Day 518
It's Trevor all over again
Z’s fishy business partner, parliament deputy Yuri Aristov, head of parliament’s budget committee and deputy chair of the Rada’s national security and defense committee, has resigned. His mandate is up for grabs following reports that he vacationed this summer in the Republic of Maldives. The pudgy 48-year old can now dedicate all his free time to Atlantic-Yumma, Oysters Kava Bar and Fish House.
And in other news of the weird, this, again:
Trevor Reed, the deranged ex-U.S. Marine who made his way to Ukraine after being swapped out of jail for a Russian cocaine dealer, suffered shrapnel wounds to legs near Bakhmut and was evacuated to Germany.
No one is quite sure — or saying — what, exactly, he was doing in Ukraine, whether he ditched his Russian girlfriend or if he joined the International Legion. And no one is very interested, because Trevor is from Texas.
According to Jake, Trevor speakes, sleeps and dreams in Russian. This is not necessarily a great skill to have when you’re trying to communicate with your brother Ukrainian soldiers. We wish Trevor the best and hope he returns to Texas. Permanently.
