Elon Musk has spent more money on American elections in the last two years than George Soros has in his entire life.

The people demanded it and who am I to deny them?
My email to the editors of Econometrica:

Congratulations to my friend @LulaOficial on his electoral victory.
Democracy and multilateralism have won in Brazil.
Europe’s partnership with Brazil is thriving.
We will remain by your side for the years to come.
Together we will keep working closely for free and open trade.
A rules-based global order.
And strong ambitions for our climate.

Jared Kushner does not have any security clearances.
So his claim about divulging classified information, would mean he is admitting to illegal access of classified information….
Jared Kushner’s attorneys at Clare Locke have sent Vanity Fair a formal demand letter disputing the story and demanding its removal.
It can be very difficult for current and former intelligence customers to pursue defamation cases, not because they face a different legal standard, but because proving their case may require classified evidence they are not authorized to disclose.
I’m not making a prediction about whether Kushner will or won’t file suit…just pointing out that it’s more challenging for him than for most.

the Serbia result is actually very interesting.
the 140 seats won by student opposition against Vučić's nationalist party will be taken up not by students, but by academics, professors & public figures from pre-chosen pool of 250 experts, selected by student plenums.

A very consequential fallout of the students' victory in Serbia is that Russian intelligence will have to find a new home for its hundreds of spies parked at, or using support from the security apparatus of, or even using passports issued by, Serbia.

The election campaign in Brazil was intense, and many around the world closely followed its developments, key moments, and statements. For us in Ukraine, it is important that Brazil remains active in international affairs and continues to contribute to the effective protection of human rights, the rights of peoples, and the rights of states. We thank Brazil for its unwavering support for Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity. We look forward to expanding our cooperation and congratulate President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva @LulaOficial on his remarkable election results.

Caralho, esse é sem dúvidas um dos vídeos mais espetaculares da história do Brasil!
Milhões e milhões de pessoas na Avenida Paulista comemorando a reeleição do Lula.
A ESQUERDA BRASILEIRA É UM FENÔMENO!

De dónde sacó votos Lula para darla vuelta?
1) Subió la participación, del 79,3% al 80,9%. Hubo 1,3 millones de cotantes más, casi todos a Lula. Subió casi todo en el Sur y Sudeste.
2) Bajaron fuerte el voto en blanco y nulo (del 4,5% al 3%). Hubo unos 900 mil votos menos en blanco. Casi todo fue a Lula. La baja fue más pronunciada en el Nordeste.
3) Voto de terceras fuerzas. Hay que verlo más en detalle, pero a priori sería algo así como que gran parte del voto de Cury fue a Lula, mientras que el voto de Caiado y Renan Santos fue aprox 40% a Lula, 50% a Flavio y el resto a blanco-nulo.

Agora o Mark Zuckerberg não poderá pisar no Brasil por pelo menos 4 anos por medo de ser preso. Os crimes desse homem não serão esquecidos.

Day 1706 of my 3 day war. Vucic lost in Serbia, Bolsonaro lost in Brazil and Donald couldn't rig a casino he owns, never mind the midterms.
I remain a master strategist.

Lula gigante. Le ganó no solo a Bolsonaro, sino a Meta y toda la campaña de Trump en su contra.
