TEN LIES TOLD BY MARCO RUBIO AT HIS ANTI-LEFT SUMMIT
-U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio delivered a speech today at the State Department headquarters in Washington during the opening of the Ministerial Meeting on the Resurgence of Political Terrorism.
-The meeting was attended by delegations from 66 countries in the Americas, Europe, and Asia, represented by foreign and interior ministers, security officials, diplomats, and counter terrorism experts.

· 98 gasoline (78.19 ₽): ≈ 0.91 USD / 0.84 EUR

A quick commentary on the "Piss Summit"
I might not be able to upload much more or do lives for a while

My Fellow Duranianss.

Yes, it's happened again. I have been assaulted by a vicious Malware Bot Virus or whatever 911 Socks is and this thing is bad ! 

However I wanted to give you a "peace" of my mind concerning the "Piece" or piss, as Elensky calls it, as this thing fell to pieces before it even happened.

Hope to see you all asap.
