5. "...acting ambassador..."

Sun Mar 15, 2026, 11:27 AM

Sunday

This far into the regime and many ambassador posts empty, even in key countries. And Trump couldn't even be bothered to get one of his business buddies or family members who usually handle important matters to step up to evacuate US citizens.

Lesson: This situation is like the vaccine situation, the education situation, or any other situation affecting the hoi-polloi. Under an authoritarian regime you have to be extremely proactive in taking care of yourself. The rule is, everyone for themselves and the devil take the hindmost.
