Natuurlijk Rudy. En de onderhandelingen stopten ook hypothetisch op 7 november 2016 zonder enig probleem. Die Russen begrepen dat wel.
En Mnuchin die geen bevredigende antwoorden had op vragen van de Dems daarover tijdens die Congress-briefing.quote:

President Donald Trump purports to hate “fake news” but he seems to have no problem with fake photos. At least that’s what Gizmodo discovered when it started carefully looking at the images on Trump’s official Facebook and Instagram accounts and discovered photos of the president that make him look thinner and more built. And, yes, the president’s infamous obsession with the size of his hands strikes again as the photos also make a point of lengthening the president’s fingers. Gizmodo found at least three instances of altered photos published since October 2018, dismissing any possible suggestion that it was a one-off event. Whether the photos were edited using Facetune or Photoshop or any other tool isn’t clear, but it does seem obvious they were at least slightly altered.
Altijd weer die obsessie met ze handjes.
Pakken wat je pakken kunt, zal Trump denken.

Sure, you can have a lawyer present bc you're a UAC (meaning no parent or guardian in the U.S. capable of taking care and custody). But, hah hah, having no parent or guardian present in the U.S. capable of taking care/custody disqualifies you from asylum. https://t.co/z8A0eD3OWa reageer retweet
twitter:gabrielmalor twitterde op dinsdag 22-01-2019 om 05:04:12 The CA minor bar is pretty bad and reason alone to oppose this bill. But the changes to whether an application can be found to be frivolous applies to ALL applicants, and it's completely unreasonable. reageer retweet
twitter:gabrielmalor twitterde op dinsdag 22-01-2019 om 05:08:28 The consequence for filing an application found to be frivolous is permanent ineligibility for any benefits under the INA. It would be one thing if timeliness had a clear-cut line, but it doesn't. It ends up a judgment call, and oh, BTW, the Act makes it unreviewable. https://t.co/tWTZ5YrreV reageer retweet

Hun sancties wetgeving zegt dat enkel bedrijven waar ownership minstens 50% is onder de sancties vallen. Deripaska kon eender wat doen, de VS heeft niets te zeggen over wat hij met z'n geld of aandelen doet. Het resultaat is dat ownership nu minder dan 50% is. Dus moet de VS de sancties tegen de bedrijven opheffen, volgens hun eigen wetgeving.

De feitelijke situatie lijkt anders die op papier.
En verder is de Senaat niet geinformeerd over de honderden miljoenen die hij cadeau krijgt.

Ja natuurlijk gaat Rudy het uitleggen aan Petrus. Uitleggen kan hij heel goed. Echt. Dat zien we elke week weer.quote:Rudy Giuliani to New Yorker: "I am afraid it will be on my gravestone: 'Rudy Giuliani: He lied for Trump.' Somehow, I don't think that will be it. But if it is, so what do I care? I'll be dead. I figure I can explain it to St. Peter." https://t.co/f1DRUltSRf

Cadeau krijgt? Voor zover ik weet betaalt de VS hem geen cent.quote:

Met meer dan 50% ownership had hij de touwtjes in handen, wat had men verwacht, dat hij zichzelf failliet zou maken?

Mag ik je vandaag weer eens irriteren?
Nee, dat er geen geheime addendums zouden zijn waarvan de Senaat niets wist.quote:
