How many votes does it take to kick Turkey out of NATO?
I’d like to bring this question up again. While they’re big and ugly and this may help scare off some common enemies, do we really need a pro-Russian muslim quasi-dictatorship in our friendly community? Especially since their main beef with the rest of us at the moment is that they hate free speech.

Hasan Ibragimov, the nephew of Ramzan Kadyrov, who allegedly organized the gang rape of a Russian TV reporter in a restaurant in occupied Melitopol, has a history of bad behavior.

The logic behind their terrorism, is “if it's not mine, it will not be anyone's”.

Listening to the speech of Russia's most famous shoe salesman, I am absolutely convinced that schools should stop teaching history and focus on psychology.

The problem is that history is about facts and psychology consists only of conjectures.

...which could be solved by more focus on psychology.

I'm an hour into his speech. Still waiting for the tractor production numbers. Although it's quite hard to concentrate. I wouldn't want to be in the audience, trying to stifle a yawn.

You can see why he's so good at judo...he moves around so much, you think he's talking about one subject then he changes to another, and then he's back to the first. It makes one very dizzy. I bet he sold a lot of shoes.

Game theory for rational behaviour, behavioral finance for irrational but there's something left: extraordinary popular delusions and the madness of crowds. You won't understand it without knowing the history. You won't understand Trump derangement syndrome of some of our friends without knowing what happened in Germany some 90 years ago.

It's caused by sciatica. Got to keep moving. 
He shouldn't  be doing judo at his age.

I know people who voted for Trump. And I know bearish. I understand both and respect both. Ok, maybe 'respect' is pushing it a bit!
