Counterpoint: you cannot ethically earn a billion dollars, and billionaires should not exist.

In recent days, there have been many appeals and signals regarding the setup for tomorrow in Moscow in connection with our Ukrainian long-range sanctions. The principle of symmetry in our actions is well known and has been clearly communicated to the Russian side. An additional argument for Ukraine in determining our position has always been the resolution of one of the key humanitarian issues of this war – namely, the release of prisoners of war. Red Square is less important to us than the lives of Ukrainian prisoners who can be brought home. That is why today, within the framework of the negotiating process mediated by the American side, we received Russia’s agreement to conduct a prisoner exchange in the format of 1,000 for 1,000. A ceasefire regime must also be established on May 9, 10, and 11. Ukraine is consistently working to bring its people home from Russian captivity. I have instructed our team to promptly prepare everything necessary for the exchange. I thank the President of the United States and his team for their productive diplomatic involvement. We expect the United States to ensure that the Russian side fulfills these agreements. Glory to Ukraine!

DR (the Danish Broadcasting Corporation) has interviewed Cliff Stanley from Nevada, who over the past two days has attracted major attention in Nuuk after offering 200,000 dollars in exchange for support for making Greenland American. He plans to remain in Nuuk until May 19, when the special U.S. envoy Jeff Landry — independently of Cliff’s trip — is planning a controversial visit to the Greenlandic capital. And if it turns out that Greenlanders — contrary to his expectations — have no interest at all in becoming an American state, he says he already has a backup plan. “I will do my best as a human being. To give them this, if they want it. And if they don’t want it, that’s okay. Then I’ll just go to Canada and see if they want to.” —DR

AOC: “There’s a certain level of wealth and accumulation that is unearned. You can’t earn a billion dollars. You just can’t earn that. You can get market power, you can break rules, you can abuse labor laws, you can pay people less than what they’re worth, but you can’t earn that”

În aprilie 2023, când Marius Lăzurcă își complimenta vechiul prieten, Mihail Neamțu avea deja mai bine de un an de când făcea propagandă rusă pe față despre Ucraina. În ultimii ani, asocierea cu Mihail Neamțu, în absența unei delimitări clare și apăsate, a devenit dpmdv total compromițătoare. Câteva luni mai târziu de la urare, nu multe, Neamțu cerea ca românii să "verse sânge pentru salvarea românilor din Bucovina de Nord" - să îi salvăm de ceea ce numea zilele trecute "hunta fascistă a lui Zelenski", să ne înțelegem, nu de rușii care îi bombardează și îi ucid pe front de trei ani. Poate că nu este responsabil dl Lăzurcă de ce a spus Neamțu în anul de război care trecuse până atunci (sau de ce a spus Aligică), dar au trecut incă doi ani de la imaginea asta și încă nu a existat nicio delimitare de delirul radical ticălos al lui Neamțu. Iar un răspuns de genul "nu am știut" nu ar face decât să ne întrebăm dacă mai e ceva ce nu știe Marius Lăzurcă despre oamenii care îl înconjoară și îi recomandă (cum ar fi Gabriel Elefteriu).
