As for Adams, his victory is pretty much because he

2) Was not for defund the police or kick Asian kids out of specialized high schools.
3) AOC and progressives were fully focused on Andrew Yang's "Israel connection" and Adams was protected due to #1.

Edit - BTW the presidential records act, a law put in place in the aftermath of Nixon’s misdeeds, is a good example of how to construct the rule of law to dissuade corruption. And this past week, guess who expressed a legal opinion that we no longer need the Presidential Records Act? Yes, Mr Trump’s DOJ.

Like different Christian priests have fist fights with each other on certain days of the year over priority at their disputed holy spots. It’s wild.

destinyofdoors17 hr ago

The brawl wasn't over the ladder. The brawl in 1902 was over whether sweeping the steps to one of the chapels was the prerogative of the Greeks or the (Catholic) Franciscans. Or maybe you are referring to the brawl in 2002 when a Coptic monk moved his chair on the roof so he would be in the shade, and the Ethiopian monastery took that as an act of encroachment. Or in 2004, when the Franciscan chapel's door was left open during a Greek Orthodox ceremony (the Catholics felt it was an act of disrespect). Or in 2008 when the Armenian Orthodox and Greek Orthodox brawled over participation in a procession on Palm Sunday. Or perhaps you were referring to later in 2008, when the Greeks and the Armenians went at it again, this time over competing claims to the chapel assumed to be the actual tomb of Jesus.
The Immovable Ladder happened to be set up at the time the Status Quo decree in 1853, and, because it is not clearly in the territory of any one denomination, unanimous consent of all six tenant churches (Catholic, Greek, Armenian, Coptic, Syriac, and Ethiopian) is required to move it, so it stays in place.

Canadian here, spent years working in remote northern Albania. It’s one of those places where money opens doors fast and the right “friends” make things happen. There’s long been a reputation for spooks & security types and back-channel networks if you know where to look. Albanians tend to be very pro-American, largely because of NATO’s role in the Balkans, and the U.S. presence in Tirana is hard to miss. CIA everywhere. Durres, as the main port, used to be a major gateway for smuggled goods moving quietly into Europe, with a strong knockoff and grey-market culture baked in. I haven’t been back in 13 years and by all accounts it’s changing quickly, modernizing and cleaning up, but like anywhere that once had North Korea style tight controls on movement and trade, informal economies filled the gaps—and those systems don’t just disappear overnight. A great place to be an upstanding criminal and influencer.

Albania is an insult to the term banana republic.
What a joke.

Weirdly enough not only do they have an extradition treaty with the US, it was updated in 2020 for the first time since the 1930's. It even specifically includes broad categories of white collar crimes under its "no safe haven" structuring.
