        I’m quite sure he has already offered, but in Helsinki their private meeting was kept off the books, so we’ll never know.

        He can offer them to run an insurrection in the US if paid enough. >!Then proceed to do nothing and disappear when someone actually asks for results!<

            Luckily Soviet Russia is gone (for now 🤔) and they seem to let go more easily if you don’t commit some really atrocious crime like spreading stickers in the shop, posting online, or standing on the streets with a Constitution quotes. If you took some millions and ran away, just be diligent and spare some of the money and they couldn’t care less.

            This may not reflect the real state of affairs but is a good approximation

              “In Soviet Russia…” is a meme based on a quote from the TV show The Simpson’s.

              Though Putin’s Russia is not really so different.

                Yeah, I know just wanted to be a bit of bummer. TBF Soviet Russia seem to be good for memes or sci-fi but not much else, anyway. Appreciate you being helpful and explaining, though.

      Major breakthrough every week. Usually water pipes, but sometimes dams and sewers.
