Heck Yes! Loam! posted:Yeah, how is this different than any person donating to both parties to secure influence? I'd say there's a difference between donating to one person vs. a group but this is a valid point. Regardless this kind of influence peddling needs to stop altogether regardless of political party.

blavatnik has very substantial investments in US companies so you need to distinguish him buying influence on behalf of his us companies vs buying influence on behalf of russia

Maggie Haberman is getting slaughered in an AMA on the politics subreddit, hasn't answered any questions yet and mods have already deleted the top question asking about her relationship with Trump in exchange for access.

Have you followed her at all? She actively carries water for the Trump admin in exchange for access. Do you think she was just some nobody plucked from the NYT to do an AMA?

Maybe, although I think it's at least as likely that she asked Bari Weiss, "Bari, how do I appeal to your fellow millennials?" And Bari Weiss, being the shittiest millennial of all, said, "Try doing an AMA!"

VitalSigns posted:then she should say that instead of ignoring the question imo no, there's no excuse for it. Like, the WSJ opinion section is a tire fire, but let's not forget that the business editor allowed them to singlehandedly topple Theranos, which was a both a personal embarrassment and large financial loss to Murdoch. NYT's management might be terrible but Haberman's actions reflect very poorly on her personally as well
