CK Hutchison will not sign deal to sell strategic Panama ports next week, sources say

 

March 28 (Reuters) - Hong Kong's CK Hutchison (0001.HK) will not sign a deal next week to sell its two port operations near the Panama Canal to a BlackRock-led group, two people with direct knowledge of the matter said, as pressure mounted from Beijing.

China's market regulator said it will carry out an antitrust review on the Panama port deal in accordance with a law to protect fair competition and safeguard the public interest, its official WeChat account showed late on Friday.

Za ovo se ne slažem. 

 

Ostatak posta razumem, samo ne znam zašto meni to objašnjavanje pošto ja ne mislim kao ti ljudi. To njima treba objasniti. Meni je njihov stav naivan kao i tebi, ali eto - tako misle i ne podržavaju Hamas. Žive u nekoj iluziji da bi Izraelci mogli slobodno da žive u palenstijskoj državi bez terorizma ali tako kako je. Moja poenta i dalje stoji. 

 

Pošto sam se nekako prepoznao, nemam ja iluzije da bi Izraelci živeli (uopšte, bilo kako) u palestinskoj državi nego da  imaju svoju državu je ono što smatram da pripada svakom narodu pa naravno i Palestincima. Ne mislim da treba da imaju državu od jezera do mora ili kako već to zovu, taj nacionalistički i antijevrejski moto, pokret, šta god.

 

Samo, sabijeni u ono parče zemlje (Gaza), to baš nije zdravo ni za njih a vrv ni za Izrael koji je odmah tu. Rešenje je očito u tome da se svi odreknu nečega, nekog sopstvenog interesa a koliko izgleda već 100 godina nikakav kompromis tamo niko nije spreman da učini.

 

Čisto perspektive radi, prenaseljenost bi bila problem i da su tamo Jehovini svedoci jer bi u nekom trenutku postalo neizdrživo i nemoguće da sve više ljudi živi na tako malom prostoru, a kamo li tako militarizovano društvo. A to je samo jedan problem i to manji u ovom trenutku.

Možemo postaviti i pitanje kome smeta palestinska država? Odgovor je izraelskim ultradesničarima, koji sede u njihovoj Vladi i sanjaju o tome da oružjem pripoje Palestinu, južni Liban i zapadnu obalu reke Jordan.

Malo o poslovima našeg brata Jareda Kushnera, udato prezime tranp:

 

Kushner's Affinity's assets jump to $4.8 billion after Gulf cash injection

 

LONDON, March 28 (Reuters) - Jared Kushner's investment company Affinity Partners saw assets under management jump 60% last year to $4.8 billion, according to a regulatory filing, after it received a cash injection from Middle East investors including Qatar's sovereign wealth fund.

Kushner, son-in-law of U.S. President Donald Trump, launched the investment firm in 2021 after leaving the White House at the end of President Donald Trump's first term, when he was a top adviser on the Middle East.

Affinity secured $1.5 billion of extra capital in 2024 from two of its existing investors - Abu Dhabi-based Lunate and Qatar's sovereign wealth fund the Qatar Investment Authority - Kushner told an investment podcast in December.

He said the increased capital would give the fund "more firepower" and had been closed before Trump was re-elected for a second term.

That injection helped lift its assets under management to $4.8 billion by the end of 2024, up from $3 billion the prior year, according to filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission under the company name A Fin Management LLC.

The sole owner of the company is Jared Kushner, the filing said.

Saudi Arabia has invested $2 billion in Affinity Partners, according to congressional investigators.

 

Bar tri četvrtine investitora su mu strane države (Lunate je nominalno privatni fond, ali je njegov osnivač Khalifa al-Suwaidi proxy za Emirate i našeg drugog brata bin Zajeba) koje izuzetno štuju vladavinu prava i individualne slobode. Čisto da se zna kod koga je daljinski za dobrog Jareda.

France, Belgium scoff at anti-DEI letter from Trump administration

 

Several French companies received a letter — first reported by Les Echos and obtained by POLITICO — requiring them to certify that they don’t implement DEI or positive discrimination programs.

