The unremovable president of the Democratic Republic of the Congo has amassed so much money in 16 years of rule that the country is too poor to hold an election on his successor.

There is only one proper way to normalize the troll: to multiply him by a coefficient that will adjust his magnitude to 1.

Germans in Turkey

dimanche 23 juillet 2017 à 02:00

Germany has warned its citizens to stay away from Turkey, where they might be falsely accused and used as bargaining chips. Germany will also retaliate in other ways.
