alt Hacker NewsAlbania Is Not for Sale: Kushner's $4B Resort Triggers'Flamingo Revolution'
Comments
The rich are getting too openly greedy and complacent again, they're slowly forgetting about history, can't wait to see how it pans out in the next decades.
Half of Albania is butchered like this, beaches and green being destroyed to make resorts for the tourists to come. Go see Dermi or Vuno and then go see Borsh how clean it is, with no excavations at all or resorts being build.
I wonder how many more things like this are happening under the radar around the world
It is just Russia trying to undermine US president! We seen this type of protests several times!
It’s crazy that the US is now run by these clowns out to enrich themselves
I thought Albania still had concrete bunkers around the coast to keep unwanted invaders OUT.
The T family acts as everyone expected and warned, they are not stopping, and they are even accelerating. I'm not sure what is the conclusion from this.
Silver lining - It's not oil/gas extraction or mining.
Trump is gonna put tariffs on Albania very soon
Somewhat higher stakes version of the Trump Aberdeen golf course:

The evidence so far hints more at Albania’s weak rule of law/property/environmental governance and ugly conflict-of-interest more than Kushner being part of some evil conspiracy.
This island was a Russian naval base in the cold war with hundreds of underground nuclear bunkers.
Kushner apparently wants to build a billionaire resort with the protections required to insulate billionaires from their actions. Maybe UAE is too dangerous now.
Here is another article. Try not to be put off by the Rothchild connections, they are mostly irrelevant and based on Kushner's own statements:

Some of the messaging around this by the people trying to build this out is so tone deaf. I think they know and that's why they're building bunkers.
Weird flagging in this submission. Pointing out that billionaires build nuclear bunkers is not allowed even though it is public knowledge.
YES! More of this. Such places and people are not for sale. What kind of sickos think they can just see a place and say "I've got money, these know-nothing-barefoot-fools will take our money and let us rape their lands!"?
And on top of that it's Trump kids, yeet them into the sea.
The USA is currently run by oligarchs. They try to buy their way into other countries via corruption. How much kickback did the government of Albania get already? It is highly suspicious how supportive they are of Trump.
This is off topic and I understand we’re not supposed to comment on such things, but was anyone else mystified by the decisions that went into the scroll progress bar up top (on mobile)? It seems to be two part, where part of it would accurately reflect your scroll state, while the other had some weird latency associated with it. And then it ended up hidden behind the top of page blur unless you scrolled very aggressively, to the point where the blur could not keep up.
Jared Kushner tried a similar thing in Serbia[0] and failed after a public outrage.