“If you do not agree to sign this document, we would appreciate it if you could provide detailed reasons, which we will forward to our legal teams,” reads the request sent to French companies and signed by Stanislas Parmentier, the contracting officer at the U.S. embassy in Paris.

Companies in other EU countries including Italy, Spain and Belgium reportedly received similar requests.

“American interference in the inclusion policies of French companies, as well as unjustified threats of tariffs, are unacceptable,” France’s trade ministry said in a statement on Saturday.

 

Spoiler

PARIS — European government officials and business representatives have poured scorn on a request from the United States State Department for companies to drop diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) measures.

Ministers from France and Belgium pushed back strongly on the effort by the Trump administration to spread its anti-DEI policies, which have taken aim at universities, companies, government contractors and security services worldwide.

“It is out of the question that we will prevent our business from promoting additional social progress [and] social rights,” said French Minister for Gender Equality Aurore Bergé in an interview with BFMTV Sunday. “Thankfully, a lot of French companies don’t plan to change their policies.”

 

"

We have a culture of non-discrimination in Europe and we must continue that,” Belgian Deputy Prime Minister Jan Jambon said Sunday evening on the French-language TV channel RTL-TVi. “We have no lessons to learn from the boss of America.”

How the Trump family took over a crypto firm as it raised hundreds of millions

 

LONDON/NEW YORK, March 31 (Reuters) - As World Liberty Financial raised more than half a billion dollars, President Donald Trump’s family took control of the crypto venture and grabbed the lion’s share of those funds, aided by governance terms that industry experts say favor insiders.

Launched last fall, World Liberty’s goal is to allow people to access financial services using cryptocurrencies and without intermediaries like banks in what is called decentralized finance, or DeFi. But it has yet to launch a public platform and has reported only a small staff, a review of the project shows.

Even so, World Liberty said in mid-March it had raised $550 million selling so-called governance tokens. Most of those sales took place after Trump’s election win in November, Reuters calculations show.

The tokens, which go by the symbol $WLFI, give holders the right to vote on changes to the project’s underlying code and to signal their opinion on its direction and plans. They cannot be traded.

As its fundraising got traction, World Liberty disclosed in January that the Trump family had taken control of the business, a review of changes in the fine print on World Liberty’s website shows. Two of its co-founders, crypto entrepreneurs Zak Folkman and Chase Herro, were replaced as the controlling parties of World Liberty by an entity in which the Trump family holds a 60% stake.

The changes have not been previously reported.

Overall, the Trump family now has a claim on 75% of net revenues from token sales and 60% from World Liberty operations once the core business gets going. The arrangement means the Trump family is currently entitled to about $400 million in fees. After World Liberty's co-founders take their cut, the crypto venture will be left with 5% of the $550 million raised to date to build the platform, according to Reuters calculations.

The arrangements, including the Trump family’s large share of the project’s revenues and the non-tradeable nature of the governance tokens, make World Liberty unusually centralized for the industry, according to a survey of the practices of the five largest DeFi lending platforms and interviews with four U.S. academics who study the crypto industry.

"It's hard for me to see any economic benefit to the owner of these tokens," said Jim Angel, an associate professor at Georgetown University who has written about DeFi regulation.

David Krause, a longtime finance professor at Marquette University in Milwaukee who recently published a study of World Liberty, said that the structure of the project “pretty much excludes public investors or token holders from any meaningful financial participation.”

A White House spokesperson referred questions about World Liberty to the Trump Organization. The Trump Organization's chief legal officer and the president's two older sons, who are executives at the company, did not respond to requests for comment.

The Trump Organization announced in January that the president's investments, assets and business interests would be held in a trust managed by his children and he would play no role in day-to-day operations or decision-making. The family's business also retained an attorney to serve as an ethics adviser to "avoid any perceived conflicts of interest."

Folkman and Herro did not reply to Reuters questions in person and in writing. In a post on social media platform X on March 14, World Liberty said it “is a DeFi project with a tremendous mission to build and democratize a new financial system for the benefit of millions.”

