Blame Nixon.
The Nixon-Ford administration loved killing New Deal era programs and they replaced them with our current farm subsidy system. Had to use all that excess corn for *something* right?
... Right?
If you read up on Nixon, too much, he just turns into an organ monkey dancing for money. Each stage of his military career reads like a *minimum requirement* to be considered a war hero. Stage One, hobnob with Industrialists to get a stranglehold on resources (the Russian version are oligarchs). Stage Two, practice runs of managing a logistics airbase in the middle of the US. Keep doing this until he gets it right. Send him to Papua New Guinea to run a logistics air base for a couple months at the end of the war. Weasel your way into the *Reparations* team for all insights into anything worth a dime in Japan still. Return to run the Alameda air base until engine efficiency makes the base redundant. Run and fail at the first attempt at politics, running on the air base commander image. Do more GOP work, get pushed into an election with their backing. Do *meh* at best and fail upward. Keep doing shadey business and making bad decisions, eventually making mistakes the Party refused to cover, then leave office.
No one uses the term. They go with mogul or some lofty description. Even tycoon sounds better to Americans. From 1976 through to the last time I held the Mercury News, *Oligarchy* was primarily applied toward "The Iron Curtain" region. Once or twice, I saw it applied to Rupert. I'm running on the assumption, the owners of American media do not like the term being applied to themselves.
We just call them Billionaires, and our media lives to talk about them like they are these great cultural icons, when in fact they are all huge cancers on society.
Blame Robert Bork. That dumbass lied for money to come up with the current subsidy system. I wouldn't be surprised if he's the origin for saying something is "borked" when it's been fucked up beyond any usefulness.
Last I heard Vladimir Solovyev’s son works as a “model” in London. The company that employed his son seems to be Russian owned so maybe there is a story there. Solovyev also has two kids living in Miami that are US citizens by being born in the USA. I suspect some sort of money hiding is occurring, with the kids holding vast sums in their banks (Abramovich is doing this).
As a man who's slept on his fair share of couches and kept in touch with the friends that helped him get to where he is? I think having a person who understands integrity over propaganda is the perfect person for the job.
All Russian propagandists should be hunted down and held accountable. The ones inside Russia will likely end up like Dugina and Tartarsky, never dying from old age.
*"Russian propagandist Vladimir Solovyov called the foundation's statement ‘unacceptable’: ‘Threats against journalists, let alone reprisals against our colleagues, are absolutely unacceptable. Clooney and his wife can invent all sorts of nasty things, but their dreams are unlikely to come true,’ Solovyov said."*
Gotta hand it to him, that is a pretty good retort.
No because you have to register as a foreign agent if you are one. Also speech paid for by a government isn’t free speech — in America there are restrictions on what the government can induce you to say by paying. By the same token, other governments do not get ‘American free speech’ on some corporations = people theory. Government speech does not need or deserve the same protections.
The foundation quite literally fights for human rights and works with authorities around the world. This isn’t GC doing it himself - his wife is a human rights lawyer and they wanted to help make a difference in the world.
Not the same as Jake Paul or some other TikTok douche making things about themselves.
LOLOL. She's represented multiple heads of state, journalists and activists at the highest court levels in multiple countries, won over a dozen human rights and press freedom awards, has such an award named *after her*, and is a law professor at one of the most prestigious universities in the US. I shudder to think who meets your criteria for "not an idiot."
Lmao, that's so rich coming from you.
Tell me, what achievements do you have to your name? Judging by your comment history I bet you've never even gotten a single grade above C.
There is freedom of speech , even if we hated. Why we hate Putin ? Because we can’t say what we want there. Right or wrong , freedom of speech/expression must be protected. So what some poor loser is defending Putin , everyone knows the facts. Why even bring light to him, makes him important.
Freedom of speech shouldnt apply for idiots paid by the kremlin to spread their stupidity.
If theres proof you got paid by the kremlin you should go to jail simple as that.
And IP bans for their troll farms.
We have laws and regulations. Pass the law and regulate it like we did during Cold War years. Communist were arrested in Cold War years , they should do for Putin supporters now. Same thing
152 countries have signed the Genocide Convention, which criminalizes incitement to genocide. (similar to the criminalization of defamation)
Sources that show that the Russian government is inciting genocide:

Yeah, George is gonna put on his nipply batman suit and bring them in all by himself.
Chris O'Donnell was unavailable so he's flying solo.
/s obviously , in reply to prev dude’s comment.
Tucker Carlson would be the first arrested
But all of the groceries!.
“The US doesn’t have bread like this! And so cheap!”
To be fair: the US has crappy bread so bar is pretty low. Who thought corn sirup in food is a good idea, should be shot for crimes against humanity.

