The fact that his campaign in Florida is funded by ultra-rich Cuban immigrants doesn't really make him look good, does it?

Why? What’s wrong with Cubans?

They were once refugees from Communism, shouldn't he be expelling them up north before Venezuelans from another state?

Who actually cares about Venezuelan immigrants in USA? And rich Cuban former immigrants probably have more in common with American upper-middle class than poor Cuban immigrants at this stage?

The situation is getting very dire here in Hungary, a LOT of venues are closing down because local governments are out of money and the heating is too expensive for the winter. This includes sport venues. I am not sure how much longer can indoor sports hold on in Hungary. For example, Vác is one of the strongest Hungarian women's handball clubs and their arena will be closed down. That's a club which is currently playing in the European League. 

 

Sports, culture, our education system, everything is collapsing. Orbán's house of cards is falling apart, we are clearly the weakest, most unstable European Union state economically, we will be the first to truly go down due to the huge recession that is about to hit the world.

Belarussian Army is less than 20,000 soliders in active duty. They have no assets to participate in any active military campaign right now (other than serve as cannon fodder). And what's worse, sending troops to fight for Putin might be one thing that actually sweeps Lukashenka from power because the same army would then be missing to combat any public unrest within Belarus.

    • Yeah. It was pretty bad that they cancel the contract with the original creative director after 7 months of work. I feel like politics, in this particular context of the changing of prime minister and the cabinet, may had caused changes in organizational decisions regarding the Sea Games including the direction of the opening ceremony. 
    • That's what I figured.  Wouldn't be a proper lead up to an Olympics without some media-fueled fearmongering.