At a conference in February, Herro said the plan was to open crypto investing to everyday Americans such as teachers, dentists and firemen. His business partner, Donald Trump Jr, the president's son, has complained about the family being excluded from traditional banking in the aftermath of his father's first term.

 

CRYPTO PRESIDENT

The Trump family’s investment in World Liberty ties the personal fortunes of a sitting U.S. president to an asset class that sits at the outer edges of both risk and regulation.

Trump has promised to be the “crypto president,” who will popularize its mainstream use in America. He has said he backs crypto because it can improve the banking system and increase the dominance of the U.S. dollar.

At the same time, the Trump family, long rooted in skyscrapers and country clubs, has opened beachheads in crypto, quickly gaining hundreds of millions of dollars. A so-called meme coin promoted by Trump has generated at least $349 million in fees for entities connected to the president, according to crypto data firm Chainalysis.

 

 

The prospect of Trump and his family benefiting from deregulation has drawn criticism from his political opponents and some government ethics experts who say it creates the potential for conflicts of interest and influence peddling.

"You've got the guy in charge who is responsible for his own regulation," said Ross Delston, a former U.S. banking regulator who has acted as an expert witness on anti-money laundering issues for the government.

Delston also pointed to the potential for people buying $WLFI tokens to earn political favor. It would be “the perfect vehicle,” he said, for governments or oligarchs overseas “to funnel money to the president."

World Liberty has attracted well-heeled buyers: Almost 70% of the money raised came from wallets that spent at least $100,000, and more than 50% was buys of $1 million or more, according to a Reuters analysis of publicly available information on transactions.

While buyers of $WLFI gave their names to the venture, the identity of nearly all of those big spenders is hidden from public view by anonymous crypto wallets. Among a handful of buyers that Reuters was able to identify, several said they bought into the token because they believed Trump’s involvement would help it succeed as a business.

 

‘LET’S GO PURSUE IT’

World Liberty’s beginnings lie in the convergence of two obscure figures on the crypto scene and some of the most powerful people in American politics.

Folkman and Herro entered Trump circles via the family of New York real estate mogul Steve Witkoff, a longtime Trump friend who is now also his envoy to the Mideast.

The two crypto entrepreneurs had already collaborated on several companies together focused on making money from online ventures. Their business background includes past instances of dissolution, litigation and unpaid debts, according to corporate records, state filings and U.S. court documents. Early in his career, Folkman offered seminars on how to “date hotter girls.” 😂

Steve Witkoff said he was introduced to the pair by one of his sons, when speaking about how the deal came together on a crypto podcast hosted in September by the Trump family.

After meeting the two crypto businessmen and hearing them speak about the difficulties of getting credit in traditional finance, Witkoff said he thought of the Trumps. He set up a meeting with Donald Trump and his two oldest sons for Herro and Folkman to describe the opportunities of DeFi. The Trumps, Witkoff said, were smitten: “We said, ‘Let’s go pursue it.’”

Witkoff did not respond to requests for comment.

Despite Trump’s backing, token sales were slow at first. According to a U.S. regulatory filing by the company dated October 30 - around two weeks after World Liberty sales had begun - the venture’s total amount sold was only $2.7 million.

Then, on November 25, less than three weeks after Trump won the U.S. election, Justin Sun, a Hong Kong-based crypto entrepreneur who was fighting a U.S. securities fraud lawsuit, announced that he’d sunk $30 million into $WLFI - the amount the company said it needed to jumpstart operations.

“His amount was pretty meaningful at that point,” said “Ogle”, a World Liberty security adviser who only goes by that pseudonym and has appeared in video interviews with his face obscured by a bandana and sunglasses.

Sun has said his investment has since risen to $75 million. As well as its single-largest known investor, he has become an advisor to the project. Meanwhile, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in February paused its case against him, citing public interest.

Sun didn’t respond to a request for comment. The SEC declined to comment.

