      There was recently a report from NPR about kushner and his dealings in albania.

      She compares her investigation to opening a set of Russian matryoshka dolls, one after another. She’s discovered several of the shell companies share the same address in Amsterdam and that each of them is worth a single euro.

      They lead to the smallest matryoshka doll, a company named Interroyal BV, established with 18,000 euros in 2004 by a Russian citizen named Nikita Maximovich Vinogradov and a Bulgarian citizen named Zoya Georgieva Gyurova. Cela says each controls 25% of the company, but she says she hasn’t been able to track either individual down. Neither has a public profile, but, on paper at least, she says the mysterious pair owns hundreds of millions of dollars’ worth of Albanian property

      Well you see, it benefits the ultra rich and corrupt politicians while causing more harm to the poor and middle class. What is more sensible than that?

        Helps anonymize all bribes too. Like the ones that control all of our politicians. As if our republic wasnt already on fire, this pours more gasoline all over it and sticks knives in everyones back. Happy end of the republic day everyone.

      This is just extending the rights the CIA has to private businesses so it’s more just leveling the playing field and allowing global Capital to directly to ops instead of needing to use government apparatus to do so.

      Well you see, now they themselves can spin up shell companies legally without having to be on the hook personally when said company does reprehensible shit.
