The Ukranian oligarch who potentially has dirt on Manafort/Donny's buddies (Rachel Maddow discussed this last night) is being extradited.

Chicago Tribune posted:

An Austrian court on Tuesday approved a U.S. extradition request for a Ukrainian oligarch suspected of paying millions of dollars in bribes to Indian officials.

The court decision overturns a lower court ruling nearly two years ago against extraditing Dymitro Firtash. The judge then said that the U.S. move was at least partially politically motivated through links to political events in Ukraine, and not supported by sufficient evidence.

Extradition, however, is still not a certainty. Leo Levnaic-Iwanski, who headed the three-judge panel of the Upper State Court, said the final decision will be made by Justice Minister Wolfgang Brandstetter.

Firtash was indicted in Chicago by a U.S. grand jury in 2012 for allegedly paying off officials through U.S. banks in a failed attempt to secure titanium mining rights in India worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

...

News reports tie him to business dealings with lobbyist Paul Manafort, an adviser to Donald Trump during his U.S. presidential election campaign. Manafort also advised Yanukovych during a re-election bid.

is this good or bad, I figure if he's extradited to the USA then Trump et al will snub him.

Everything is extremely bad, tovarisch. I guess what's interesting is Sessions is actually (seemingly) pursuing him, which was an open question last night. I don't know if anything will come of this but it's yet another shady guy with Russian connections who just so happens to be one or two degrees from (illegitimate) President Peepeeman.

It's so depressing. I read that if "didn't vote" was a candidate, the concept of not voting would've won just about every state. How hosed up is that? Australia and Mexico's mandatory voting laws are a good idea, in my opinion.

A Buff Gay Dude posted:

No, they didn't. They've had 8 years of a fairly competent if slightly hamstrung fed gov that was neoliberal but at least not actively trying to gently caress them in the rear end.

Now we have president Donald Trump because the dems ran a real bad and uninspiring candidate who thought she had it in the bag.
People have no idea what government is, what it does, or how it functions. I keep saying this but I'll say it again. This ignorance isn't because they are dumb or bad people. It's the confluence of an 1) education system that teaches for tests 2) a culture that downplays the importance of participation in society and democracy 3) a media seeking profit above everything else (butter emails are more profitable than real reporting).

Peop;e really thought that the norms of a functioning society were stable regardless of who was president. Trump rapidly disillusioned them of that.
That's an interesting factor too. Many people have spent decades of their lives assuming this. It's the root of the "both sides are the same" fallacy. In a morbid way, it's good that Donald has shown people how delicate democracy is... it's just not good that he might cause catastrophic damage in the process.

that and lots of people thought that she would coast into the WH so didn't show up because someone else would

or they literally couldn't vote because of voter suppression

That too. That's the fourth pillar of the "gently caress democracy" strategy of the right.