 

TAKING CHARGE

Initially, Herro and Folkman were listed as the “sole directors and members” of World Liberty Financial Inc, the main entity developing the platform, according to World Liberty’s terms and conditions, last updated in October.

On January 19 and 20 - the day of Trump’s inauguration - World Liberty raised almost $300 million in a frenzy of token sales, according to a Reuters analysis of blockchain data. Around that time, its website was updated to say WLF Holdco LLC now controlled World Liberty Financial Inc. And DT Marks DeFi LLC – Trump’s company – now held about 60% of WLF Holdco. It did not disclose who owns the rest.

The president’s son, Eric, also gained a seat on WLF Holdco’s board of managers.

Reuters could not ascertain the terms of any deals between Trump and his partners that led to the changes.

Angel, the Georgetown professor, said the corporate structure had put several layers of entities between Trump and World Liberty, protecting the president from any potential legal action should something go wrong. “He can say: ‘You can't sue me because I'm not involved’,” Angel said.

 

AN OUTLIER

The five largest DeFi lending platforms, as ranked by data site DefiLlama, all have governance tokens that give holders voting rights. But unlike World Liberty, those five platforms either allocated the majority of their governance tokens to be given away for free to users, sold them to venture capitalists in return for money to build the platform, or paid them to partners in return for building the project.

World Liberty governance tokens lack another critical feature of those issued by other DeFi platforms – the ability of token holders to vote for the platform to pay them a share of its profits. World Liberty has told token holders any vote to breach its existing deals with Trump and other backers would have no force, according to a 13-page description of the business released in October.

Folkman told a New York audience on March 18 that the company is working on three main products, including a “lend and borrow” market that would be announced soon and a personal finance application. World Liberty also said in March that it is planning to launch a stablecoin, known as USD1, that will be backed by assets such as U.S. Treasuries and redeemable for a dollar.

One company that World Liberty has collaborated with is Ondo Finance. The startup, founded in 2021 by former Goldman Sachs employees, lets users buy blockchain-based tokens backed by U.S. Treasuries and other assets such as money market funds, thereby earning interest. The two companies said in a statement that they would collaborate to “advance the adoption of tokenized real-world assets.”

“They're all in early stages, but we're exploring what they're doing at a very high level,” Nathan Allman, Ondo’s CEO, told Reuters.

While World Liberty has also used some of the money it raised to invest in other cryptocurrencies, it has yet to launch a DeFi platform.

Two software developers listed on World Liberty's website are based in Romania, according to their social media profiles. Octavian Lojnita was previously a developer at Dough Finance, a Herro and Folkman project that collapsed last year after being hacked, according to Lojnita's online profile and the publicly available source code of Dough. The online handle for a second developer at Dough matches that of Bogdan Purnavel, also at World Liberty.

Lojnita declined to discuss his involvement in World Liberty. Purnavel referred questions to World Liberty.

The coding for contracts posted to the project’s blockchain – a public-facing database – shows that World Liberty “appears to still be in development, with several functionalities not yet implemented or fully operational,” according to a review in late March by CertiK, a cybersecurity company that audits projects for security flaws.

[Nek grmi jako]

Još od godina vladavine Džordža V. Buša, liberali su u nizu teorija koje predviđaju političku budućnost SAD, a koje i danas možemo da čitamo na internetu, smatrali da će promenljiva demografija u Americi, odnosno više fakultetski obrazovanih profesionalaca i mladih neudatih žena i manjina, dovesti do dominacije demokrata. 

 

I kad čitate ta predviđanja, to svakako drži vodu i ima neki smisao, ali samo dok ta predviđanja, što bi rekao Majk Tajson, neko ne udari pesnicom u nos. 

 

Statistika iz novembarskih izbora pokazala je, zapravo, taj udarac direktno u nos, jer većina takvih u koje su nade polagali liberalni stratezi - uopšte nije ni glasala. Vrhunac ere hiperpolitike je iza nas, a izlaznost mladih na izborima u novembru je imala trend pada, jer sve analize pokazuju jedno te isto: oni su sve više razočarani u sve institucije - sudove, medije i političare - bez obzira na to sa kojom strankom su povezani. 

