About Governance ...
... and understanding Russia. This is in regards to an absolutely ridiculous tempest in the teacup (hysteria, really) because of the piece of some opportunist who was dissatisfied with Dmitriev signing an agreement with the US side on ...
The signing of a pact to continue desiging a tunnel across the Russia-US Bering Strait will take place on Friday, a Russian presidential envoy said. Speaking at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, Kirill Dmitriev said Moscow and Washington continue to discuss the "Putin-Trump Tunnel” underwater tunnel project to connect the two countries. "This will be one of the major infrastructure projects between our countries. As for the tunnel, we will have news tomorrow — we are signing an agreement to continue the design of the tunnel," he said.
A few points immediately.
1. Russia IS NOT an ungovernable country such as the US. Russian government and Presidential authority are very serious and executive discipline on the highest political level is strict. I repeat, Russia is not the US in governance.
2. I don't care what any of YOU think personally about Dmitriev but if you do not understand that he is Presidential Envoy and cannot sneeze without permission from the President--I have a bridge for you to sell, cash only. Learn basic facts about Russian government.
3. The design (not building) of this tunnel was in progress for a while now, while the idea was floating around since XIX century (the bridge). William Gilpin, first Governor of Colorado was dreaming about it.
4. It is a magnificent idea which may have an enormously positive economic impact on American and Eurasian (with the exception of Europe) economies.
5. Opinions of some bloggers who continuously push this idiotic idea about "different towers of Kremlin" and that there is constantly some danger of coup. Wake the fuck up--the sixth column is a reality (e.g. Solovyov, Simonyan and other dumbfucks from media) but their real impact and power is near zero. A lot of talk and BS. Most of them are under the proper care of FSB. And anybody who brings up Bolotnaya as applied to today's Russia I have only one thing to say--you obviously are sleeping under the stone--two different countries. Here is the latest:
Bottom four are not contestants at all. So, if you want to continuously reside in the FUD BS, reading all kinds of infoshysters who are nothing more than incompetent and ignorant opportunists pushing on you hollow beaten to death clichés', be my guest. But what do I know.

Not That It Really Matters ...
... if he is happy or not, he completed selling the US out to Israel and now he is merely an errand boy for Bibi.
On Sunday, Israel launched airstrikes in Beirut's southern suburbs. Iran retaliated with its own strike on Israel, which led to Monday morning's attack by Israel on Iran. U.S. President Donald Trump earlier told a Fox News Channel reporter that he wanted the Iranians to stop firing missiles and return to the negotiating table. He also said that Israel's strikes in Lebanon earlier Sunday were not coordinated with the U.S. and "I'm not happy about it." A senior U.S. official said Trump had called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to urge him not to retaliate immediately for the Iranian missile attack. The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity to describe a private phone call, said that Trump believed he had convinced Netanyahu to wait.
Trump has other than "urging" instruments at his disposal--he can express "grave concern", he can also say that he is angry, he even can lodge a protest--none of it matters, because the United States is Israel's slap bitch and Trump will do as told by Israel. This is his greatest real estate deal in history--he sold the whole country to Israel and its interests.
