Its engagdement. Even if you post on his shit to say he is a lying sack of shit, thats still a response and it means he is driving traffic, which makes him more attractive to advertisers. So even if 99% of the people are saying they hate him, he still belongs on the list if people are responding to his act.

Apparently this kicked off 3 weeks ago and was due to Russian customs finding a selection of vaping cartridges with hashish oil in them in her luggage.

So, self inflicted, fecking stupid, minimal sympathy for the stupidity, slight more sympathy it happening right now.

Anyone bringing Drugs into Russia when tensions were rising deserves everything they get. I'm sorry. There's stupidity, and there is selling your brain to get high.

That’s the story. But how would we know it’s true?

If true, that's dumb. But they could possibly be, for example, Delta 8 extract or Delta 10 extract, which are oils derived from marijuana (hashish is just something you can make with marijuana) but which are totally legal in the US, sold in every vape store in this great land of ours. Only Delta 9 is illegal in some states.

Still dumb to take them to Russia, but it might be a lot more innocent than it sounds.

Russia calls on EU, NATO to stop arms supplies to Ukraine

https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/ru ... ce=twitter
Russia's foreign ministry called on European Union and NATO countries on Saturday to "stop pumping weapons" to Ukraine, the Russian RIA news agency said.

It said Moscow was particularly worried that portable anti-aerial Stinger missiles could end up in the hands of terrorists, posing a threat to airlines.