 

Manje od trećine mlađih od 30 godina veruje institucijama sistema, što je novi minimum koji koincidira sa činjenicom da mladi ljudi mahom na svu politiku gledaju kao na toksičnu oblast, oblik delokruga koji nije promenio svet, ali je uništio mnoge lične odnose.

 

A i kada su mladi glasali, pokazali su sklonost republikancima. Tramp je osvojio većinu onih mlađih od 26 godina, osim nebelih mladih žena - što je velika promena i u odnosu na 2016. i 2020. Pitanje je da li su ti koji su glasali za Trampa glasali za njega ili protiv statusa kvo, ali je očigledna paralela sa decom hipija iz šezdesetih koji su kasnije postali Reganovi japi.

 

Pa čak i kad gledamo ove proteste protiv Tesle, kao na ovom klipu:
 

Spoiler

 

videćemo da na njima upadljivo dominiraju sredovečni ljudi, a da onih mlađih od 25 godina skoro i da nema. Neko bi pomislio da je negde i logično da bojkot na Tesline automobile ne ide uz 20-godišnje bariste i ostale članove prekarijata, jer oni ne mogu ni da ih kupe, ali je njihov izostanak u smislu ideološkog stava itekako vidljiv.

 

A oni mladi levičari koje vidimo u podkastima ili nekim reportažama više liče na nekakve anarhiste nego na njihove nekadašnje kolege sa leve strane političkog spektra. Pa tako mnogi levičari mlađi od 30 godina danas jedva da pominju Medicare for All, povećanje minimalne zarade ili univerzalne socijalne programe. 

 

Oni danas vide Gazu kao majku svih uzroka, najvažnije bojno polje u intifadi protiv zapadnih kolonizatora. 

 

Sinoć gledam na YT neki skup levičara u organizaciji grupe Stop Cop City, i čujem jednu govornicu koja okupljenima savetuje da nauče kako su ukidanje policije i zagovaranje neurodivergencije u stvari - povezani. 

 

Zato nije ni čudo što na takvim mestima neće biti 20-godišnjaka, koji će radije pogledati na internetu naki ASMR video nego slušati takve budalaštine... A nije čudno ni to što na njima nema ni centrista i takozvanih normalaca.

Late Night USA

"Svi ovi super macho tipovi ljube dupe drugog čoveka"

Bill Maher smatra se demokratom, ali je nedavno oštro kritizirao svoju stranku. Međutim, moderatora ostavljaju hladnim pozivi da promeni stranu: ne želi Trumpov osobni kult.

 

Spoiler

The protagonist of "Real Time with Bill Maher" is actually a democrat. But lastly, the 69-year-old has shot above all against his own party, which he has repeatedly placed the responsibility of naivety, remoteness from reality and goodness in recent months.

Therefore, he is approached by Republicans and asked why admonishers did not want to join them, reports the New Yorker on his recent show. "Let me give you the short answer," says Maher: "Because I do not want to live in North Korea."

 

What is that? "Kim Jong-un has state writers who follow him everywhere, writing and applauding his ingenious ideas in a notebook," continues the late-night host: "Well, Republican – that's you."

Indeed, Trump’s party friends would compete with all kinds of crude advances for the president’s favor: North Carolina MP Addison McDowell has suggested, for example, to name Dulles International Airport near Washington after Trump. "It will be like other airports, except that there are only departures in the international terminal," Maher aliases.

 

"Virtuosis" Trump

There is also a law that demands to perpetuate Trump's face on Mount Rushmore, it continues. "Because like [George] Washington, he is a patriot, like Teddy Roosevelt he is a apostolate – and like Abraham Lincoln, he doesn't really help the theater scene in Washington D.C.."

 

The background: While Lincoln was shot dead in a theater, Trump took over the leadership of the Kennedy Center in the capital. The cultural institution has been struggling with headwinds ever since. And he actually doesn't care about the Kennedy Center, says Maher. It does not matter that a US president wants to lead such an institution personally.

