Our strength is a luminous sun, towards which all intelligence blossoms… And the impervious shelter, beneath which it has prospered.”

Sanctioning people into prosperity

My friends, we are so deep into Clown World that the people wearing spinning bowties and giant red size-18 shoes are the ones looking at the rest of us like we’re the complete unhinged lunatics. We keep being told that the sanctions are working against Russia,...
