The presidential elections in Romania are the decisive place where the future of European policy is formed.

If the pro-Russian candidate wins, this will definitely have influence on all Europe. These elections are also important for Moldova.

Trump's crypto venture is fleecing his supporters.

80% of the new or small-time crypto investors in Trump’s coin have been hit with big losses.

Meanwhile, his team is making millions off the coin’s trading fees, which stay stable even when its value goes down.

It’s a grift.

Why not mention the obvious appearance of quid pro quo here (Paramount needs the Trump admin to approve a merger deal)? Why not remind executives that a future Congress might be interested in investigating potential corruption?
