Putin made the comment during an economic forum in Moscow on November 20, 2019. “‘Thank God,’ Putin said, ’thank God nobody is accusing us anymore of interfering in U....
This combination of self-pity and arrogance, which afflicts most people from time to time, proves especially toxic in the minds of perk-barrel politicians. It can also induce ethical nearsightedness. Don’t officeholders who take favors ever pause to think about the motives of their benefactors? The motives of business leaders who provide basketball tickets to basketball fans (e.g. Mobil lobbyist Barney Skladany to Rep. Bob Mrazek) or 2,600 steaks to Texas carnivores (Chevron Corp....

Umesh, a young male, died Tuesday evening with zookeepers letting the young bull’s family spend some time with the body, as elephants are known to mourn their dead.
