    With scandals in Russia, China, UK, Iceland, Ukraine, and more, perhaps a new rule: if you're in charge of a country, keep your money in it.

        @Snowden Was there a scandal in Russia? The reaction was mostly "meh, who cares, not a surprise." Nothing like Iceland.

        @RussiaConnects @Snowden Ukrainians were skeptical about Poroshenko anyways so not a big deal, but lack of reaction to Putin was weird.

        @RussiaConnects @Snowden Western press has discredited itself during these elections so I'd significantly lower expectations if I were you.)

        @Snowden Things will get really interesting when someone leaks data similar to the #panamapapers but from US banks targeting US citizens

        @Snowden Good idea. The USA should also keep their politicians at home, not standing with Neo-Nazis in Kiev's Maidan.

        @imgregorous TAXES These investments are why the US periodically passes amnesty bills to allow people to bring profits back home. CRIMINAL!!
