Sanctions have forced the oligarchs to look inward. Less shopping spree in Paris, London, New York etc., less education abroad for family members, less stashing of funds abroad and boosting of the London financial system.
The Magnitsky Act has really f*^ked the Oligarchs.
They have to spend and invest more of their money in places like Kazan, Novosibirsk.
Funds outside of Russia face the possibility of freeze.
Russian educational institutions should now see a marked investment.

What is unchanged between the two regimes is the amoral authoritarianism, leading to aggression and subversion as tools of policy.

Trump repeatedly denied collusion. Now his lawyer Rudy Giuliani says: 'Collusion is not a crime'
So, now that they know Donny will be exposed as having prior knowledge re Jr’s Russian meeting, they’re switching their defense to this. Sigh. Lock them up!

Russian soldiers guard the remnants of Trump’s Hollywood Walk of Fame Star, which was destroyed earlier this week. +1 for political street theater.

Gui today to CNN:
Quote:
I’ve been sitting here looking in the federal code trying to find “collusion” as a crime. Collusion is not a crime.
|
So there it is folks. Mueller might as well shut down his investigation.
But wait, why did Flynn and Gates plead guilty if collusion is not a crime?

In a very strict sense, Giuliani is right that there isn’t a particular crime called “collusion.” But that’s kind of like saying that if you walked into an Apple Store, stuffed an iPhone in your pants and walked out, you’re innocent because the criminal code makes no specific reference to “stuffing an iPhone in your pants.”

Lol. Whell’s kind of “logic”.

Of course, Gui is speaking to the Trumptards. Word he needs to look up is Intent.