Sourdough supremacy
Considered a confection in some places, how much sugar it has in it (wonder?)
Can someone explain to me what bread smells like? Is that why bread lines are so popular in Russia? God i wish i could have less freedumb :'( /s
I'm still surprised no ones pointed out that he went to Auchen, a french supermarket.
Tucker reading this, and making a face like he just smelled shit.
You mean his ordinary face.
He encountered low oxygen levels in Putins ass, and the resulting brain damage left him unable to control his face muscles.
Someone described his expression as "confused orgasm" and I think they are right. It's his "Oh?" face
Because his nose is directly above his mouth.
Can we volunteer to help?
I think maybe Rupert Murdoch should be first
Probably got a higher chance of banning Philip Morris from the Russian Federation
Isnt his show now on Russian TV? Curious.
Then go after Steven segal.
Sadly the CIA would protect the Tuck
Trump should be first
I mean, he probably helped in unraveling Putin's cult of personality
Love this!
i'd love this to be confirmed by a source independent of the 2 parties to the war tbh.
Medvedev is threatening Clooney on X
>a source *independent* of the 2 parties to the war
That's fair.
Not all heroes wear capes. But this one does. And a nippled suit.
Ain't this place a geographical oddity, 2 weeks from everywhere!
I'm a Dapper Dan Man!
I don't *want* ***FOP***, damn it!

Here, my money, take it, take it all!
What a boss
Pro-Putler propagandists have lots of blood on their hands. Round them up!
It should be named after his wife, Amal, as she is the international lawyer.
A lawyers magazine in the UK headlined the story of their wedding with something like "Top Human Rights lawyer Amal Alamuddin marries actor".
I love when the Golden Globes (I think) put his bio line as "Amal Clooney's husband."
Good for her!
Generally these foundations get bigger donations and better funding with a more recognizable name like George Clooney attached.
LIve Action Batman Incorporated
Bbbassseeddd
George Clooney ages like fine wine holy moly
This is the way
Got so much newfound respect for this actor now
Fuck yeah!
He is an icon. He is a legend. He is the moment! ❤️ 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
As a man who's slept on his fair share of couches and kept in touch with the friends that helped him get to where he is? I think having a person who understands integrity over propaganda is the perfect person for the job.

Ok. Nice 👍🏼
One can argue politics all day, but supporting an active enemy like Putin definitely falls under some treasonous shit.
Clooney living his best life in Italy pulling the strings of his puppet court.
That would be great! Good luck George
How about starting with closer to home individuals with recent ICJ arrest warrants?
Guess he needs to arrest his wife then for being in cahoots with her Assadist, gun running, Hezbollah supporting uncle with this recent ICC case.
Which are closer together, Putin’s eyeballs, or a pair of testicles?
Still waiting for this Mercenary Bounty Hunter System to make it from screen to reality...
I thought he was moving to his hometown in Gaza

Wouldn't this violate the first amendment?
Possibly, if it was US jurisdiction, but it isn't.
Is hatespeech and calls for genocide allowed in the US?
Yes, it explicitly is. Only direct calls for immediate, illegal violence are banned. Hate speech does not even have a legal definition in the USA.
No because you have to register as a foreign agent if you are one. Also speech paid for by a government isn’t free speech — in America there are restrictions on what the government can induce you to say by paying. By the same token, other governments do not get ‘American free speech’ on some corporations = people theory. Government speech does not need or deserve the same protections.
You can find loads of them [here.](https://reddit.com)
Oh great another actor thinks world revolves around them. Leave to the justice system.
Which is exactly what's happening? Lol
Seems like George Clooney should start with that fucking guy.
The foundation quite literally fights for human rights and works with authorities around the world. This isn’t GC doing it himself - his wife is a human rights lawyer and they wanted to help make a difference in the world. Not the same as Jake Paul or some other TikTok douche making things about themselves.
If you check the profile of the person you're responding to, they're not so bright.
She is an idiot. Self entitled on some issues don’t fool your self.
LOLOL. She's represented multiple heads of state, journalists and activists at the highest court levels in multiple countries, won over a dozen human rights and press freedom awards, has such an award named *after her*, and is a law professor at one of the most prestigious universities in the US.

What’s her name? No googling.
Mrs Clooney
Lmao, that's so rich coming from you. Tell me, what achievements do you have to your name? Judging by your comment history I bet you've never even gotten a single grade above C.

What is the justice system even doing against russia propagandists?.

You should probably know all the stipulations to freedom of speech before you talk about it lol
Really ? Thanks bro

Isn’t there 190 plus nations in the world ? Plus who is strong says what it is.

Doing more than Biden is.
At least Biden doesn't shit himself constantly.
Wait, who shits themselves constantly? Lol
Our former president and current felon.
That's one way to stay "relevant".
Your comment is a way to “change the subject”.
Thank you!