But Trump's press spokesman Steven Cheung puts the crown on the whole thing: He considers the whole thing to be justified because Trump is "a virtuoso and his musical selection represents a brilliant range of dynamic colours, while others often paint in pale pastel tones".

 

"Super macho types kiss the A**** of a man"

"Republicans are now dancing like Trump, they call weapon systems [like the upcoming F-47 fighter jet after him, they even attract like him – with the typical suit with a tie, which is only available exclusively at Banana Republic: all these super-macho types kiss the A**** of another man," Maher etchs.

 

Some would even speak like Trump – "with the crazy, exaggerated exaggerated shadows." Minister of Economy Howard Lutnick said to the US tariffs: "This program is the most important thing that America has ever had." "Take the emancipation proclamation [to abolish slavery] and purchase of Louisiana," says Maher.

And that's not all: Trump's birthday is to become an official holiday, demanding the Republican Claudia Tenney. Party colleague Brandon Gill wants Trump's portrait to adorn the 100 dollar note in the future. "We don't do something like that here," the moderator summons the audience.

 

Respect "is not a one-way street"

"He is still in office: can we first wait for us to do what happens before we immortalize him on a postage stamp," continues: "If I admit that there is a Trump disturbance syndrome on the left, do you admit that this is also disturbed?"

To the people from the right who would tell him that they did not always agree with him, but would respect him for his counter towards the left and his honesty, Maher calls out: "This is not a one-way street: are you honest?"

As an example, the convinced atheist leads Trump's speech to Congress, in which the 78-year-old claimed that the state had "spent eight million dollars to make mice trans." "Do not have it," Maher makes it clear: "The eight million were for transgenic mice."

 

"When you hear 'cult', you twist the eyes"

It concerned "mice that has been genetically modified to investigate how hormone treatments affect human health." The fact that Trump misunderstood this is not the problem: "What worries about it is that no one from the president's environment dares to tell him that."

Only lack is that Trump is running around with open slit – and his party colleagues all went after him instead of making him aware of it. This scenario is that Trump adviser Steven Bannon criticized Trump-proclaimed Chief Justice Amy Coney Barrett for not showing enough "admiration" in the Congressional speech.

"That's not North Korean," says Maher sarcastically: "I know, my republican friends: when you hear 'cult', you're turning your eyes." In a cult, one is told to turn away from friends and family because they could still stop one. "That's why [Scientology disciples] does not speak to Tom Cruise with his own child."

 

"Presidents are given two terms. No more»

Similarly, it is with America: "We say to our closest friend in the whole world: Do you know what? F*** Canada – without any special reason.» He did not know what "Fox News" presenter Jesse Waters had thought about an attack on the neighboring country twelve weeks ago. "And now his message is to Canada: "Because of the fact that they do not want us to take over, I want an invasion."

Maher cannot understand this: "Canada does not threaten us. For God's sake: your flag is a leaf. Even [podcaster] Joe Rogan, a Trump voter, said: "Why do we get upset about Canada? That's stupid." Okay, Maga people: This is called thinking independently.»

 

Recession odds are rising as Trump’s trade war escalates, Goldman Sachs says

White House aide Peter Navarro said Sunday that he expects President Donald Trump’s tariffs to bring in $6 trillion in revenue in the next decade, which could amount to the largest tax hike in US history.

 

 

Wow, jbg, kad ce to da stigne do mozga MAGA glasaca. Tramp je car, jedino on moze navesti Magase, republikance i hilbilije svih boja da placaju ogromne taxe, i da na kraju pitaju, moze li jos.

 

Quote

Navarro, Trump’s senior counselor for trade and manufacturing, insists it’s not a tax increase but a tax cut — echoing the Trump administration’s repeated belief that tariffs will be paid not by American consumers but by businesses in other countries or the countries themselves.

