Tell me more about this Xanax thing
When you take into account that Brunel was killed in the same way, it gets even stranger. Surprised Maxwell is alive.

So, basically, he was a sleazy scumbag who understood how other sleazy scumbags like himself operate? The obvious choice, was he? What could possibly go wrong?
Heâd previously had to resign from the cabinet TWICE for impropriety, yet apparently he was the best person to represent this country in the US?
I cannot believe that Starmer had no other choice, yet now decides to distance himself from that choice by pretending he didnât realise what an mendacious little bastard he is.

I agree he may have had choices and picked the easiest or lazy choiceâŚ

Thanks for this. So the bitcoin scams are to prop up Russian economy. No wonder itâs the same people pushing it.

You are welcome.
But what are you going to have for breakfast tomorrow ? I might be having a 2-3 knekkebrød.
At a school where he was hired by Bill Barrâs father. So, the man who was AG at the time of Epsteinâs very suspicious death, a man who was similarly connected to Iran-Contra, was additionally connected to Epstein through his father who hired him for a position he wasnt qualified for that turned out to be his launching pad for the high profile career heâd later go into? There is something fishy and CIA smelling about that school

I need to develop a crush on you like this Jagland guy toward Epstein before sharing my breakfast details.
You said the Norwegian princess talked like a 14yo but this guy wasnât acting that different. Itâs like reading emails from a long distance couple.

Yes !
It isâŚ
Yeah.
Anyway, Norwegian Ăkokrim (economic crime unit) is now building a case against Terje Rød-Larsen, Mona Juul and probably soon; Thorbjørn Jagland.
These are not nobodies.
Its kind of bigger than the Crown princess nonsense (which i will post tomorrow)

Let me frighten the living shit our of you and tell you exactly who thisâŚJagland is.
A real nobody !
Former party leader of the Norwegian Labour Party. Former Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Norway. Former Head of the Nobel Comitte (famous for giving the prize to Obama that most others thought a bit unwise), former Head of the Council of Europe.
He has more titles, more roles. The above just the most important
Edit: forgot to mention that he has been Foreign Minister AND president of the Norwegian parliament as well. Maybe relevant.
The wiki is a fun read. He is the haughtiest man in public life in Norway and widely considered an embarrasment. But that was before the Epstein scandal.

Yeah this one is big. It completely reframes the last 30 years of praise of the merits of the Oslo accords. Iâve heard Palestinians talk about it as being fatally flawed but Epsteinâs Mosad links opens the door to that being suspected of being by design.

Thanks, I donât really follow politics in Europe anymore except the UK, so please forgive my ignorance. Interesting that he didnât finish his undergrad degree but went on to hold high positions virtually by doing politics from 18 years old. So⌠a successful Pierre Poilievre.
Also the type that makes up the bulk of the upper echelon in modern Communist Parties in Vietnam and China. Same flavour no matter which country.

Its going to be interesting. The coverage of it in Norwegian media is massive and extremely detailed. Iâll report interesting details later on.

He was a charming guy with good opinions back in the day. Worked really hard in the party system, well liked, so not a populist as such.
But he was limited and often said and made famously stupid things/decisions.
He cost Labour an election they won with a silly ultimatum and more.
Well, the obvious choice is to appoint someone from within the diplomatic service. Thatâs what youâd normally do.
I think Starmer was trying to be too clever. He knows Trump is basically a toddler who needs handling with extreme care, so someone like Mandelson, who has previous experience of that world, who Trump knows and trusts, and has moved in the circles Trump moves in makes some sense.
But by appointing someone like that, you are also opening yourself up to some kind of scandal or intrigue down the line. I think Starmer is playing the odds - Mandleson can help with that relationship, and manage this orange lunatic, and hopefully we can get through a few years without the whole thing blowing up in our faces.

Yeah, I can kind of get the argument for appointing a smarmy, odious piece of shit to appease another smarmy odious piece of shit, but in what world was that ever going to turn out well?
