The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Putin wants Trump, bigly.

Is Putin trying to influence our elections?

He is according to the U.S. government, which warns that Russia is trying to influence the election so that Trump wins (which is what multiple investigations concluded happened in 2016, too), like by cozying up to right-wing influencers.

Putin and Russian officials don’t appear to be using hacking into campaigns or voting machines. (The government has accused Iran of that.) U.S. officials warn that Russia’s attempts to influence the election are getting more sophisticated and harder to detect. The Justice Department indicted two Russian journalists here in America for illegally funneling funds to promote its agenda on social media. The government says Russia was effectively paying big name right-wing American influencers to disseminate Russian propaganda on a YouTube channel.


Trump is putty in Putin's hands.

So many reasons to NOT vote for Trump.
