And the "joke" just keeps getting better and better...
Newark, New Jersey's Democratic-run city hall admitted last week to falling for a fraud when officials held a "Sister City" ceremony with the Hindu nation of "Kailasa"—a country that does not exist, created by an Indian cult leader on the run from the law over rape charges.

How the hell do they not assign an intern to do basic cultural research?
I don't expect every - or any! - elected official to know every single nation out there. But if this is going to be your sister nation, a basic google/Wikipedia to find out gift-giving protocols and maybe traditional greetings certainly seems like literally the VERY least you should be doing. And that would have saved a LOT of embarrassment.
This is incompetence and negligence born of hubris.

I know why they didn't care to research; Appearances are everything to Dem liberals. The Bonus- it was Done to tout their " Wokeness" but it proved their brain dead.
