Neumann is a brilliant con artist, and given that the "Deal of the Century" is a complete con this makes a perfect match.

FlamingLiberal posted:Does this plan also involve him walking away from a company with billions of dollars while the company dies I wasn't very excited about this story, since Kushner's peace plan was just "bribe the Palestinians with promises of economic development aid". But I clicked through anyway, and the headline and tweet absolutely do not do this story justice: quote:The rise and catastrophic downfall of WeWork founder and former CEO Adam Neumann has been chronicled in gleeful detail across the international financial press in the wake of his company’s ill-fated attempt at a public offering — which resulted in disastrous revelations about the company’s mismanagement, its devaluation and, ultimately, Neumann’s resignation.

The 22nd knesset lasted a couple of weeks longer than the 21st before disbanding itself, but the apparently inevitable finally happened, new elections on the second of march 2020.

He legally had to resign from his multiple roles as minister because the law says that a minister cannot reign while indicted, but this law does not apply to the prime ministry.

Nebalebadingdong posted:Apparently Netanyahu is resigning? Not quite. He's stepping down from his various cabinet positions, because Israeli law says that cabinet ministers facing criminal charges must resign. However, the law doesn't say the same for the PM spot, so he's holding onto the position of Prime Minister. If this seems weird, remember that in addition to being Prime Minister, Bibi was also the Minister of Agriculture, Minister of Diaspora Affairs, Minister of Health, and Minister of Welfare. The guy hoarded titles of power like a Crusader Kings II junkie, parceling them out to others only when forced to.

This is just embarrassing. Going to be missing out on this election, I can't keep flying over there and wasting all my vacation days and money on these things. Especially since there's nothing to suggest the results will be significantly different this time around.

I'm pretty sure Israel isn't the only place where getting indicted doesn't automatically make you a criminal in the legal sense. Though I could be wrong. If Bernie becomes the next POTUS and some republican-controlled court indicts him over some madeup bullshit, does he have to step down? Though yeah, Bibi is supremely corrupt.

Bold prediction time - Bibi('s coalition) is going to decisively win this election. Likud and Ultra-Orthodox parties can reliably turn out their voters, while the secular centrist void at the heart of the Blue and White voter "base" is already going into full apathy mode. "A third election in two years, this is ridiculous! Why isn't there a magical unity government that makes me feel comfortable already? What the gently caress is even the point in voting then?" I hope I am wrong on this.

For a POTUS, indiction is not legally possible as long as they aren't impeached first. Once impeached, then they can be indicted. Which allows Republicans to parade Trump's lack of indiction as proof of his innocence and therefore why he shouldn't be impeached.

Cat Mattress posted:Yeah, I'm shortcutting. It's just funny that something that causes a Minister to be unfit for office doesn't make a Prime Minister unfit for office. The reasoning in my head (ie probably the wrong one) is that the PM is an elected office, while the PM is the one choosing the other ministers. Of course the PM isn't directly elected (except when he is, there were a couple times where you'd vote both for your preferred PM and your preferred party, which didn't have to be related to each other).

He was health minister because the actual health minister (noted pedophile-enabler Yaakov Litzman of UTJ) refuses most of the time to be anything other than deputy health minister for very important haredi reasons. He was also communications minister until the indictments blew up because, as the indictments make crystal clear, micromanaging the media is near and dear to his heart. Most of the rest (along with other important roles like foreign minister) have been held by him 'temporarily' to give him leverage when doing coalition deals, but one begins to get the impression he finds "other people in government" annoying.
