"Nichts, wirklich nichts qualifizierte den Immobilienentwickler, Rechtsanwalt und verurteilten Steuerhinterzieher Charles Kushner für einen Botschafterposten in Frankreich. Das gab Kushner selbst bei seiner Anhörung vor US-Senatoren im vergangenen Mai zu: Er verstehe nicht viel von Frankreich, sagte er damals, »weder etwas von Kunst noch von französischen Weinen, aber ich verstehe etwas von Geschäften«."
"Kleptokratie" heißt übrigens: "Herrschaft der Diebe".

In diesem Fall gilt tatsächlich: Was die einen mehr haben (die Trump-Familie), haben die anderen weniger (alle anderen):

Is anyone still deluded enough to think that #Trump isn't a #Russian asset?
For half a century the #US president could be bought be US #specialinterest and #lobbying, but even then it was in the interests of the US.
Now the #POTUS has been outright bought by #Putin and it's clear to anyone paying attention.
This is what #cleptocracy looks like.

Great episode of the weekly Jon Stewart show with #Nobel peace prize winner Maria Ressa, a Filippino-American journalist who was incarcerated in the Philippines she brings a lot of knowledge and wisdom about #authorianism, the importance of supporting fact-based #journalism, the tactics employed by #socialmedia and what we can do to resist the rise of the current #cleptocracy brought to us by the #broligarchy. It’s by design and we can reverse engineer it. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-weekly-show-with-jon-stewart/id1583132133?i=1000698048626

Even worse than our descent into #Authoritarianism and #Cleptocracy is our worse than head-in-the-sand approach to the #ClimateCatastrophy. https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2025/01/climate-models-earth/681207/?gift=D1_ctPq5UQvRq8IlRLZQx6eEQz78FaJNIUzl6Hut5XY&utm_source=copy-link&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=share

@Baxter this reeks of #cleptocracy and #hubris - the money we pay through tax and levies, which is meant to benefit us all, instead being used improve international oil and gas conglomerates margins is vile and offensive.

@connor @micchiato in a hypothetical scenario where#Trump wins, #USA devolves into a fascist #cleptocracy based on extreme #Christianity and Bibi, with Trump’s help erases Palestinians-what will you then say? Whose fault will it be or will the ‘antiestablishment’ sentiment just continue on autopilot?

Yes, you have some valid points, that there are fundamental underlying problems, but the fact you will not even discuss some basic measures to stop the IMMEDIATE sale of deadly guns, to save 1000's of lives makes you an apologist for the NRA.
We have Murdoch Media in Australia. We have #StochasticTerrorists #cleptocracy #billionaires #christofacists but we don't have people armed to the teeth and that is why we don't have 1000's dead kids.
Trump repealed laws that prohibited the sales of guns to the mentally ill. There's one thing USA could easily do. -
@aljazeera Evidence shows that high regulation fosters corruption: https://blogs.worldbank.org/developmenttalk/do-more-rules-lead-more-corruption-evidence-using-firm-level-survey-data-developing
TL:DR: Many folks who might consider payoffs bad reconsider when the payoff gets them through the red tape that would cost more time and money. (aside: I would completely avoid a #cleptocracy like #putin 's)
In watching this #aljazeera series, this "rule" seems corollary, where the sanctions against #zimbabwe acts like red-tape/regulation that drives these folks to normalize corruption.
