> “Owing to the vast volume of business conducted for international clients, and The Bahamas’ openness as an international transshipment hub, the country is exposed to inherently high cross-border money laundering risks. The more vulnerable sectors are those which are internationally oriented and cash-intensive on the domestic level."

**Translation:** The Bahamas, as a small nation mired in unsustainable debt, with pervasive bribery and a corrupt ruling political class, is unsupportive of full enforcement of existing anti-money laundering laws for the very same reasons that it is against the introduction of a meaningful Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and election campaign finance reform. But why should any of this stop our nation and many of its more corrupt politicians from being engaged in lucrative offshore financial centre activities that are conducive to money laundering activities?

> “These [more vulnerable sectors] include retail and private banks, trust companies, credit unions, money transmission providers, financial corporate service providers, securities firms [such as administrators and brokers], casinos and gaming house operators.”

**Translation:** The domestic gaming houses, online gaming operations and real estate enterprises run by the corrupt scumbag likes of Sebas Bastian remain a real problem for how global financial regulators perceive the vulnerability of financial institutions domiciled in The Bahamas like banks, insurance companies, investment funds, foundations, etc., to money laundering activities, whether they be domestic or foreign owned. But scumbags like Sebas, just like many of our more corrupt politicians, deserve to make a living too!

> “The bulk of The Bahamas’ exposure to money laundering risks arises from predicate offences initiated overseas. The Bahamas is not known for the financing of terrorism and there have been no reports of domestic terrorist incidents."

**Translation:** The Bahamas has a perfectly good **lame** excuse for not having done so much more to combat money laundering over the years and so what if our small nation is truly clueless as the extent such illicit activities have contributed to terrorist acts elsewhere in the world.

>“The Bahamas, as an international transshipment hub and financial centre, is a potential transit point for illicit drugs and smuggling of migrants and firearms. Therefore, The Bahamas has an important part to play in the global effort against money laundering.”

**Translation:** The Bahamas is a victim of its geographic location and can only afford to adopt laws requested by the international community, but not enforce them. To enforce them would leave no money to flow into the pockets of our corrupt politicians and other senior government officials or, worse still, might expose them for being the thieves that they are.

My oh my.

The Cubans looked to the Soviet Union to protect them and we all know how that ended. Therefore your suggestion that we, the Bahamian people, should look to the PRC (Communist China) to protect us from the many transgressions our political leaders have committed against the U.S.A. is really quite laughable. Forgive me ChiCom robo-troller, but you have yet again proven just how poorly programmed you are.

Town Planning did the right thing for once by rejecting this ridiculous project that is so totally unsuitable to the area for many reasons. Then along comes corrupt Chester the Jester to persuade the appeals board to overrule and undermine Town Planning's sensible decision to reject this absurd project.

This yapping white-haired poodle refuses to accept that he has been politically neutered. Jibrilu wants him back, but that ain't ever gonna happen. LOL

> “The government has the mind of the Bahamian people first and foremost. Whatever happens, the government has to be involved in the process and, ultimately, they have to come to government to effect any kind of order or any kind of result that they achieve, and the government –– when they approach that –– they will approach that with the mindset of Bahamians first,” Mr Pinder said.

What a dumber than dumb arsehole! No doubt dingbat Pinder also believes the swindling of mega millions of dollars from Izmirlian in the first place, as aided and abetted by the PLP likes of Vomit Christie, Wicked Witch Maynard-Gibson, Bag Man Bethel, and a few others like them, was similarly in the interest of the Bahamian people. And no doubt Pinder has been put Justice Winder on notice that his 'services' may be needed again on behalf of the PLP hierarchy in yet another Izmirlian-related matter.

I suspect most Bahamians do not even know that our bozo AG was born on U.S. soil as a U.S. citizen. Trump, Musk and Patel need to look into the reason why this guy was so quick to renounce his U.S. citizenship.

With Tesla stock's post-election stellar price performance, Elon Musk's net worth is rapidly approaching $500 billion, i.e. $500,000,000,000. That's more than 40 times the entire national debt of the Bahamas inclusive of all unfunded entitlements.

At the post-election party Trump hosted at Mar a Lago, Trump with a crystal glass full of ginger ale, and Musk with a crystal glass full of a much more expensive bubbly, exchanged the following toasts to each other:

- Trump toasted: "To my adopted new son, Elon"
- Musk toasted: "To my adopted new dad, Donald"

Buckle up Bahamians! It's only a matter of time now before the Bahamas becomes a big red blinking blip on the radar screen of Trump, Musk and DeSantis.

As a people we should never have allowed our successive governments (especially PLP government leaders like Fwreddy Boy Mitchell) to have antagonized or taken advantage of successive U.S. administrations in so many ways for so many years. No doubt classified DEA and U.S. Coast Guard reports show that the governments we, the Bahamian people, so foolishly elected have done little if anything to prevent harmful drugs, humans, weapons, etc. from being trafficked into the U.S. through our country.

And while Canada, Mexico, and European nations are all scrambling like the dickens to show that they are willing to do their part (and pay their fair share) to stop nasty things from happening to their most important ally and trading partner, our stupid government simply persists in doing any and everything it can to threaten the national security interests of the U.S.A. This does not come without undesirable consequences for our small nation and our people. Just take a good look at Cuba today, or for that matter Haiti.

And we all know the "God" you worship has horns and breathes fire and is the very reason why St. Peter stands guard at the pearly gates.

LMAO. Most Bahamians will not get the subtle message Trump is sending our corrupt PLP government with this appointment, i.e. a failed nation deserves a failed politician. Walker has no meaningful political connections in the U.S. in his own right that could be used to help work around or diffuse what Trump and DeSantis ultimately have in store for our small nation. We are going to be made to pay for Fwreddy Boy Mitchell's many transgressions against U.S. foreign policy and U.S. national security interests. As many of us know only too well, Fwreddy Boy has gone out of his way over many years to make The Bahamas an inflamed and most annoying pimple on the backside of the U.S.A.

> However, Ryan Pinder KC, the attorney general, today said the Davis administration was not worried by the New York appeals court's decision and its impact as the Government "has to be involved" in whatever developments take place.

ROWFL. This dingbat of an AG obviously does not seem to appreciate that the whole Baha Mar debacle in which mega millions were swindled from Izmirlian arose from the involvement and very corrupt deeds of the greedy likes of Perry "Vomit" Christie, Allyson "Wicked Witch" Maynard-Gibson, Baltron "Bag Man" Bethel and a few others, including the PLP's favourite Judge in our judiciary system.

Money laundering was legalized in The Bahamas when Vomit Christie 'legalized' the illegal gambling operations run by the numbers bosses like that notorious scumbag Sebas Bastian. And to think this was done against the will of the Bahamian people as expressed in a duly held national referendum that Vomit later claimed was a mere unofficial survey. Talk about crooked!!
