The story is still developing...

Although, my guess is he scammed someone near the top, for them to be interested enough to swing a “not technically extradition”.

Ummm, would I look bad if I said that shithead deserves it all, breakfast, lunch and dinner? Not only for his crimes but also because he helped make honest Nigerians struggle harder to seek work or business abroad because of this major AH and the others, like this other guy who just pleaded guilty in Chicago IIRC.

So America is back in the black people import business?

Possibility 2: What Bill says, plus a backchannel trade for someone in the US that the UAE wants.

Whoever made that dramatic video from the Dubai Police should be charged with a crime for thinking it was a good idea to make the entire video look like the opening credits for a mockbuster knockoff of The Matrix.

It sounds like the UAE said “you are a thief, we don’t want you in our country, we are putting you on a plane, don’t come back”. And the FBI said “since you are putting him on a plane, mind if we buy the ticket?”

Well, if he were a US Amercian, Trump would have promoted him as his next economic advisor.

Lol I know that quote wholly discredits his attorney as far as I’m concerned.

Who cares? Besides, don’t they have capital punishment for something like that in UAE? The F deserves everything coming his way.

That’s an interesting point. It reminds me of when W invaded Iraq but forbad the press from publishing pictures of the coffins returning. 

And don’t forget, Florida’s “Official” stats are flat out lies--things are undoubtedly even worse.

“if an aroma could be sensed, certainly a microscopic virus droplet could enter the mask”

I feel torn about this, because these people are so often dying alone, and televising such ill and vulnerable people feels ghoulish... but I have wondered if it would help? There have been no new cases for some time where I am, but a neighbouring state is in the midst of a nasty second wave. And some people are still…

Wishing you a swift recovery. Please continue to let us know how you are.

Im horrified we saw what happened in Italy and still try to deny what has already happened won't happen again.  I'm no religious but I do pray for the places like Florida and Texas.  I fear it's about to get a lot worse there based on what happened in Italy.

I wish all the big strong people who claim to be tougher than a virus, or that it’s a hoax would go work in the COVID wards and morgues. Then we’ll see what they’re really all about. 

DeSantis is a ghoul and has spent the last few weeks doing victory laps by giving HBCUs money and showing up at random hospitals in order to have doctors/CEOs back him up. He doesn’t answer questions from reporters and he’s more Trump than Trump simply because he has the mental faculties to act on his own. He refuses…

California is pretty shit right now, too. I have had covid symptoms since Friday (low fever and aches with flu-y tingly skin and now diarrhea) and a test pending even though I have done fucking everything right. I wear a mask every time I leave the house, even if I’m just going down to my car or to get my mail. I put…

And there are no guarantees. It isn’t just the red states.

Back in mid-April, early on a Sunday morning early in the quarantine and I was waking up, with WNYC on my bedside radio (NYC’s NPR affiliate), and there was an interview with a guy from the Bronx who needed work and thought it wouldn’t be too tough a job to do temporary work collecting bodies in Elmhurst Hospital and…
