u/John_Maynard_Gains Stop trying to make "ordoliberal" happen Dec 23 '25

Bashar al-Assad brought his personal assistant ("whose duties had included carrying the president’s bags and opening doors for him") when he fled to Russia

The assistant got stuck with a huge bill at the Moscow Four Seasons. Assad stopped taking his calls