 

MIslim, ne treba uopste da se diskutje o ovom, videcemo za dva dana. A u narednih nedelja i meseci slobodno trziste ce i samo pokazati. Ili ce Tramp biti u pravu ili ce kao kad zestoko pogresi poceti da laze i na kraju ce reci da on nije tako mislio, nije ni uveo tarife, tarife su bad, Bajden je uveo tarife.

 

Jedva cekam Liberation Day.

Pošto sam se nekako prepoznao, nemam ja iluzije da bi Izraelci živeli (uopšte, bilo kako) u palestinskoj državi nego da  imaju svoju državu je ono što smatram da pripada svakom narodu pa naravno i Palestincima. Ne mislim da treba da imaju državu od jezera do mora ili kako već to zovu, taj nacionalistički i antijevrejski moto, pokret, šta god.

 

Samo, sabijeni u ono parče zemlje (Gaza), to baš nije zdravo ni za njih a vrv ni za Izrael koji je odmah tu. Rešenje je očito u tome da se svi odreknu nečega, nekog sopstvenog interesa a koliko izgleda već 100 godina nikakav kompromis tamo niko nije spreman da učini.

 

Čisto perspektive radi, prenaseljenost bi bila problem i da su tamo Jehovini svedoci jer bi u nekom trenutku postalo neizdrživo i nemoguće da sve više ljudi živi na tako malom prostoru, a kamo li tako militarizovano društvo. A to je samo jedan problem i to manji u ovom trenutku. 

Procene su da je 1967, kada je Izrael osvojio  Gazu, bilo izmedju 350,000- 450,000 stanovnika. Danas je negde oko 2.3 miliona, a sve vreme se prica o nekom genocidu. Ali nije Izrael odlucio da pojas bude prenaseljen.

Za poredjenje, svetska populacija 1967 je bila 3.47 biliona, a sada je 8.2.

Ili recimo Izrael, oko 2.8 mil 1967, danas se priblizava na 10 mil. Ali 1967, manje od 300k u Izraelu su bili arapi, danas je to 2.1 mil. Iako je Izrael imao velike skokove u imjgraciji jevreja proterivanih iz arapskih zemalja, a pogotovo sa raspadom sovjetskog saveza.

Postoji tema "Bliski Istok" za pricu o Izralu i Palestini.

Ako je tacno ovo sto Elon prica da su nasli veliki broj ilegalaca koji su usli zadnjih par godina na Social security I Medicaid a da su neki I glasali, bice da je jos jedna teorija zavere ispala istina.

Veliko AKO. Elon je mnogo lazi izrekao do sada, a doveo je ne inspektora ni policajca nego drugara milijardera da nam pokaze powerpoint slide... Prezentacija napravljena u PowerPointu, dakle, ISTINA (dokazi nisu potrebni  kada pokazes bar graf)...  

 

Jedan interesantan detalj koji govori da je ovaj program napravio neki drugi "strucnjak za efikasnost" u pogodi cijoj administraciji:   

In summary, the EBE program was initiated in October 2017 as an administrative measure to simplify SSN issuance for eligible non-citizens.

Kao sto rekoh ako je istina, program je mozda napravljen 2017te (iako nije sigurno Tramp kontrolisao) I bio je namenjen legalnim imigrantima I nosiocima legalnih viza, ali nije on pustio milione preko granice (obrati paznju na "eligable non-citizens"). I onda dozvolio da ilegalci imaju beneficije.

Legalni imigranti nemaju pravo na SS ili Medicaid, jer inace mogu da izgube vize. 

Sve vise deluje da je bio namerni proces. Bio onaj iz Venecuele influencer koji je na Tiktoku objasnjavao kako da uzimaju kes od drzave, I kako da se usele u tudje kuce...sad je nazad u Venecueli. Docekan kao heroj...

Mislite o tome.

Pa nisam ni pomislio da bi Trump mogao napraviti gresku...  Ni Elon and friends... Bezgresni kao uvijek. 

 

I postoji jedna ogromna i bitna razlika: ono sto ti zoves ilegalcima su lawfully present immigrants... Ali ko ce na to obracati paznju, jeftinije je ostaviti ih da crknu bez medicinske pomoci...
