@Hawkmoon @Green_Footballs I would need some persuading that even he would set out to flush $44bn, leveraged, down the sewer.

@AnnemarieBridy The letter is nearly illiterate as well. How does someone like that end up with his kind of employment?

@kolya @openculture They didn't want to get to the bottom and find squatters occupying it; best to get it covered first.
@demvoter @mariyadelano You haven't heard? Prigozhin was working for the CIA. Seriously, would hundreds of well-padded virgins pay $8/mo to Elon Musk to lie about a thing like that?
