Is Joe biting at the champ to get yet more kickbacks, by getting ready to set up more money-laundering schemes and projects in Ukraine? Sure sounds like it.

This appointment makes perfect sense. The Pritzker family fortune is based on fees and participation in the laundering and investment of cash derived by the Mafia from criminal activities. This was followed in recent years by rich profits from participation in the looting of banks through subprime lending. Is there any reason to doubt that Penny Pritzker will assure that “The Big Guy” gets a cut of the “economic recovery” action in Ukraine?

The early life tells you everything you need to know. Every single time.

Are you kidding? The billions we’ve sent to Ukraine for the war will be small change compared to the trillions we’ll be obliged to cough up for the “rebuilding” of Big Israel. The aptly-named Larry Fink has already met with Zelenskyy to lay the groundwork.
