze of holding corps and trusts that you, your spouse and children own and are managing partners of. Think of it as classical physics vs quantum physics.

Suicide Watch posted:You cant spell urine without uranium and an e. Makes you wonder (I'm always deeply frustrated by left wing writers who crank out these pieces about a "right wing bubble destroying objective truth" with the implicit assumption that their own media diet and biases reflect factual reality. Yeah, the right wing media is guilty on an unprecedented level, but Adbusters and "question reality" bumper stickers were a thing long before Breitbart was, and the left has its own sacred cows and "I loving love clickbait" boosters. Not saying both sides are equally wrong, but I dislike the assumption by one side that they are inarguably right.)
