Dominique Strauss-Kahn, the former head of the International Monetary Fund, has been formally placed under arrest by French police investigating an alleged prostitution ring.
I have written extensively about DSK (actually, all over the place), but his antics never cease to amaze me. It’s like when you think he cannot be more misogynistic, he surprises us all with a new development. Yet, of all the stuff about him, the one I have always found the most baffling was his aspiration (and Party endorsement) to run as Presidential candidate for the Socialist Party.
For the past decade and a half I have been making all my content available for free (and never behind a paywall) as an ongoing practice of ephemeral publishing. This site is no exception. If you wish to help offset my labor costs, you can donate on Paypal or you can subscribe to Patreon where I will not be putting my posts behind a lock but you'd be helping me continue making this work available for everyone. Thank you. Follow me on Twitter for new post updates.
